Phoneix: robust solar bag for emergencies and outdoor adventures

I was looking for a solar generator for camping and emergencies. The Firefly has always been on my radar, but it didn't have a removable battery. Phoenix does. It's solidly built and had no trouble powering my VR gaming PC when we had a power outage. It also gives you multiple ways to charge, which is handy. Assembly and packaging: The device was packaged quite well. I couldn't find a scratch on the block. Everything you need was included, including a bundle of cables and an instruction manual. It's not the lightest solar charger, but it's pretty easy to take with you. You don't want to leave it out in the rain or submerge it under water. In addition, it makes a fairly durable impression. Recharge: You can change the briefcase in several ways. I only loaded outside. I like the fact that the device shows the level of sun exposure. You should have as many strips as possible to speed up charging. Add additional solar panels for even faster charging. Testing: I've used Phoenix to power my gaming PC, Dobot robot, camera charger, smartphone, and tablet. However, I have not tested this with a heater or air cooler. You need to do your homework not to overwhelm it. The fan keeps the Phoenix cool, but I decided to leave it open just in case. Overall, the Phoenix is one of the best solar chargers I've tested and owned. It's only been a few weeks though, so who knows how things will change a year from now. Although so far so good.

Pros
  • So far satisfied
Cons
  • So far so good
