JOOS Orange

Great, rugged, waterproof, little solar charger. Works in low light and stores charge from the day so you can even use it at night. Comes with USB and several other adapters. Charges quickly and can charge an iPad.

After doing TONS of research on portable solar chargers for both commercial and personal use I decided to go with the JOOS.

I usually spend 1-2 weeks at a time in remote areas of all different climates. The idea of having a flexible charger like the Global or Sunling brands appealed to me but I had some friends and a couple guides complain about effectiveness and wish that they had internal power storage.

It charges its internal battery pretty quickly and the charge rate is high enough to charge a cell phone while you are on it. I got the thing COVERED in mud down a very rainy/cloudy San Juan River trip and even though it blinked red (wanted more sun), it charged fully through the overcast sky and mud covered panel. I hiked with it strapped to my pack around Mammoth, Calif., and it did not get scratched up by the 60-70 mph wind gusts of sand and debris.

You can charge it at home through an adapter which I do before I travel now since I always end up stuck in an airport with no open charging stations. It took my personal and work cell from dead to full and then charged my video iPod and Zune with no worries. It even charged in the plane.

It is waterproof so you can strap it to your kayak. It is designed with a security loop so if you wanted to bike-chain it to something so it could charge at the camp site while you are gone you can.

8.5 x 5.75 x .75 inches, 24 ounces.

Note: if it blinks red at you it is still charging! It is just sad that it is not getting direct face time with the sun. 

This thing is amazing, waterproof, and muddy sand stuck up the connector slot proof =).

Solar charger for iPhone, digital cameras, camcorders, iPad, Kindles and more! Lightweight, compact, durable, and effective.

Amazingly capable, light, and effective. Charging is unbelievably quick, and the versatility in compatible equipment makes this product a no brainer.
