Title: Solar USB Power Bank Tests / Review
Post by: MJLorton on June 11, 2015, 02:17:00 PM

In this video I review 9 solar powered USB power banks and 7 "wildcards"; a hybrid solution using a normal USB power bank and an external portable / folding solar panel.

I want to use one of these solar USB Power Banks for cycle touring in remote areas, charging it on the go from my SON dynamo to store energy pedalled together with extra option to charge from solar panel when we're not cycling. Now it would be nice if I could charge my phone or GPS from the powerbank at the same time as charing it from the dynamo. I wonder if this is possible? For all models?
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Previously, I have no interest in these matters even less. But now I began to study it more.
