What customers say
Customers generally appreciate the BioLite Solar Panel 10+ for its impressive portability and integrated battery, making it incredibly convenient for outdoor adventures. Many find it remarkably easy to set up and use, quickly charging smaller devices.

The built in battery is a consistent highlight, offering power even after sunset. Its compact design and robust build quality are frequently praised.
Know before you buy
Charging time via solar depends heavily on direct sunlight intensity and angle. While the 10W panel is efficient for its size, you should expect solar charging to be a supplemental method rather than a primary way to reach a full charge quickly.
No, this charger is designed to power one device at a time through its single USB-A output port. You will need to prioritize charging your device or replenishing the internal 3200 mAh battery separately.
While the panel is designed for solar collection, the internal battery can reach high temperatures if left in direct, intense sunlight for too long. It is best practice to keep the battery unit shaded while the panels are angled toward the sun.
The USB-A port is compatible with most small electronics, including smartphones, GPS units, and headlamps. Since the unit includes a USB-A to USB-C cable, it is ready to charge modern USB-C devices right out of the box.
The charger features integrated LED indicators that display the current battery status. These lights provide a quick visual reference so you know when it is time to recharge the unit via the micro-USB input.
At 550 grams and roughly one inch thick, the charger is designed to be compact and foldable. It fits easily into the outer pocket of most hiking packs, making it a practical choice for those who need to save space while on the trail.
