This product is easy to use and works as advertised. It will charge an iPhone 13 several times. It is durable and charged in partial sunlight and full sunlight.
El problema que tengo es que lo he dejado al sol tres das seguidos y no sube ni un punto de carga
Liked it very much. Easy to use, charging is great.
No complaints. Solar panel is an emergency backup, expect it to take weeks to charge that way and best use is a means of getting 3-5% phone battery charge or however much is necessary for an emergency phone call, etc.
I’ll admit that it is the first battery pack I’ve had in years, however it’s superb for my uses. I’m in construction. This big guy has seen its fare share of bruises, and it still works perfectly. Its able to charge my phone almost 6 times in one full charge. The only thing about this that may be a gimmick is the solar. It would be great in an emergency, but otherwise it shows no application for day to day utilization. If you just needed to get your phone to turn on long enough to make a phone call for help, it would come in handy, but not for much else. I’d rather have it and not need it, though.
It has some weight to it, but big batteries tend to have that, I wish there was a spot for the cable but I just use a wrist band. 3x, 4x charge your phone so you have days of power, yes I would have like more ports to charge, but it wouldn’t be as portable, nor as light, this is perfect for your bag. Bigger ones perfect for your car. If I’m at the beach, or the park, or the forest or mountain, or suburbs or the city, wherever I can find sun light I can charge this power bank, super durable, I can believe the water proof with the tight cover for the sockets. Small enough to fit in your pocket, with this there is no fear, not even the dark as it has a flashlight option. This should be your first power bank, large ones second and a solar power station last.
This is a great battery pack. I carry it with me most days in my bag. It is heavy, so sometimes it doesn’t make sense. You can charge two things on it. It has a great battery life. It also is very good at holding its store of power for when you really need it.
I’m sure they’ll be able to make these lighter soon, and I would upgrade to a lighter one, but I wouldn’t buy another brand of this product. By far the best one I’ve used so far.
Love this product! Charged my phone 6 x’s with no problems always on the go
When not in useI charge it in the sunaloha
That being said they DO work, just very slowly. Haven’t encountered a problem with this device, everything works as Intended. I love it.
Used this on a recent road trip. We had 5 phones constantly using the charger and it lasted the whole 5 days without recharging. The solar option really makes a difference.
Bought this as a charger, the solar portion is just an added benefit. In my opinion Anker makes the best quality chargers out there.
The power bank is nicely packaged and very well built. Instructions are awful and there is no battery status indicator (or at least I cannot find a way to display it) unless you are charging the unit.
Capacity claims seem accurate (I did a discharge test) and charging is slow but works well. We live in Texas and I have not been able to get the solar charging indicators to come on, so I cannot verify how long it takes to charge using the solar panel. However it warns that this could takes days for a discharged unit (or, again, I think that is what it says).
This is a very reasonably priced, well made, high capacity power bank but has awful instructions and the lack of a status indicator when discharging seems to be a shortcoming which makes it less useful.
Recommended (especially at the discount price).
I highly recommend one for every home! Hands down superior to the rest I’ve tried!
Awesome product works as should, perfect for hiking, bigger than most portable chargers of the same amps but that’s to be expected for it being sola
I have been an Anker user for years. This was an excellent purchase. I can keep wife’s iPhone and mine charged for entire day of outdoor travel. It does have a little heft to it but that’s the trade off for staying “connected” to the InterWeb.
