Title: Portable Solar Chargers
Post by: TechJunkie on August 30, 2014, 10:58:42 AM

Hello Martin,

  You have a bit more experience with solar power than I do so I thought I would throw this out there. I initially bought this Anker portable charger and it works very well.

But, I came across this one,

which appears to be much more robust. There is quite a significant cost difference but all the research I have done points me in this direction.

What are your thoughts?

Both products are very nice. At a first glance the Anker delivers 5 Volts and the Nomad 12 Volts so that tells me that it's up to the user's requirements which one is more suitable.
