This is my renergie 100-watt folding suitcase solar panel. Ibought a few years back it's used to charge my auxiliary battery in the FJ. This is the gold zero case which is very non padded well. We got here there's a suit seems to be a solar panel inside the renergie case but that's their energy sitting there. Yet the goal zero 100 watt Boulder folding solar panels. Ijust bought a few days ago fits perfectly into the case. This case is padded a lot. More protection this floppy thing I'm going to see. Ican buy one of these cases for energy to keep the goal zero. One in then when it's in a rig. It will have a lot more protection. Ijust I'm not liking this floppy case here there's no protection in.

So guys our new Boulder solar panels got a little bigger a little stronger. And a little more powerful so the Boulder 50 is replacing the old Boulder 30s. And our Boulder hundreds are. Now replacing our old Boulder 90s, so we've got a nice eco system going here we've still got the tempered glass the aluminum frames. And now reinforced corners to be able to go out. And play wherever you happen to be out there so our new Boulder lineup. All comes with integrated kickstand. These will allow you to tilt your solar panel to point them at the Sun for more solar production it's pretty sweet just on a nice little hinge so. This kickstand folds in flush with the panel. And as you pull it out. You just lean the solar panel back point. It towards the Sun and. You start producing and charging your batteries the kickstand is built so it's integrated to a little less. Then a 45 degree angle since. Most solar panels and. Most outdoor play happens in the summer. We wanted to capture. More of that summer Sun. When it's more direct overhead. And less out on the horizon so.

We try to optimize this angle for your benefit, so we've made a decision to get away from the mc4 cables. And stick to the eight millimeter barrel jacks. This is going to be a safety precaution so. That we can only change our panels in parallel so. Everything stays at a nice safe 12 volts for the user with our eight millimeter chaining cable. We can chain up to four of. Any of our solar panels here. That have the eight millimeter barrel jack to plug in through the anderson power pole just grab the barrel jack from the solar panel as. You plug it in make sure. You push hard enough to hear. It snaps into place and that's going to give. You a nice strong sturdy connection to make sure. That you're always transmitting power to your battery as. You can see our panels come in slightly different form factors between the 50 100. And the 100 briefcase the briefcase has a sweet carrying handle so. It can go wherever. You go and it comes with a bag so.

You can stuff the panels in their keep them nice and safe from getting scratched. While you're out traveling the boulder 50. And the boulder 100. Both have the kickstand which is a sweet tilt option for portability but. That kickstand is also removable just in case. You do want to permanently mount. These solar panels to. Any roof and those are our brand-new Boulder solar panels with improved features. And capabilities for a wonderful user experience. And if you need any. More information or for purchasing just go to goal zero com.

If YouTube, so I filmed a video yesterday for the Boulder 100 pound panel from goal zero. And realized I used about four billion times through the video. It again I'm trying to stop doing. Ipromise so I'm trying to watch myself. More also the video ran much longer. Iexpected even after editing, so I'm just gonna refilm. It so right now I'm going to insert. Some photos the first two photos. That I'm an insert are going to be of the power. Iwas getting from the wall. And from the solar panel then I'll get back into. That after all right so as. You can see the first photo was from the wall outlet. It was averaging about 62 watts. Iwas actually averaging a better wattage from the goal zero folder 167 watts was about. Where 66 67 watts was worth settled so. That being said I'm curious about. Something so on goal zeros website. You can chain three Boulder 50s together. It limits how much wattage can come in so. Idon't know if the amperages are different for what's coming in. It doesn't show you input. It only shows outgoing so. Ican't test that part to see. If there's a difference as well. Ihad thought about buying a boulder 50 panels eventually anyways to chain. And then looking at the new Boulder 100's there's no chain input so double checking there's no chain input so with.

You have to chain them a different way there's an adapter. You need to buy for chaining multiple Boulder 100 together I'm not sure. If the 50s are the same way but. It looks like the boulder 100 is gonna be exactly. What I needed so it'll charge my yeti 400 fully everyday. And the sunlight I was getting yesterday. Isaid about six hours well five hours a little over five hours too full but. It wasn't completely dead. It started about 30% so with. That on to the next thing the Boulder 100 panels is a lot taller. Iwas expecting and I'm gonna insert those photos right here so. Iwill be right back. You sorry kind of got interrupted there. If you're only charging a phone goal zero just released the new Sherpa models.

