Addtop

This Solar Powered USB Charger from Addtop is a Power Bank USB charger but with the added bonus of having 4 solar panels which fold up and fasten with a popper button. The panels are used for also charging up the power bank and are covered in a faux leather type of material with the seam and charger surround coloured in orange. On the reverse is an on button and a panel for a light. The bottom of the device can be found a small rubber flap which conceals the Micro USB Input charging port and two USB output ports used for charging devices.

So where might you use this? Anywhere really, in the car, in a rucksack or gym bag, outdoor camping, on holiday, woodland walk, at the beach, or at a picnic. Wherever there isn’t easy access to power mains you can just plug this in and let it charge away. The added bonus is that if you are outside you can open up the solar panels and let it be charging at the same time as using it. FREE POWER!!!!.

The types of devices you can charge include Ipads, iphones, Android phones, Cameras, Samsung, Gaming controllers, MP3 players, tooth brushes, Smartwatches.

With regards to negatives, it is quite a heavy device. There isn’t much which can be done about that though because batteries in general are naturally weighty. If you think of any battery they tend to be quite heavy and this is basically one big battery. The bigger capacity a device is, the heavier it will be so if you were looking for something more discreet you could purchase a lighter power bank but the trade-off is that you won’t be able to charge as much from it.

This Addtop power bank has a capacity of 25000mAH which is generous when compared to other power banks. For those unfamiliar with what this means, its how much power it can store and this is important for knowing how much you can charge with it. To help here are some examples of how large batteries are in some devices.

iPhone 6 – 1810

iPhone X – 2716

iPad Air – 8314

iPad Pro - 10307

Samsung s5 - 2800

Samsung S9 – 3000

Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 - 7300

Samsung s10 – 3400

A tip is to lose the last 3 digits and round up or down to the nearest whole number and see how many times it fits into 25 (rather than 25000). So the iphone X would round to 3 and can be charged around 8 times over (3 * 8 = 24) and then round the Ipad Air to 8 and can be charged around 3 times over (8 * 3 = 24).

So that gives you an idea on how much you can charge with this charger but of course you probably won’t be charging a single device from flat and you may want to charge 2 semi charged devices at once, and possibly may also be charging up the Power bank via its solar panels at the same time.
