Buy Brunton Freedom Solar Panel and 2200 mAh Battery

I purchased this device to try to charge my cell phone with the sun. The device was very well constructed, and easy to use. When the device is fully charged (with a USB cable and wall charger which wasn't included), it was easy to charge my iPhone (3G) by plugging the iPhone cable into the included USB slot.

Unfortunately, even after leaving this device out in the full sun for an entire day, it failed to even charge the internal battery over 25%. What this means is that if you plan to use this for solar power, you have to leave it in the sun for the better part of a full week in order to get enough power to recharge a cell phone.

That said, it works well as a portable battery. Just not as a solar panel.

My first backup pack was an Energizer, $70, and it was fine but pricey for me. I happened to run across this Brunton pack through Botach Tactical for $30 shipped, and I LOVE it!

Solar Panel: I understand that the solar panel is for EMERGENCY or minor supplemental charging, so I am realistic about it's capabilities. With that being said, I haven't tested it's spec'd capabilities.

LED Light: The description leaves out the fact that it has a built in LED for reading or rummaging through your bag it's not very bright, it's just right.

Adapters: The cord that is half-wrapped around the unit is USB 2.0 and Mini 8-pin USB, both male type. Additionally, it comes with a cigarette lighter adapter with a female USB 2.0 port, as well as a Mini 8-pin USB (female) to Micro 5-pin USB (male) adapter that allows you to plug in most Smart phones. At first having to use the adapter to plug my phone in was a gripe for me, BUT, I realized that a Mini USB is able to withstand more abuse than a Micro, so it works out. NOTE: When using your own charging cable (Micro to USB 2.0) be sure to completely unplug the attached grey cable from the unit. If you leave the Mini side plugged in, it will assume you are attempting to charge the pack, not your phone.

Charge Capacity: We own 2 of these units, 1 for me and one for the diaper bag. We charge them when they hit 50%, but have yet to fully deplete them even with heavy use. My Android was about to die while I was tweaking out on my Ebay app, so I plugged it in and it kept my phone juiced up AND even added charge.

Build: This unit feels pretty durable, and has handled the diaper bag abuse. The orange rubber lining is no-slip texture, and the unit is slim enough to fit in the back pocket of my Levi's comfortably.

All in all, I couldn't be happier, especially given the price. Even for the Amazon price, it's still worth the money for everyday use and just-in-case. Couple all the above mentioned with the "Plethora" of aftermarket attachments and chachkies (maybe a Brunton SolarRoll) and you got yourself mobile peace of mind.

I was very happy with this recent purchase. It charges rather quickly when you plug it into an outlet, about 2 hours and it was fully charged. It comes with a small USB to mini USB cable to charge it with. It charged my cell phone from about 1/3 power to fully charged in less than an hour and charged my Nexus 7 tablet from 53% to 85% in under an hour, I disconnected it and still had 3 or 4 lights for battery power. I haven't tried it yet with just solar power but for my needs it will be fine. I intend to keep it fully charged for trips (hiking and camping) and clip it to my backpack as an emergency power source. It seems pretty rugged.

Honest reviews on Brunton Freedom Solar Panel and 2200 mAh Battery

I bought this device for an upcoming sailing trip, and then read the reviews. I was very concerned that it would not work based on what I read, but it has been fine for me. It powered up on a sunny day, and is recharging my device perfectly. Let's see what happens over time, but I am not having any of the issues that other people had.

Getting my supplies ready for hiking the AT I found myself feeling very fortunate to find a product such as this.

I use a bottom line Motorola Cell and a Bayer Contour USB glucose meter for my diabetic care.

Both of my devices charge in just more than an hour using this device. I find that funtastic.

I know the solar panel does little for those with high-end phone/toys. The small solar panel is only a half watt and that is in the best sunlight/condition ( 0.100a * 5V = .500W or 1/2 watt)(a*v=W). My devices are turned off during hiking/packing until I have a need and there is where this device works for me. During my few months on the trail the Brunton Freedom will be more than adequate for my charging. I also love the small dim led light built in.

If your going to bring a high-end toy on the AT you may want to buy a gas generator to pull behind you.

As I stated, Funtastic!!!!