They were very thin. You get a lot of wattage for what they are. They will run perfectly with a 20 watt panel. Ithink there's a 28 + panel. One of those would be great. If you're going with the bigger model. They do come with a bunch of connections on the biggest model. It comes with everything micro USB C. And lightning cable the smaller ones. You have to shop specifically for. Either Lightning or micro USB but it's still pretty cool. You can buy the cable separate. And their cables are actually really durable. Ido a video about just their cables. Iordered a few different ones the other day from them. And have been using them for about a week. And I'll tell you have a Apple device. You have it is an iPad. And iPhone order their cables their way the hell. More durable then apples cables aren't Apple of cables suck but the lightning cable from goal zero is freakin awesome it's a lot heavier duty it's meant to be a little bit.

More rugged and be outdoors so. Iwas very impressed with. Iordered three different ones from. That but I'll I'll do a video separate for just. That anyways I am going to be closing the video out here I'm just trying to think. If there's anything else to add. You guys think of anything or. Something I didn't cover please comment below. Ihad new subscribers thank. You guys so much I would like to do a giveaway at 50 subscribers. Iam not sure 100% that giveaway is. Iam leaning towards Zoro bars. Or maybe one of the smaller goal 0 products but. Ihave to see or maybe. One of the smaller violight products like the charge ten. One of the lights something and. Ican hit trying to think. Ican hit 50 subscribers within the next two weeks I'm going to do. That giveaway I can do. Iget up to a hundred subscribers in the next couple of months. Imight be doing a bigger giveaway with. One of the lights one of the charge tens.

Or flip tens some of the zora bars, so I'll have to see the zora bars might come as a gift card for Sora. They do have gift cards, so we'll have to see I'm gonna. Iget a wait that pans out see. What happens with subscribers see. What happens with comments. Something just fell behind. Me outside so I have to go check. That anyways guy you liked my videos. He has subscribed and watch. And keep watching and go back. And watch my old videos. And tell what you guys think. If there's something. You guys want to see. More of let if there's. Something you guys want. Me to stop doing let. Ijust want to make. This channel better. Iwant to lean towards things. That bring subscribers in quick update on just making the channel doing things. That were great in the past so actually. You know what I'm gonna make. That a short second video today. Idon't want to do one anyways guys thanks for watching thanks for subscribing stay tuned there will be.

Another video uploaded probably within an hour of. One that's going to be a little bit of a youtube rant video on. Some changes they've done. That just kind of suck but anyways guys again thank. Iwill catch you guys in the next video.

all right check. It out so the solar panels came in the boulder 100 solar panels. And obviously the goal zero yeti 400 lithium came in. Ithink a day before. That so it's after the first day it's been sunny so. Ikind of wanted to play around. It and just kind of initial impression so. It was fully charged up. This morning and I charged. Istarted charging my laptop. And I charged my phone on. It a little bit was just playing around with. It so you can see it's at about 83%. Now no input no output like. Isaid I was charging up a laptop. And a cell phone there so. All right let me bust out the solar panels. And see what kind of what kind of input. We get it's nice sunny day here on. This part of the grass so throw the panels out there. And maybe y'all plug in. Some devices and see. What the input output looks like but so far it's pretty cool. Ireally like the design it's super lightweight the solar panels come in. This kind of carrying case. And has a handle built onto the panels. And sticks out the top of the top of the carrying case. And it's not too heavy. They fold up so all right let's see. We got alright so got the panel set up. And plugged in my initial. Ido have a extension cable coming from goal zero, so I'll check. That out interested to see. How much insertion loss extra length the cable provides but.

Igot them pointed pretty much at the Sun there. They are Boulder 100. That briefcases they have. These kickstand legs. That come down and. They fold back into. Another one blurr thing is. That they when it's folded up the actual solar glass. Idon't know maybe they're maybe the glass. And whatnot is strong enough. They claim it's its really strong material so maybe. It doesn't matter, but they're really nice really high-quality kind of rubberized foot on the end at every corner for like shock protection it's pretty nice really well-built latches folded up. And then the other side has a carry handle. When you're carrying it around like a suitcase. And then let's take a look here at the Yeti 400 looks like currently getting 48 49 watts in.

