Sports reviews of Brunton 26 Watt Foldable Solar Array
Customer Review: better than expected
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I got this to charge my Duracell 600 and to use to charge D batteries, run fans, play music etc. It has exceeded my expectations. The first time I used it the day was overcast in my treed yard, but it still put out plenty of power for mp3 player and external speakers. It also charged a phone at the same time. It puts out 12-18v even on a partly cloudy day in Va. It has sufficient amps to run a netbook in realtime.
My only complaint is with the cords, or lack of cords. I purchased a variety of 12v adapters and cigarette lighter plug adapters. You will probably like a cigarette lighter extension cord. If you are at a table in the shade, the provided cord isn't long enough to run to the array in a sunnier spot. It would have been nice to have the omni adapter cord much longer and to provide another shorter cord solely for joining two panels [which I will be doing]. I will make a patch cord for joining.
If you purchase the Duracell 600, the ac charging inlet will allow you to use this array for charging and I guess even trickle charging without getting any kind of regulator, as the Duracell uses the onboard ac regulator, which also trickle charges. This was a huge benny for me. Just plug and go. This fact is documented in the manual as well as the correct jack to use on your solar panel. Nice touch for the Duracell.
This is well made and really sci fi cool looking. What I didn't immediately realize is that these panels actually use mono crystal cells. It doesn't look like it, though. I expect that it will last a good while.

The unit's multi-section design folds up into a compact footprint that's just a bit larger than a DVD case, while still delivering an impressive 26 watts of power, more than enough to charge a laptop or digital video camera or power a satellite or cell phone. In addition, the unit's high-performance CIGS solar cells--the most efficient thin-film solar technology available--are extremely reliable, with a design that instinctively converts incident sunlight into an electrical current, even in low-light conditions. The combined functions make this an ideal panel for camping trips, hikes, power outages, and other occasions when it helps to have a portable power source on hand.