Peace be to the journey!!!

because of the low price I was afraid that this might not work. I was wrong. It works great. While I got it primarily to charge my iPod while driving across country, using the cigar adapter, I've also used the A/C adapter for a regular charge when I traveled without a computer. I highly suggest that you get one of these, great for when you're away from your computer.

I was preparing to buy one of these transmitters for my car so I can play my Itouch. I was ready to dish out $60.00 for it. I saw this one for $5.00. I thought, why not try it? All I have to lose is $5.00. Well it was simple to use and it works perfectly. I still can't believe it. The sound quality is great. It REALLY works.

This is my third FM transmitter (gave one to gf, other to totalled car). I absolutely hate this product. If the source is too loud, there is tons of static, too quite and it automatically turns off thinking nothing is playing. If the intro to a song is quite it turns off. Turns off constantly while I am playing music through it. Currently on a road trip and it won't work at all after 4 hours. Probably won't buy another because I'm cheap, but I immediately regretted this decision.

I purchased my iWorld FM Transmitter from Five Below for $5. I drive a Honda Civic that doesn't have an Auxillary port and I wanted to be able to play my iPhone and my iPod in my car. For $5, this product went above and beyond my expectations. It's easy to use, comes in several different colors, and it works! I was hesitiant to spend more money on a name brand product (like Monster). I don't need to now...I found a similar product for a better price!!

I purchased two of these from five and below, they work very well for the price. I also have the more expensive monster FM transmitter and I find the range to be slightly better with this unit. My only design complaint is that the battery door does not keep the batteries firmly in place and may cause the transmitter to lose power if it is in motion... simple fix though: some foam or folded piece of paper applied to the battery door and the batteries will stay in place.

As is the case with most cell phones, my battery loses it's ability to hold a charge so having this in my car is nice and the fact that it's so compact means less clutter. The only drawback is it seems to heat up when I use it which may actually be an issue with my car, not the charger.

Customer Ratings: 3 stars

I have Aux input in my car, and my aux output on my iphone was getting a bit unpredictable as I was putting it on and off on my old iPhone 3GS, the phone got damaged because of overuse. So I was searching for a replacement and found this. I also needed to charge my phone, as I spend many hours on the road, taking calls.

This product received very quickly, and in good quality. I put it in my car, and I noticed a peculiar behavior with the charging when the ignition is turned partially, so only the battery is on (but the engine is not), the phone charges. As soon as the engine turned ON, it would not charge. Sometimes I have to connect it after the engine is on. I tried to find a pattern but failed as it charges sometimes, and doesn't sometimes. Luckily I picked up a cigarette lighter USB device from a conference, and I used it and it charges ALL the time now. So looks like the cigarette lighter device is not of good quality.

I had no problems with sound sound always worked great. The sound quality is very good no complaints at all.

In the past, with the aux comign from the top of the phone, and charger at the bottom, I could not put my phone in the cup-holder :( But with this device, since the top of the phone is free, I can put my phone upside down in the cup holder while listening to music, at the same time, charging the device.

Overall I am happy, thanks to the extra cigarette lighter device I have.

This adapter does the job and looks quite nicely. I've been using it with iPhone 4S (for stereo connection via Aux Audio and for recharging) and with the New iPad (just for recharging) with no issue. Product was shipped from HK, but was amazingly faster to be delivered. Totally satisfied.

The Boulder 15 Solar Panel is most often sold with the Escape 150 battery pack (the Coffee Maker looking battery), such as in this "kit". The advertisement above says to expect to fully charge the Escape 150 battery from empty charge in about 15 hours using the panel. When I bought the two together I charged the battery to full and then ran it down to empty. The next morning at sun up (I live in the California desert mountains . . so I'm high above the haze layer and have 100% crystal blue sky and sun) so I faced the panel directly at the sun for 11 hours solid. At the end of that time I was knocking on the door of 80% power (75%??) according to the battery charge indicator, and took the next day for another 3 hours (total of 14ish hours) to get the Escape 150 fully charged. Recommendation: if you're going to run the Escape 150 down to empty during the day/night (for laptops, etc.) then you'll need two (2) Boulder 15 solar panels (daisy-chained) to fully recharge the battery the next day. NOTE: Also, I did run the battery to empty off 3 of their LED lights (which are outstanding at 207 illumens 3-watt, "Light-a-life" as they're called). Manufacturer states to expect getting 16 hours of light (with 3 lights daisy chained). I got 17 hours 10 minutes with the Escape 150 battery.