Or so it was just up in the 70s. And then I went down to the 60s so. Idon't know I'm not a solar expert but that's cool it's charging maybe I'll grab my laptop. Or grab my cellphone plug. That in and so we can see a discharge. And a charge at the same time. And like I said it. Ionly charged a little bit the Tsar used. It to charge on the little. This morning so it was only eighty-three percent. Or so and we started charging some is. What it is pretty cool let. Me go plug something in alright so let. Me grab a laptop got my MacBook Pro here plugged in. And charging and the Sun kind of just went behind the clouds so let's take a look at what we got here yeah definitely can tell 14 watts in.

Ididn't turn it on so let's turn. That on real quick each interval individual section. You turn on so the inverter section. You have to turn it turns. It on if you wanted to use the USB ports. You would turn you know hit. This button turn them on same with the 12 volt cigarette lighter. You would actually turn. That section on which is nice. Because you can turn things off. And on so yeah it looks like Sun just came back out from under the clouds so it's popping back up 47 in. And almost 47 out so breaking even here pretty cool so far obviously. We haven't really used. It out on the property. Or anywhere and only had. It about a day now so. Ican't really give a good opinion but just overall quality. Everything is really well-built really easy to use the solar panel a really good quality. Everything you know it's. What you'd expect from. Something in this price range so yeah I'm curious to see.

How this works off for us making several trips up there. And using it overnight so yeah there. We go goal zero Yeti 400 lithium with the boulder 100 solar panels initial. And there's all kind of unboxing and playing around with. It okays one last thing so. If you were like me. And you were wondering when. It was bright Sun and. Iwas only seeing like. Iguess I'd like 60 70 at. One point and then up. And down Wildmutt why you're not getting a hundred watts out of honor watt panel so. Ihad the same questions. And one of the things. That I read was so. When these panel manufacturers certify their panels. Or for what their wattage is for they do. It in a laboratory environment with the perfect environmental settings to get.

That hundred watt and you're not expected to ever see. That out in real world conditions so it's kind of bogus marketing thing however which is kind of cool for goal zero is. All of the times and marketing material. They give you on their website. And in the manuals and whatnot is based on what you should see in real world. And like I said the Sun just went back behind the clouds so. Where she hid next to. Nothing here eight watts in but. Ithought that was pretty cool of them. That they would actually. They wouldn't try to feed. You a line of BS it's actual it's kind of what you expect the charge times on what you should see on these so anyway. Ijust want to throw. That out there because. Ikind of had the same thoughts in the bright sun but did.

Some reading in there. You go alright now. You guys have a great weekend. And we'll catch you around soon

So guys our new Boulder solar panels got a little bigger a little stronger. And a little more powerful so the Boulder 50 is replacing the old Boulder 30s. And our Boulder hundreds are. Now replacing our old Boulder 90s, so we've got a nice eco system going here we've still got the tempered glass the aluminum frames. And now reinforced corners to be able to go out. And play wherever you happen to be out there so our new Boulder lineup. All comes with integrated kickstand.

You push hard enough to hear. It snaps into place and that's going to give. You a nice strong sturdy connection to make sure. That you're always transmitting power to your battery as. You can see our panels come in slightly different form factors between the 50 100. And the 100 briefcase the briefcase has a sweet carrying handle so. It can go wherever. You go and it comes with a bag so.

You can stuff the panels in their keep them nice and safe from getting scratched. While you're out traveling the boulder 50. And the boulder 100. Both have the kickstand which is a sweet tilt option for portability but. That kickstand is also removable just in case. You do want to permanently mount. These solar panels to. Any roof and those are our brand-new Boulder solar panels with improved features. And capabilities for a wonderful user experience. And if you need any.

