Impossible to charge in the sun!

I love the strap that allows me to conveniently attach to my shoulder strap. However, I think after a year, the plastic de colours and bubbles up from UV, reducing the transparency of the plastic and it does not charge up.

Slow charging(?) but great lantern

Really enjoy having the Hero along on backpacking trips. I can usually squeeze an overnight's worth of battery out of my phone but I sleep easier knowing I have a backup without adding weight. Only downside is solar recharging seems really slow, but that could just be its bigger battery.

This lantern is great (long term review)

This lantern has become one of my most used travel companions. I've taken this on several camping trips and even over seas as a backup battery bank. It is light and folds relatively flat (micro USB charge port stick out). This thing generates a very usable amount of light and the lantern itself diffuses it enough so it's not too harsh on the eyes. The solar panel charges the battery pretty slowly but I expected that with a solar panel this small and knowing the efficiency of most solar panels to be relatively low. I used the built in battery more as a backup to my 10,000mah battery just case it isn't enough. The only notable wear after 2 years is the yellowing of the plastic the lantern is made of, not pretty but definitely not a deal breaker. I haven't seen too many lanterns that can match all the features this has so I definitely recommend this product!

Works as a light, works as a battery - so far the charge time is extremely slow...

it works great as a light, and great as a battery - it charged my watch (Garmin Forerunner 945) and phone (Pixel 2XL) just fine. I completely discharged it to test it out when backpacking. The hike-out, about 3 hours didn't seem to charge it even to 1 bar. Since then I've left it out in the sun outside for 2+ days in bright CO Sunshine... and it's up to 1 bar. This is making me question the actual value of carrying a heavy "solar" light with battery that may not even really charge via Solar. I have the 4000mAh version. I am curious if I can get a quantification of how much power a full day in sun is able to recharge so I know if it can keep up with basic things like charging my watch for a multiday trip. I am going to do more testing on this, but for now I am putting this as a "No" to recommend until I see if I can actually get the battery to charge via Solar to any extent.
