Joos Orange Portable Solar Charger Review
Those of us that take the electrical grid for granted, should realize how important it is to have power at our disposal, no matter how small.
In my continual quest to become more self sufficient, one area I’ve focused on is solar.
The advertisements and reviews I’ve seen about the Joos Orange Portable Solar Charger, seem like a refreshing relief for people like me that have been severely frustrated by the many solar chargers on the market.
The last few years of research have left me feeling completely overwhelmed and under motivated.
The reason? It was nearly impossible to find a charger that stood up against the hype and hysteria by the people promoting them.
Most of the solar chargers I’ve tried didn’t have the capacity to blow a bug’s nose. And if they did, they weighed nearly as much as a cast iron stove.
My quest:
I wanted a solar charger that was not only portable, but capable of charging my cell phones, portable power banks, and maybe a rechargeable headlamp. That’s really not too much to ask is it?
So, I decided to test the Joos Orange Portable Solar Charger.
Cost $149.95
Included in the Joos Orange Box:
Joos Orange Solar Charger
Weighing just about 1.5 lbs, and pumping out 5v/2w of power through it’s micro USB port, the Joos is reported to be 3x faster than any other solar charger in its price range.
So, how well did this equipment hold up to our test?