All right it's my first video ever. And it's gonna be about the lithium battery of really impressed with. It as a outdoors guy mountain bike. And road biking it's been so impressed with. This it's down here so let's take a look at. It welcomes I want to do a little review today of the yeti 400 lithium battery. This is very battery for any outdoors person on the weekend warriors other trail heads right. Now a pulling in about 41 watts I've been able to set. It up on angle the handle is amazing is. That we're doing this. When the panel's flat like. It would be on the roof. You can see we jump up immediately to about 41 watts. And pulling in many watts off of a 50 watt panel is really good like. Isaid mid Michigan mid September. This lithium it's not the MPPT bad charge controller it's the. That it's gonna pull in fewer watts off of. This panel so really good with the lithium great reviews. Idefinitely would check. More reason why it is such a great battery I'll show.

This right it actually fits in the backpack so let's just say it's not not a nice day outside. What I can actually do is take the panel itself let's connect the power source. It goes right in the bag. What I can do very easily go to the coffee shop. Wherever I'm at using the wall power cord. Ican simply plug it in here plug. It into the wall and then I'm pulling it's like 66 watts an hour so. If it's drained it takes about eight hours to fill up it's just really awesome to be able to have a battery like. This take it anywhere.

This is my renergie 100-watt folding suitcase solar panel. Ibought a few years back it's used to charge my auxiliary battery in the FJ. This is the gold zero case which is very non padded well. We got here there's a suit seems to be a solar panel inside the renergie case but that's their energy sitting there. Yet the goal zero 100 watt Boulder folding solar panels. Ijust bought a few days ago fits perfectly into the case. This case is padded a lot. More protection this floppy thing I'm going to see. Ican buy one of these cases for energy to keep the goal zero. One in then when it's in a rig. It will have a lot more protection. Ijust I'm not liking this floppy case here there's no protection in.

If you're only charging a phone goal zero just released the new Sherpa models.

They were very thin. You get a lot of wattage for what they are. They will run perfectly with a 20 watt panel. Ithink there's a 28 + panel. One of those would be great.

More durable then apples cables aren't Apple of cables suck but the lightning cable from goal zero is freakin awesome it's a lot heavier duty it's meant to be a little bit.

More rugged and be outdoors so. Iwas very impressed with. Iordered three different ones from. That but I'll I'll do a video separate for just. That anyways I am going to be closing the video out here I'm just trying to think. If there's anything else to add. You guys think of anything or. Something I didn't cover please comment below. Ihad new subscribers thank. You guys so much I would like to do a giveaway at 50 subscribers. Iam not sure 100% that giveaway is. Iam leaning towards Zoro bars. Or maybe one of the smaller goal 0 products but. Ihave to see or maybe. One of the smaller violight products like the charge ten. One of the lights something and. Ican hit trying to think. Ican hit 50 subscribers within the next two weeks I'm going to do. That giveaway I can do. Iget up to a hundred subscribers in the next couple of months. Imight be doing a bigger giveaway with. One of the lights one of the charge tens.

Or flip tens some of the zora bars, so I'll have to see the zora bars might come as a gift card for Sora. They do have gift cards, so we'll have to see I'm gonna. Iget a wait that pans out see. What happens with subscribers see. What happens with comments. Something just fell behind. Me outside so I have to go check. That anyways guy you liked my videos. He has subscribed and watch. And keep watching and go back. And watch my old videos. And tell what you guys think. If there's something. You guys want to see. More of let if there's. Something you guys want. Me to stop doing let. Ijust want to make. This channel better. Iwant to lean towards things. That bring subscribers in quick update on just making the channel doing things. That were great in the past so actually. You know what I'm gonna make. That a short second video today. Idon't want to do one anyways guys thanks for watching thanks for subscribing stay tuned there will be.

Another video uploaded probably within an hour of. One that's going to be a little bit of a youtube rant video on. Some changes they've done. That just kind of suck but anyways guys again thank. Iwill catch you guys in the next video.

