Sample Amazon Feedback

"A versatile solar battery charger.  I bought two of these recently. They do what they are supposed to do. I've used them to recharge Sanyo Eneloop batteries after I drained them in my Kodak digital camera. This battery charger works quite well. It uses sunlight to generate a current that charges pairs of batteries in sizes AAA, AA, C, or D. It will also charge gum batteries...."

"This is truly an amazing device, fashioned of high-strength durable plastic, and photovoltaic cells that can charge several different sized batteries at once. The unit can recharge AA, AAA, C and D batteries, and does so extremely well....it does take a while to recharge the batteries. Although in strong sunlight in a south-facing window, units can recharge in five or six hours, it can in winter sunlight or on cloudy days take much longer than that. However, once the batteries are charged, they tend to hold the charge for a long while --- several months in some cases, depending on their use."

"It works. It may take a couple of days depending on your sunlight situation, but it does the job, it's cheap, and I'm happy with it."

"This solar powered charger is awesome! Only takes a couple hours to charge AA batteries! There is a very handy meter that shows the progress of the charging. I was a little "stand-offish" because the design looked kind of dated, but I decided to take a chance because the price was so reasonable. I AM HAPPY I DID! This a must for preppers!!!"

"I bought 4 of these chargers a few years back and have been using them ever since. I made a small solar array by placing them into a wooden frame that can be raised up by using an attached rod on the back of the frame, this keeps the angle just right. These chargers work very well and will still be working when we are without power. Can your powered charger do that? To those who left a bad review because you can only charge two batteries at a time - buy two chargers. These are a bargain. I highly recommend this product!"

"Off grid must have.  This works good. I live in Arizona with a lot of good sun most of the year. It takes about 2 1/2 days to fully charge 2 batteries of any kind. Not water proof. Love it. I used it every day for 2 years off grid. Good for flash light, LED lamp, and even 12" DVD/TV battery. It is what it said and nothing more."

"A Must Have.  This solar battery charger really works. You have to move it a few times too get the max. Charge. Everyone should own one for emergencies."

"It only charges a few batteries at once. E.g. 2 AAA or 2 AA. But it works and takes a little weather/rain; although not weatherproof."

"Love it and it works well. Perfect for what I needed."

"Prepper Staple, MUST HAVE.  The sun is FREE."

"Very nice and works great. Really important item to have for just in case."

Other Models

  • EBL 906 Smart Charger for AA AAA C D 9V Rechargeable Batteries (This is an additional non-solar battery charger that is very good. With the EBL Smart Battery Charger, batteries seem to hold a charge much longer. The reason is that each battery is discharged when you first put it in the charger, and then the charger reverts automatically to charging and the batteries charge fairly quickly. Discharging a battery at the beginning of the charge actually conditions the batteries).


Other Recommended Solar Panel Options

  • d.light LED Solar Rechargeable #S2 Task Light (This is a great prep.  We have almost a dozen of these inexpensive, super reliable, surprisingly bright, compact solar rechargeable lights that weigh almost nothing and will easily fit in your Bug-Out Bag and are great for camping, during a power outage, or for everyday use as a powerful flashlight).
