RAV Power 16W Solar Phone Charger Review

Out of the four mid-range panels we tested, the RAVPower 16W is on the lower end of the scale when it comes to overall performance. It was relatively slow to charge our battery packs and iPhones during testing and struggled to charge two devices at once due to the loss of efficiency with the small size of the panel. It is lightweight and easy to use, making it a good option for those who don't want to invest too much into their purchase. For a decent panel that is inexpensive or for someone who probably won't be relying entirely on solar for power, the RAVPower is a good option. The RAVPower is a decent panel for the price. For an inexpensive, fairly reliable panel, this one does the job. However, it failed to perform at the level of our top-ranking panels in our performance comparisons.

PROS

Lightweight,
durable,
reasonably priced

CONS

Failed to charge multiple devices at once,
lacks efficiency

High Energy Conversion: Ravpower highly efficient solar cells convert up to 21. 5-23. 5% of solar power into free energy. Charge up to two USB devices simultaneously and forget what it feels like to have to look for a socket.
Important Note: Please DO NOT lay the solar panel directly on CONCRETE, SAND, ROCK or other high heat conduction surfaces in direct sunlight – this will cause the solar panel to overheat and significantly reduce the conversion rate and output wattage
Smart IC: Smart IC frequency technology detects all connected devices' input and distributes current output accordingly for up to 3. 2A
Charge Smarter: iSmart technology automatically adjusts to connected devices and provides the optimal charging current to minimize charging time
Compact Size: One of the most compact solar chargers on the market. Benefit from free solar energy in a lightweight foldable format you can always carry with you no matter where you go