Everyone I just got my brand-new panels so. Ithought I'd do a quick review today. And unboxing so first of. It doesn't come with a manual so. Everything you need to know is on the box here apparently. And the key specs here are. That it's a hundred watt mono crystalline panel of really high quality. It weighs 26 pounds which is pretty beefy so. Iordered my panels on cyber monday from Amazon. They were two hundred. And forty dollars off of a regular price of three hundred. They showed up a pretty good shape. You can see the box has a. Few scuffs a few little tears the other. Igot had more so let's crack. This open what it's like inside a lot of tape on these seams alright. Now we're ready to open up so first of. All it's packaged pretty darn well there's a big piece of foam. That slots around the panel on. All sides you can see there. These cory ated corner protectors as well so that's the foam. And then there are these corrugated corners here. That seemed like they do a good job protecting the panel. And that's important. Because the panels are glass, so they're pretty fragile so pulling this out. You realize first of. This thing is pretty heavy 26 pounds is no joke but. You know it's pretty comfortable. You can carry it one-handed no problem. And we'll just take the plastic off here, so I've got my hand here on the handle.

That actually belongs to the solar panel not the case just has a hole there as two zippers. Each side I think you'll notice is. It very far they just zip really around the corner. And down just enough to hold the solar panel out. It would have been better. If they had zipped at least halfway down. All the way so taking a look up on top you'll again see the handle that's attached to the solar panel the sides are aluminum. And they're painted black. They have these really beefy corners. That are plastic with aluminum in green. Iwon't just take the bag off here get the panel out. You can see it's an. All black panel it looks really sharp. Ilike the black edges. And the black fill in between. All the panels it's really seamless looking and again detail here about the side. You can see the edging. That really does do a good job of protecting the panel so zooming around to the top here. We can look at the latches on the unit.

And they're pretty good quality nothing's super beefy but. They seem like they'll do the job. You just simply lift. It up pull a little clasp off. And there's each side. One thing I did notice. When trying to open up the panel is. That sometimes the clasp would get caught so. Ihad undo one side start working the next side. And then the first one would actually have reattached itself so not a big deal but worth knowing and so opening its pretty easy. You get the two latches off. You just basically spin. It open it's important to make sure. You have the right side up. You don't these little fold out legs won't work. These kick stands are really helpful for getting the panel's directed in the right way for the Sun. Ihave a smaller pair of Boulder 15 panels. That don't have and it's really frustrating because. You actually have to go ahead. And prop it up with a bunch of books. Or fingers something to prop. And here you can see.

It lays down really nicely. And taking a look at the panel's themselves. You can see they're really high quality I'm guessing these are Sun power panels which are the highest quality. Most efficient panels out there that's. What they look like there aren't. Any of those silver lines on top of the panels it's an all-black appearance the glass itself has a little bit of a texture to. It like an anti-glare a little bit of texture. You rub your hand on. It seems like really high-quality glass the panel's seem like they're really high quality. Ihave no doubt this will last for 20. Or 30 years you take care of. It's a very high quality panel from. What I can tell now looking underneath. You can see there's.

One power cable that comes out it's in a standard goal zero eight millimeter power cable the only issue it's only six feet long so. If you're going to try to keep your unit out of the Sun. Or inside on a cold. Or rainy or wet day you're gonna have trouble so. You need an extension cord. You can see the two panels here are attached together permanently. One thing to note about the kickstands is. They are only available in. One angle so you can adjust them. Ithink they're 45 degrees which is pretty good it's probably. What you need most of the time but. It would be nice if they were adjustable. Now putting this away is pretty easy just stand. It up straight out the legs in. You have to figure out. What to do with the cable which is a little bit messy but. You can sort of gather. It up hold it in there. And then swing the other side closed that's. All pretty smooth the hinges seem to work well there's not a lot of wobbling or. Anything and then on the side here. What you do is you just close.

One latch and then the other. You are ready to go just grab. It by the handle you'd be very easy to carry two of these panels. Each hand this is the bag. It comes in this requires a little bit of discussion. Because the bag you can see is very thin it's really just thin material there's no padding and like. Isaid earlier doesn't unzip. All the way so I thought. Iwould show what it really looks like to put. This thing back in the bag. This is the first time I've done. Iwill get better at. And I'm guessing this the better way to do. This is to put the panel down. And put the bag over. Ijust wanted to show. How tricky it is to do with. One person because the bag is really saggy.

