Small folding Solar Panels for Handheld Radios

 

Small folding Solar Panels for Handheld Radios 

I Picked this up off Temu for $16.31 NZD. I have had it hanging in the window all day and have charged 3 of these Baofeng UHF radios. A great piece of kit to have in a grid-down situation. Granted, none of the batteries were completely flat but I thought reasonable performance anyway, especially for the price.  I shall run one of the Baofeng handhelds flat and time it to full charge next time.


No doubt it would be able to charge a power bank but I would imagine that it would take considerably longer.


May be an image of book and saddle-stitched leather


It  folds up to an almost wallet size of 120 x 185 x 20 mm, very convenient for throwing in a pack or carry-on luggage.



I shall keep on using it and report back at a later time as to how it performs in the long term. Does anyone else use something similar? Love to hear about it.