This items works as advertised. I was able to trickle charge my car battery using the optional Goal Zero 4.7 mm to female cigarette adaptor. The items looks and feels well built. I also was able to charge a 12V 8Ah AGM battery used for my small electronic devices. I look forward taking this solar panel during camping trips.

Best Deals for Goal Zero 32101 Boulder 15M Solar Panel

The solar panel arrived well packaged and with no discernible damage. The reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because the actual time to charge the goal zero 350 takes about 15 20% longer than advertised, and one needs to keep moving the panel every few hours to follow the sun to get the best results. This purchase was actually my second panel so I could chain it to another Boulder 15 panel to get faster charging. If you are trying to decide between the Boulder 15 and the Boulder 30 to use with the Goal Zero 350, the Boulder 30 is probably the better deal.

Honest reviews on Goal Zero 32101 Boulder 15M Solar Panel

Absolutely love Goal0 and recommend it to my friends that hike, bike, ride, and boat.

Brought this out while primitive camping out in Joshua Tree National Park for 8 days. We had 2 DSLR cameras, 2 iPhones, 1 ipad, 1 laptop, 1 GoPro camera and never ran out of power. We used these to charge our Nomad 150 battery pack during the day while we were out climbing and would charge all of our electronics at night and would still have 20% charge left over.

Obviously when hiking in several miles to set up a base-camp every ounce counts. The panels and battery pack fit perfectly and easily into my pack with my clothing and honestly, I forgot I was even carrying it.

I don't mean to sound dramatic but having portable power has become life changing. I planned on only spending 4 days of my vacation in the woods doing video and night photography and with the constant power available I was able to constantly dump and edit photos and charge batteries and edit time-lapse videos with out worry.

I highly recommend this for anyone that enjoys time away from the grid, but still enjoys the convenience of electronics.

I also bought the Nomad 7 and charge that right on my backpack, or on my car dashboard depending where and what I'm doing.

Works great as a dock and charger, however it doesn't actually support the 755t. It charges it, and keeps it turned on and works great for that.

Not a big deal i suppose, but it was always nice to have. So, i would suggest taking away the 755t support or put a note that it doesnt support full functionality and is not a true replacement.

First, my review:

Great concept, solid looking Android app, and long battery life. There were two issues that caused me to return the item

1) VERY cheap housing material/build quality! The keyring is just waiting to break..and the whole thing has a dollar store tactile feel to it.

2) KILLS your phone's battery! (Tried on stock MT4G and N1 w/CM6.1) If you want the GPS logging, it literally relies on your phone's GPS being on 24/7..otherwise, it'll just give you the tower-triangulation location, which has an accuracy of +/1,000+ feet. The device doesn't have it's own GPS integrated, despite what it semi-implies.

For my purposes, I just bought a cheap bluetooth headset and downloaded the Car Locator app, which will save your location whenever a bluetooth device unpairs with it.

That being said, the bigger issue I have with this item is the obvious clutter of shill reviews!

Notice how most of the 5 star reviews appear to sound like commercials...acting as though this changed someone's life on the same scale as having a third thumb? Well, feel free to click the reviewers posting histories, and you'll notice that nearly all of them have reviewed only this one item..ever. Also, many of these suspect reviews are bunched around February 4th of 2010. Keep in mind that this is the same company that gave themselves a 5 star review on the Android Market with the comment simply being their email address.

To further reinforce the dubious nature of some of the reviews, hop on over to PhoneHalo's website and click "about." You'll quickly notice that their CTO/Co-Founder suspiciously shares a last name with 2 of the 5-star reviewers. Sure..it's possible that people have common last names but what a coincidence that, within one click of the Phone Halo Facebook page, the fact that Ann is the CTO's mom and Carrie is his wife stares you in the face. Also, on "about" page, you'll notice that Glass Lighthouse media put together their marketing video. What a coincidence that one of the reviews again, from someone that isn't an Amazon verified purchaser is from none other than Glasslighthouse. Furthermore, another glowing review, left just a few days later, is from someone by the name of "Jeremy Canterbury". Want to take a wild guess at the name of Glasslighthouse's CFO?