And so trying to keep. That thing straight. While you're maneuvering this 26 pound Pamela in the air is a little tricky oh. You can see it's not the end of the world. Ijust wish that was a little bit smoother as far as ease of use overall. Ireally liked the folding design of. This panel it's super easy to set up. Everything seems really solid, so I'm so far from very happy with the Boulder as. Imentioned earlier the six port cords were super short so. Igot a 15-foot eight millimeter extension cable from goal zero so. Ican run the panels outside. And run them to the generator inside so. This is my setup I've got a pair of these hundred watt Boulder foldable. And right inside the door there is my yeti lithium 1000 today was.

This super cloudy day, so I'm not going to do performance testing but. You can see they're. Both plugged into the MPPT controller. And with completely cloudy skies I'm getting about eight watts of panel which is not too much at. All but that's to be expected so overall. Iam very impressed with the quality of. This panel earlier in the day. When there was Sun I was getting close to 80 watts which is great so. Ithink my only nits would be. It would be nice if the carrying case was padded. And a little bit stronger. It came with a longer cord. It would be reasonable. Ihave a ten-foot cord. It would be nice if the kickstand was a stable. Ialso think goal zero gets knocked quite a bit for price but really. You compare this to the real OG panels. And other ones these are a really good value considering. That you're getting tempered glass you're getting a high quality panel with a lot of reinforcement so.

Idefinitely would recommend giving these a serious look thanks for watching.

If you're like you like to get the. Most out of your electronic accessories. When you're throwing them in your pack after. All an ounce is an ounce right the cold zero light house mini rechargeable Lantern is the light source. Even the most ultralight of backpackers should consider. It combines a bright 360 degree light. And the ability to charge your other gadgets. You bring along with its included USB port the main feature of the lighthouse mini is the dual LED light sectioning off the light pattern means. You can select exactly. How much light you need. How long the charge will last try selecting low-power using the easy-to-use dial. And only activating one LED to illuminate a tent on a dark night enough to find your gear. Or twist the dial as far as. You can to the left to engage maximum brightness the battery will drain faster. This was but a full 210 lumens is enough to illuminate your entire campsite the lanterns wire legs feel strong.

And the rubber coating on the feet grabs well onto wet rocks fold them up to access the removable lithium ion battery. This battery is replaceable which is great but the idea here is. That bringing another battery along means. That you'll never be without the power. You need the feature. That really makes the lighthouse mini indispensable for me is the included front USB port to charge other devices. Each battery holds 3000 milliamp hours which means. It will give you a full charge to. All but the largest of cell phone charging the battery is simple by using the included attached USB cable which can be tethered to a goal zero solar panel which is sold separately to complete the setup with so. Many cool features packed into a compact 8 ounce lanterns. That is bright enough to light an entire campsite. This Lantern is winning over. Even the most space conscious backpackers I've brought. It along on all of my adventures. You will — it's the gold zero lighthouse mini rechargeable lantern hey thanks for watching if.

You have any further questions about the gear. Ijust demonstrated. You can go on to a website at. That country edge comm there. You can talk to one of our gear specialists. And we'll go through. Anything we may not have shared. You like what we do on YouTube then please subscribe thanks for watching.

hi YouTube on today's episode we're gonna look at the goal zero lighthouse 400. This is a lantern and also power pack. It has stands so you can stand. It has a small connection point on the top. You just hold it on a table like. This has an emergency light. That is selectable by. This button you have a battery charge indicator right here. This dial right here is your dimmable setting so. One way as you can tell by the pictures. It will only light half of the light. That is dimmable to zero turn the opposite direction. And then you will gain. Both sides of the light. You have a port here USB so. You can charge your devices to charge. Either use the attached USB cord. This has a hand crank on top. You can take and crank away. And light up your sight. This is dimmable from zero to four hundred lumens. It has a run time of 25 to 48 hours. This weighs 11 pounds so it's not for super lightweight camping but. It is pretty light for what you're getting this also just like other gold 0 products on the bottom here has a stamp. That stamp it gives. You input it tells. You 5 volts up to 1 amp. It gives you the hand crank. Many currents you can get so 1 watt at 130 rpm. And then output is 5 volts up to 15 amps the Nomad 7 which is the small portable solar panel is 7 to 14 hours to charges off of a USB source is 5 hours. If you're looking for something to have at your house. Or in your car something you want to have for off-grid.

