🔋 Lixada Solar Panel Charger USB Port - Compact Monocrystalline Silicon Power Bank for Cell Phone Charging during Camping Trips Review

used to power/charge remote input sensors in a security system works great, mounted the USB and still haven't had any water issues, I put a layer of flexseal on the USB ports after connecting Applied, May not be the advertised 10W, but the best performance for the price I've found in a semi-open panel as it performs outdoors remains to be seen, but it charges 4 18650 PSUs in 5-6 hours at good Sun up , well brought up feels good in low light, and supports my driving safety sensors, don't worry…

When I bought this solar panel I was being polite as they produced 10 watts from such a small panel. After checking with a wattmeter, I can say that this is not true. The absolute maximum I was able to test was 4.7 watts on a very bright, cloudless day. However, the actual reload test I ran was pretty impressive. I was able to charge my iPhone in three hours and my iPad in six hours. Bottom line for me is the specs are off but I can live with the real life performance. By the way, I put rubber…

The best thing about this product is its incredibly light weight of less than 4 ounces (measured at 98g on my scale), making it ideal for wilderness trips and hikes you feel every gram you carry with you. Unfortunately, it's advertised as 10W as others have stated it's a long way off. My first two samples only produced 1.2W and 2W respectively, measured with a Drok USB multimeter. I was about to give up on the poor quality control of this product, but the next best example cost 50% more and…

I am very satisfied with the Lixada 10W solar panel. On a bright, clear day at 78F/25.5C it put out 429mA according to my Android phone. That's about twice the displayed power of the powered USB hub I use at work or which my laptop powers directly. The panel easily outperforms small "cube" type wall chargers at the reported charge rate. I was just looking for a small emergency charging pad and it should fit. Build quality is good, nothing special. The panel itself feels like a card made from…

The panel is well made (although the USB port cover is flimsy) but it's a 5w panel not the 10w panel as advertised hence the other negative reviews and my low rating. A normal charge these days is at least 1000mA. In direct sunlight, I couldn't get more than 440mA. It works, it's just not a 10W panel and it usually charges very slowly. Why does it matter? A standard charge of 1000mA at 5V is 5W. If the panel is rated for 5 watts then it needs the perfect weather/time/position to do it. A 10W…

I bought this panel for ultra light touring and it exceeds all expectations at an amazing price. It can draw about 4 watts of power in full sunlight (AND NO MORE THAN THAT). I've trimmed the edges and reduced the weight to 2.4 ounces - it's really light and its plastic coating is strong. It turns on my iPhone 6 with no problems. Just remember that the second you walk under a tree or turn your back on the sun, your iPhone will stop charging and you need to plug it back in. Therefore, the most…

This product works for the very specific purpose I had in mind. This review isn't about testing panel specs like some others do, but I have no reason to question other reviewers' conclusions. But then again, these panels cheaply do what I want, which is relatively low current at a nominal 5V. I use these panels to maintain a constant charge on a pair of Lorex wireless outdoor security cameras. Lorex cameras use a removable battery; It's weatherproof and rated for weeks on a single charge, but…

*Updated review after using the panel for my hike north on the John Muir Trail. The panel worked flawlessly in combination with the 15,000 mAh battery. However, I could probably use the 10,000mAh battery to keep the extra weight down. Battery size is a risk management decision as weather and cloudiness are always uncertain. The panel does not work well under cloudy skies. The plate was strapped to the top of the pack to maximize power collection. The solar panel provided enough power to be…
