Camping trip or bike touring, solar chargers will keep you connected; your battery energized and keep you safe by staying in touch.

When looking for solar chargers, size matters. Select the most energy draining electronics you own then match the solar battery charger. Portability Vs power is always a struggle, but power should always win. Why? Cost and weight may seem important when looking for solar chargers, but if you have to wait on an underpowered battery charger, well it can be frustrating.
If the solar charger you choose is producing more power than the mobile cell phone, RV 12 volt battery or laptop batteries, you should be good. However, we strongly recommend you select a battery booster to use with your solar charger as an interim buffer. You can match most solar chargers with a portable battery and charge the battery on your pack, RV or tent all day. The batteries we sell have automatic shut off to prevent overcharging. When you need the extra power for your mobile cell phone or laptop battery, you simply connect it to your spare and draw the power anytime.
Solar chargers for your RV 12v battery work great. Add a charge controller to prevent overcharging. It would be a bummer to come back from a day hike and find your RV 12 Volt battery a glob of melted plastic on the ground. Would a solar charger really do that? No, but solar chargers can kill a battery if you allow them to overcharge.
Solar chargers overcharging or undercharging a battery is one of the fastest ways to destroy batteries. Overheating your 12v battery can cause water loss in flooded batteries. A charge controller in the circuit of your solar charger will prevent that from happening. Charging rate from your solar chargers is based on the battery capacity, which you determine from the batteries "Ah" rating. A safe charging rate is accepted that is generally accepted is as about 20 percent of the Ah capacity of the RV 12 volt battery. This means that a 50 Ah battery would ideally be charged at about a 10 Adc rate.
