Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I own several power banks and they all work well, the issue is that they require recharging which is sometimes not an easy task. I also own a couple of solar chargers, which tend to be finicky when it comes to charging some of my devices. In addition, they can be only be used on sunny days, and of course not at night. I looked at a few solar power banks that featured a single built-in solar panel. However, the reviews generally were not good as a single small solar panel takes an extremely long time to fully recharge a power bank. In search of a better solution, I went looking for a power bank with multiple solar panels and ended up purchasing the FEELLE 25000mAh Solar Charged Power Bank. At first, I was a little worried that this solar charged power bank would be cumbersome and awkward to use, however I discovered that the solar panels folded out quickly and easily and then folded back up just as easily into a neat compact package. I like that this solar charged power bank can also be used while folded up as the 2 USB ports are easily accessible whether the solar panels are open or closed. There is also a handy built-in light that can be operated with the solar panels folded back up. As for the power bank functionality, I found the charging output is very good and could charge some of my larger devices just a little over 1.9 amps (see pic). Note: #1 USB is rated at 1.8 amps, #2 USB is rated at 2.1 amps. I am also able to charge my phone several times before having to recharge the power bank. To recharge the power bank you simply fold out the solar panels and leave it in a sunny or well-lit area. The power bank charge status LEDs also serve as charging indicators that light up when the solar panels are working and charging the power bank. I found that these charging indicator lights come on even in indirect sunlight, indicating that the solar panels are capable of charging even when not directly in sunlight. Note: I don’t like leaving lithium batteries in direct sun due to heat concerns, so I always try and keep the power bank portion (battery) either positioned out of direct sunlight or I cover it with a cloth or whatever is handy. You can also recharge the power bank via a Micro-USB cable and a 5V power source. So far, I am very happy with the FEELLE 25000mAh Solar Charged Power Bank. I like that it is portable, easy to use, and can charge itself. If I experience any issues, I will update this review.
