8W Foldable Solar Panel USB Charger
Keep the phone alive on a multi-day trip without carrying a brick.
An 8 W monocrystalline panel that folds to the size of a paperback and hangs off the back of your rucksack while you walk. In direct sunshine it pushes up to 1.2 A over USB, enough to top up a phone, a headtorch or a small power bank during the day. It is not a fast charger, and it will not do much under thick cloud, but on a sunny multi-day walk it means one less thing to ration.
Why we like it
- 8 W grade-A monocrystalline cells, over 19.8% efficiency
- USB output, 5 V up to 1.2 A (7 W maximum)
- Unfolds to 545 × 170 mm, folds to 170 × 105 × 30 mm
- 280 to 300 g, with eyelets to lash it to a pack or a tent
- Water-resistant fabric backing
Good to know
Solar panels charge best pointed directly at the sun, so a lunch stop with the panel laid out in the open beats a whole day angled on your back. The most reliable setup is panel into power bank by day, power bank into phone at night. Several camouflage colours plus black.
