    Excellent backup power solar panel.

    4 months ago
    The panel came in a great box that protects it when not in use. Have set it up in a south window and it is powered up and ready to go.

    replacement

    4 months ago
    I purchased my original several years ago and it's been working beautifully. I moved cross country and lost it. this was a replacement. I use it to keep my & my kids' cell phones charged when we are camping. The original made it through several summers of heat & pop-up thundershowers. looking forward to m=seeing it this replacement does the same.

    Micro USB...really!?

    Overall it's good and well built but Micro USB input is a deal breaker.

    Thanks for sharing your feedback—we completely understand how micro-USB can be a deal breaker. Some of our earlier products were designed with micro-USB when it was the most widely used option and helped maintain compatibility across the BioLite ecosystem. That said, we’ve been transitioning our newer products to USB-C (including the SolarPanel 100, lanterns, and headlamps), and that’s the direction we’re continuing to move in. We’re glad to hear you found the product well-built overall.

    Overheats too much

    10 months ago
    I 'purchased' a SolarPanel 5+ through a points-based rewards program at my place of employment. I am not the original purchaser, I have no receipt and no recourse for exchange or refund. Am dissatisfied with the product: overheats before charging the internal battery past 1 LED. Wish I had spent my points on anything else or saved them for future.

    Thanks for the feedback. We're sorry your panel's overheat feature is disrupting charging. While designed to protect the battery, it shouldn't affect normal use. Please contact our support team here: https://www.bioliteenergy.com/pages/contact for assistance.

    So simple

    I’ve had mine about a year. I love the size and how easy it is to use. I’m also impressed with how long it holds a charge. Very happy I bought it.

    Needs direct sun. After a week in the south facing window it did not charge at all. In direct sunlight it did charge quickly. If hiking/camping in woods it might not provide the same speed of charge as in the open. If I lived in southwest I would give it a 5 star but in northeast it gets a 2 because where I would use it tends to be much woodier so I am now required to add full sunlight to my camping spots.

    Doesn't work!

    Do not waste your money on this solar charger. After sitting in bright direct sunlight then charging phone, the SolarPanel 5+ actually drained charge from my phone!

    Thanks for reaching out. This is definitely not how the Solar Panel should be performing. We'd like to learn more. Please reach out to us at support@bioliteenergy.com.

    Great for back woods and on the water/portages

    Works as advertised. Light weight and easy to use.