While this unit only has one USB port and a single USB-C charging connection, it’s proven it’s worth dozens of times over during the few months that I have owned it. I would have also liked a micro-USB connection and a second USB port, but I wonder how those would have impacted this battery pack’s performance. (Sorry, I’m not an electrical engineer – would multiple ports generate too much heat? Incidentally, this item does feature a simple overheat indicator if your solar charging is too aggressive.) Whether you’re plugged into an AC outlet to recharge or relying on the capable solar panel, it takes a while to get a full charge, but once achieved, that’s where this Anker product really shines (literally & figuratively). The end has three LEDs which together feature high, low, or 3-flash signal settings, lighting up a campsite, roadside tire change, or indoor living space with a wide-area radiant glow. I can easily charge two Anker flashlights, an iPad/Kindle, a Bluetooth headset and a smartphone, with plenty of power left in reserve for more phone recharging and the ever-present solar panel always willing to contribute more. A couple of anchor points on the outer casing would be a welcome addition to allow for attachment to a pack or dashboard with more than a built-in lanyard. In the end, this is a solid investment in mobile power. It could benefit from a couple small improvements, but really the only drawback I foresee is weight – don’t pack this for your ultralight backpacking adventure! If you’re on the fence about this one, take a chance – Anker has made a great one and you’ll find it worth the price! FWIW, save it to your shopping cart and wait for a sale price update, perhaps during Cyber Monday or Amazon Days. Got a great deal this way!
Wish it had one more USB port but great other wise
Plenty of juice for charging your devices and built like small tank. Solar charging takes days literally, I am not even sure how many. Not even worth trying, you need to keep getting it into the shade as it will overheat.
Charges my phone as many times as advertised, this is a large package to those of you wondering. It feels quality made and was all I was looking for in an external power source!
The coming eco crisis requires solar energy. So, here we are!
The quality and battery life is superb. We use it for the beach, and it keeps up with all of our devices through solar as we charge continuously on a long day.
This product is not the size of a cellphone as it stated by the seller/manufacturer. It’s way huger and heavier than that.
This only charges via USB-C or solar. The solar panel takes a LONG time to charge this. Like more than 2 days in the direct Colorado summer sun to go from half charged to fully charged
I’m using this to replace my old one. My only beef is that it seems a bit slow to charge things. My LG phone is able to charge really quickly if the powersupply can supply enough juice fast enough (amps I guess). Not on this one.
Took this power bank with us for a road trip. This power bank did charge with sunlight when I kept it on the car’s dash board.
I’ve been wanting a portable charger for so long since I live in Puerto Rico and the electricity may go away at any time. This is a perfect portable charger and the solar recharge it’s a big plus for it.
A bit heavy, but worth the price. Does take a long time to charge with solar power, but overall a great buy
Just received this so I don’t have a lot of experience yet. Seems sturdy. I deducted a star for the terrible manual. It contains multiple languages- I counted 13. The bad part is that instead of all the English (or German or Korean etc) instructions being together, each section is printed in all 13 languages before continuing to the next section. Makes it hard to find what’s important. Plus, descriptions of led’s and functions are minimal.
Bought this as backup power supply and it works. Got what I expected but have not tested out solar charging to see if what other reviewers have said is true or not. Had it sitting around for two months and still had full charge for use.
Battery last long and great for back up flash light.
This is a very well built charger with the solar panel as a bonus! Type C and a Type A charging ports work well, too.
I’m still testing all the different uses I will have for this, but so far it’s exactly what I needed to charge my iPad, iPhone and AirPod pros.
Really love anker products. I have cords, power banks and speakers galore. Love the light on this. Plan to use it on our boat. It is quite hefty. Have had it about a week and one of the grippy feet on the bottom has already come off so I took a star off for that. I will see how well it holds up before the return window closes.
Excellent quality, which I have come to expect from Anker products. Provides 4 to 5 full charges on iPhone 8. Solar re-charge is slow, but it will get you going.
Charged my camp lantern, phone, and GoPro through the night. Left it in the sun all the next day and it was ready to charge my stuff again. Does exactly what you need it to and is built like a tank. Very happy with this purchase.
Wished it had one more usb but a powerful power bank.
I just received it recently and haven’t had enough experience with it to rate the remaining questions.
This is a great concept but charging by solar method is super slow, taking many full and sunny days to fully charge. Also missing link to actual electric outlet.
