Dual Function LEDs

Features +-

Compact & Lightweight

The smart concertina design of the PWR Solar 10W means that when not in use it folds into a small compact unit that is not much larger than a smartphone. Weighing in at 450g this small compact unit can fit easily into pannier bags or secure jacket pockets. With smartly placed magnets this solar unit packs up easily when not in use, these same magnets can also be used to add positioning of the panels on a metal object.

Durable & Rugged

Every aspect of PWR Solar 10W has been designed with adventure in mind. As such, the entire unit is coated with ETFE which is considered the leading industrial coating offering unparalleled protection from heat, water, salt, oil, and dirt. The charger also has a handy D-ring attachment which allows for convenient and secure storage or premium placement for maximum sun absorption.

Dual function LEDs

4 conveniently located LEDs on the top of the unit perform dual display functions. When the LEDs display on steady they are measuring the quality of the available sunlight which allows for placement to ensure optimum sunlight capture. When the LED’s are flashing they are indicating the rate at which your device is charging, with the unit only delivering the level of charge that a device requires.

Premium Solar Cells & Intelligent Chip Technology

Not all solar cells give an equal performance, with a huge difference in various cells efficiencies. Knog's decision to use Sunpower Maxeon Gen 5 panels featuring Monocrystalline cells allows for high module efficiency, these are the same cells that are used by Nasa. Through Knog’s use of advanced integrated chip technology, the PWR Solar 10W panels can detect improving solar conditions and automatically re-start the charging process to allow the device that is being charged to draw the optimum charging current, creating the most efficient charging in any given conditions.

Bikepacking Adventure Tested

I tested the PWR Solar Panel 10W on an 800km coast-to-coast traverse of the Pyrenees (days were mostly sunny). Thanks to Knog's solar panel, I was able to keep my devices (phone, bike GPS, watch, GoPro) continuously powered. A really superb tool for self-supported outdoor adventures.

Amazing and a MUST for your Outdoor Activities

I have use it very few still, but I was surprised about the quality of materials, que size, and how it works.
I have charges several devices, but I have to check really the Speed for loading X mAh, because all days used, the sun was not completely shinning continuosly, but I am quite satisfyed with what I get.
Totally advisable, for quality, size, weight, materials, and easy of getting power from de sun.
Thanks for adding this item to the product family.

Works very well

I was able to top up my phone charge from 57% to 85% in roughly a half hour of exposure to direct sunlight.
On the downside, I was disappointed to find several cracks in the cover behind the front panel. The packaging was undamaged so the cracks were there before the product was dispatched. Quality control could be better.

Work as expected

I'm pretty happy with the product, even I haven't tested yet as its max. I've tested at home and, for example, fully exposed, it chaged my old Iphone SE (1st gen) from completely drain to 40%+ in something more than an hour. So, It can really help charging a way vriety of devices out there in the wild and helps a lot.

Impressive 10W solar for backpacking, thru-hiking

This solar panel is the best I could find for backpacking after considering the various criteria that go into my gear choices: weight, durability, functionality, and compactness. The materials and build are very solid, it charges efficiently, and it's very compact. The weight is a bit higher than I would like for long-distance hikes, but then again this product was probably optimized for biking. The rubber material is likely the issue, though going with a lighter material could compromise the durability. I would also like to see the USB-A port replaced with USB-C as most of my gadgets use that standard now. I bring along a Lever Gear cable kit, which includes any adapters I need, as a nice lightweight complement to the PWR Solar Panel. My primary mode of use is to charge an Anker Powercore 5000, which I then use to charge my other electronics. To summarize, I think the PWR is a best-in-class product for a portable and robust solar charger, and I would highly recommend it to any hiker, cyclist, or anyone else recreating in the outdoors.

No Matter where You go You’re “In Charge”

The PWR Solar Panel is the compliment I needed for my PWR System Accessories and Batteries. The backcountry places I like to go have plenty of Sun and this is the perfect way to use that resource. Even in the far part of the middle of nowhere you can keep your flashlight, lantern, GPS and Phone charged and usable with the Solar Panel. Compact enough to always have with you it is well designed and built, as you would expect from Knog.

Perfect Size

I received the solar panel and I am extremely happy with the size as it will be used during my bike ride on the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route this summer and space is limited. I bought this after reading the great review of the product via the Adventure Cycling Association. I am positive it will give me the power needed for my devices during this epic adventure. Thanks!

High quality- high cost

Very good quality definitely expensive but it gives you back with its performance....The only problem I faced is that I paid customs tax about 60 euros....I didn't expect that....I have ordered other times from countries outside of Europe and for the first time I paid tax for purchases of this value...otherwise it's light ,small and charges fast ideal for cycling trip....

Just right for adventure

As long as you have cell service, this charger is the just the ticket for heading to the beach, the mountains or really anywhere there's sunshine. Disconnect from the web because you want to, not because your phone runs out of battery!
