Jackery Portable Solar Charger
Who doesn’t like to harness the power of the sun? Jackery’s portable solar panels and power stations are among the best there is. They are light weight and proven to work.
The 100W Solar Panel can be used to directly charge all of your mobile devices and other electronics. Even on a cloudy day, you can easily charge 2 USB devices at one time. At just over 9 pounds it is very portable. However, even when broken down to 22 x 24 x 1.8 inches it doesn’t exactly easily slip in to a backpack. Luckily, it does come with it’s own fabric carrying case with carrying straps.
One down side to solar panels, is that you have to use it while gathering power. If you’re out hiking and you bring your devices with you, the solar panels aren’t doing you any good.
If you are looking for more options and more capabilities, consider adding the Jackery 1000W Portable Power Station. Perfect for long camping trips or emergency situations, you can do a lot with this power station. You can run mini space heaters, fans, radios, small appliances or even a refrigerator.
Paired with 2 of the 100W Jackery Solar Panel you can fully recharge your power station in about 8 hours. You can also plug it in to a standard AC outlet and fully charge in about 7 hours or 14 hours from 12v car adapter.
One really cool feature here is that you can turn off the different outlets to eliminate energy leakage.
If you’re interested in a green, eco-friendly option and not be reliant on an electrical grid in an emergency situation this Jackery set up is something to consider.