This is a really good solution. This is small its compact. This is an iPhone regular iPhone not a plus that's the height of. It there's a reflector that's on the top here as well as the bottom. That helps amplify that light going out so. They design this you're not just getting light that's coming out. They also wanted to every single millimeter to be used so. You notice even on here on. This outer edge outside of. This plastic this is a reflective material. All the way around so. That helps you are really wanting to get every little piece of light out of here. This gives you a really good light source. This is the gold 0 lighthouse 400. And thanks for watching you

Hey guys what's happening today. Ihave the lighthouse mini from Gold's here with. That I'm gonna test out so before. It on I'm just gonna show. What this thing consists of it's got a hook on the top like. You can hang it like a lantern it's also got a little loop right here so. You can put a lanyard through hang. You can fold up the legs like. And usually just as a table Lantern. And then finally at the bottom right here. It has a little magnet so. You can stick something or. You can use this little guy. It on a tripod so it does have quite a. Few ways you can set. This thing up so let. You the lantern in itself first the way. You charge this guy is. You got a USB cable right here. That folds around and that's the only way. You can charge this thing I know it's a goal of zero but there is no solar panel on there so you're gonna need an outside electrical source but. You can plug this into a wall outlet. You have an adapter. You can hook it up to your computer. Or not to charge it but that's. How that's done you may also notice. This guy again that right here there's a little USB plug. You can actually use. This guy as a power source so let. Ibrought out my uh phone I'm gonna plug in. Now like you can see the blue lights light up. That shows how much battery. You got let left which is pretty cool. And then right here. You can see that my phone is actually charging now. And it's charging off. This so that's a pretty neat little feature so as long as.

This charge you're always gonna have battery power on your phone alright so moving on with the light itself. This knob turns in two different ways okay. And the difference is. You turn this way you're gonna get the lantern effect out of. This which means that the whole thing is gonna light up which is gonna be a great fluid table setting or tent. Or whatnot but you can also use. You just turn on one side like. This a little bit hard to see in daylight but only. One side is lit and like. You can use it a little bit. More as a flashlight. Because it's really annoying when. You try to use a lantern in the flashlight as a flashlight. Because you're getting. That light right back in your face so a really cool feature right here the way. You adjust the brightness is simply just by turning this button right here it's pretty self-explanatory. And a little bit later tonight. Iam going to apply. This in the dock at the bottom right here. It tells how much run time. You have on and on the flashlight setting if.

You have it on low. You can get plus 500 hours out of. This guy you have it on the highest setting you can get about seven hours. You decide to use the lantern instead you're gonna have a little bit less have a run time obviously. Because you're using the whole thing but. You keep it on low you're gonna have about 400 hours. You keep it on the very highest setting you're gonna have four hours so that's kind of what you're dealing with let. Me go ahead and turn. This guy on more time just like. What I'm gonna do now is I'm gonna wait for it to get dark. And then I'm gonna try. It out here, so I'm in West Virginia which may. Or may not be the darkest place on the planet.

When you're really out in the middle of nowhere which fortunately is. Where I'm I am it's amazing so let. Me wait for and I'll see. You in a couple hours. All right guys so it finally got dark in West Virginia. You can tell it is really dark up here so let. Me step back a couple of feet. And I'm gonna turn this Lantern on. You can see what you think. All right so there you have. It rights this Lantern is on its highest setting on the Lantern mode. And it's doing a really good job of lighting this place up it's kind of hard for you guys to see but to the left. Ican see my little cabin up here. Anything else that's around let. Me go ahead and switch. It on a flashlight function so it's gonna come off. And here's the flashlight function. You can tell that it's only. One side that is lit up there. You can kind of turn. It around so really cool function right here let. Me go ahead this on dim so.

You can kind of tell the difference so dupes there. This is the demo setting on the flashlight in. This there we go like. That's the demo setting on the lantern. Once again here is the full setting on the lantern so pretty cool. This Lantern seems to be working really well. And so there you have. It guys the mini light house from gold zero. You liked this video go ahead. And click like you want to see. More like it go ahead. That subscribe button. And I'll see you next time hey.