There are certainly some high reviews that sound legitimate, but without the fake ones pulling up the average, the item would probably have a 2 at best.

Disclaimer/clarification: I am, in no way, shape, or form, involved with any consumer electronics companies, and have no vested interest in the success/failure of this product. I am simply a buyer who had to put up with their runaround to return the item (bought it direct through them since it was cheaper), and I feel fleeced, since I depended on those reviews when selecting the Phone Halo.

This is a cool product idea, but it had too many bugs. It would lock my phone whenever it felt like it. Even turning every thing off (all alarms, notifications, etc.) And turning the app itself off wouldn't stop it. My keys would be sitting on top of my phone and the alarm would go off.

Best Deals for Phone Halo Protect Tracker - Black

I occasionaly leave either my Blackberry Tour or Keys behind. I reviewed both Zomm & Phone Halo. I ruled Zomm out because it's built-in bluetooth speaker doesn't play nice with other bluetooth headsets or the bluetooth speakerphone in my car. The Phone-Halo paired fine with my Blackberry Tour and will make it ring when they move too far apart (beyond bluetooth range). But I have one major concern which may cause me to return it.

1. The beeper volume on the Phone-Halo is so low you can barely hear it. Not good if you're looking for the keyring its attached to, especially if buried in the couch or in a jacket where you wouldn't hear it at all. Because the volume is soo low I don't know if it goes off at night when my Blackberry automatically turn off to conserve power for 8 hours while I'm sleeping. I immediately emailed Phone-Halo support the day after I receive the unit about this problem. After 2 business days and no reply I sent a 2nd request and finally heard back from their support. Their reply confirmed this is a known problem and they're working on a fix. My question back to them was a) how soon and b) will it be a free upgrade or replacment unit. After a week I've yet to hear back. Deduct 1 star until its fixed for free.

2. The button on the Phone-Halo when pushed for 3 seconds (per their website) is suppose to make my cell phone ring to help locate it. Problem is it doesn't make my cell phone ring. I included this in my email to support and found that instead of one 3 second push it shoud be 3 quick pushes (which does make the phone ring). I pointed out the error in their website manual but its still lists the 3 second push.

3. The on-off switch on the unit can accidently be turned off (especially attached to the keys in my pocket) causing my phone to go off. A more secure design would be nice to prevent accidently turn off. In addition, once the unit & phone are in range again it takes almost a minute for them to pair up again. Deduct 1 star again.

4. Their is no indication on the Phone Halo to tell if the unit is paired or what its battery status is. I guess they figure that when you phone starts ringing you'll figure it out but by then it might be too late to charge the halo unit until you get home. There is a tiny indicator on the phone next to the Bluetooth logo indicating the phone and the halo are paired.

5. The distance indicator, when connected, shows either VERY CLOSE or FAR nothing in between. Since this is typically a 30'diameter I got a lot of places to search.

Hopefully I'll hear back in a couple more days from their support with info on the beeper volume fix. Otherwise I'm happy with the device. All it will take is one found lost/forgotten set of keys or phone and I'll be very happy!

Honest reviews on Phone Halo Protect Tracker - Black

I tried this little device on a a business trip. It malfunctioned when I used the gps feature on my phone. It also lost connection during a seminar and started beeping. (Quite embarrassing). I still have the device and may try it later. But for now my HTC Thunderbolt with Verizon service and the Halo aren't speaking.

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Phone Halo Protect Tracker - Black

You should have a minimum technical knowledge to use this. I mean, You should be able to tell when a Bluetooth device is paired or not. Since, if the pairing drops for any reason, you will not be able to ring your device if lost. Otherwise, when paired, this item is a lifesaver. We used it on an android phone with its free market app. My mom who always misplaced her phone used this item for a week and found her phone successfully several times. However, I would have to check her phone and make sure it was paired at random intervals, and remind her to charge the Halo. We only had to charge it once in the week that we used it so the battery seems to last very long, but I can no longer be her tech support so she told me to sell it.
