I took the Praana solar charger on a backpacking trip, and it performed really well. The solar panel charges at a decent speed, and I left it hooked up to my pack during the day. By the time I set up camp, it had enough power to charge my phone and light my tent from sunset to sunrise.The built-in LED light is surprisingly bright. On high, it easily lit up my whole tent area, and on low, it lasted through the night without draining the battery too much. I liked that I didn’t have to bring a separate lantern. The size and weight are great for backpacking—light enough that I didn’t even notice it clipped to my pack. It feels well made, and the IP68 rating is reassuring. It got some dust and moisture exposure on the trail but had no issues.Overall, it’s a solid piece of gear if you want a lightweight, reliable power source for off-grid trips. The solar charging works well, and the design makes it easy to carry and use.

As a mom, having a reliable backup during power outages is a must, and this solar power bank works like a charm! It provides exactly what we needed in an emergency —bright light and a way to charge our phones. No more scrambling for candles or worrying about out of charge mobile when we need to stay connected. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and gives peace of mind knowing we’re prepared. Highly recommend for any household!

This little device is great! As an avid camper and backpacker in Montana, having a power bank, light, and charger is essential. I used to carry all three separately, but this compact device makes it a lot easier. I haven’t gotten to fully put it to the test yet, but so far, it’s been really reliable. It’s pretty lightweight, and the light is incredibly bright! I love that it has three light settings. It charges my phone fast.I'm all about eco-friendly products, and this one really ticks that box for me with the portable solar panel. Plus, it's super affordable for everything you get. No complaints here!

This is a great rechargeable light. The solar portion isn't good. The light is VERY bright and the unit is small and thin, making it easy to use under cars or in tight spaces. I haven't tried to use it as a power bank, so I can't provide input on that feature. But for a light, this thing is amazing!

I bought this to replace my old Coleman lantern used for camping. This is a modern replacement for it and also includes mobile charging feature to boot. After using Praana for a while, I realized that it's also an eco-friendly replacement for the flashlight, which should be outdated because of their polluting batteries and their heavy weight. Praana has a wide beam light that is brighter. It is so light to carry in your backpack weighing around 200 gms. It also replaced my spare battery pack used for on the go mobile charging. Brighter, Greener and Smarter. All in all this has replaced at least 3 of my existing gadgets and the solar charging is icing on the cake!! Worth every penny, love it!!

I took this light and power bank on an overnight camping trip, and it was a lifesaver! The solar charging worked flawlessly, even on partially cloudy days. The adjustable brightness on the LED light is amazing, and the high setting lit up our entire campsite. The 5000mAh battery held up, powering both my phone and GoPro throughout the trip. It's rugged, lightweight, and extremely portable. This is a must-have for anyone who loves camping or preparing for emergencies!. I plan to send one to my parents too.

The battery life and charging speed of the product are great. The light itself is super powerful.The solar charging aspect could use some work from both the functionality end and the instruction end. I definitely haven't found a situation where I get the full 7watts from it. The solar panel doesn't charge a phone directly from the panel at all and the way the light/battery is set up it could use more on-product instructions so I don't have to carry instructions around.The durability is also a bit off on the battery/light as I now have a cracked edge and I'm not sure how any of it would have fallen from a height that would have caused a crack.
