Unfortunately it's very light on info Pretzy. Energizer SP1001. The PDF manual tells us very little.
1000mAh (presumably @5V USB) is less than most phone batteries. I reckon the solar panel would be so small as to be pretty much useless.
IMHO, plenty of these crappy gadgets about. Low capacity, little more than a nod to solar. For about the same money you could get an 18650 cell and ML-102 charger/USB supply. More capacity and more convenience.
Nice idea, but I'm still waiting for someone to make a serious attempt at this kind of product that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. (GoalZero) Until then we can only cobble stuff together from bits.
Yeah, I was only thinking it might be good to clip onto a pack and catch some charge on the run out in the bush.
I have a small rechargeable power pack, but it was the solar panel on this that caught my eye. And the compactness.
Looking around on ebay, there are better storage options, but unknown Chinese quality.
Guess in another 12 months technology may make these practical.
