PWR Solar 10W allows you to explore the great outdoors with an endless supply of clean renewable energy. You can charge all USB-A connected devices directly or charge an external power bank to store energy for later use (PWR Solar does not have an internal battery).
With its compact, lightweight, and sturdy design the PWR Solar 10W is the perfect choice for rugged outdoor exploration, whether it be on bike or foot.
FEATURES
- Charge devices & power banks directly via USB-A output
- Sunpower Maxeon GEN 5 solar panels (feature monocrystaline cells)
- Outputs a regulated 5V
- Lightweight at just 450 grams
- Extremely compact & durable
- Handy D-Ring attachment point
- Water resistant when USB cover sealed (IP65)
- EFTE coating for unparalleled protection against the elements
- Snap magnet closure
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.