Hey guys this is McDouble today. Igot a quick overview review of the gold 0 lighthouse mini so it's not a lot to say about. Ido really like I wanted. This Lantern for camping but. Ididn't want something too big. Iwant to be able to throw. This in a backpack too so there's a couple of cool features for one it's got. These legs so it can stand up but then as well. You can hang this so I've used. This camping before. Ilike to hang it on my tent. And it's light enough. That it'll hold it is rechargeable so pull. This out plug this into. Any USB port you can recharge. When you're done just wind. It back up and the bottom is also magnetic. Idon't know this stuck to. It so that'll help it holds onto stuff then. We got half-light or full light. This will actually show the charge. You turn it on so that's as low as it'll go I'll show. You in the Turk men and then. You want both sides. This thing gets really bright so. Now let's take a look at. It in here now with. This low setting when I'm in my tent. Iactually like to put. It on just the lowest setting possible. Because it's actually bright enough. That will light up your tent so. You can see what you're doing but uh it'll last like 400. Some hours I'll check those numbers later. You turn it up a lot. What I like to do is shine. And then you don't get. It blind your eyes. This is on all the way. It gets really bright so anyways. Ireally like it the battery life is pretty good.

You can charge a camera with. Or phone whatever you want to charge with. It from Amazon for about $70. Ibelieve provide a link down below. You guys are interested in buying it. If you're looking for a small mini lantern for a camping or. Even backpacking I think. This is a really great option thanks for watching.

what's up guys living Survival today we're going to take a look at a few different solar panel options from goal zero so don't go anywhere alright guys so in a previous video I

Today I've got an unboxing its. Something that I'm super excited about real quick. Iknow many of y'all said. You like to set up where. Ihad my camera at a different angle. And I'm gonna keep doing. That but do destruktor senses. Ican't control I gotta do. It this way for this video so just uh hello every man who let. Me unbox this it is a solar panel from goal zero I'm super excited about. This because to me solar panels are priceless. Imean they are expensive but. Imean if the world suddenly went without power people. That have solar panels. And solar chargers and batteries. And people like that was been able to harvest the sun's energy. And keep having power. Even through a time of crisis like a hurricane. Or a tornado or you know. Anything outside of their control so. Imean this is a tiny. One so I could have. All the power much compared to like. Someone that has you know thousands. And thousands and thousands of dollars in solar panels but uh it's still. Something really cool to consider charge your phone. Or the bigger ones can charge laptops. And stuff like that so let's good let's get into. This the first thing you're going to notice on. This side is you have a storage compartment. And in this storage compartment is a. Few different things you've got. This guy right here so. You can plug in a cigarette lighter. Or an inverter which we'll be testing out here in a minute. And then to do that. You just take this little connection right here. It says 12 volts you plug. It in like this the connector inside Mike.

It somehow got damaged before. Ireceived it your should not be. This difficult to connect. And then there you go. You can plug in a cigarette lighter. You know an inverter. Or anything it uses a 12 volt cigarette lighter outlet again a little connector inside mine got bent a little bit so it's pretty hard to put. It in and take it out that's the only reason I'm struggling here. You should not have. That issue with this guy right here. You can actually chain multiple Nomad 13s which is. What this unboxing is the Nomad 13. You can change multiple Nomad thirteens together so. This is a 13 watt solar panel. If you have you know two of these. You can put two together.

And have 26 watts if you've got four of them. You know obviously you might want to consider getting like nomads the 50 watt solar panel. If you're gonna you know invest in multiple ones of these so yeah just. Something to consider. This is the guide tin. This is their little charging pack thing where. You can put forward double laser trip lights in. It and charge them up. Ido not have one but. If you did have one. You could purchase one separately. And it'll charge those four double A's. And then whenever there's no Sun. You can use those four double a's to store. More energy and then you've got a USB port so.

You can charge your cell phone interview uses USB so like a headset. Or something like a Bluetooth headset so go ahead. And close it up for now. And then on this side. All you do is lift. This up flip it over. And it reveals two solar panels. This is what they look like. You just set it out in the Sun. And the Sun beams down on. It and then on this other side it's a little bit hard to see. When you have this closed. And also one thing to consider is. When you have it facing the Sun like. This you've got to like peek. It over the back and like. If you have this hooked up to like a wall. Or something then this face in the sunlight. You can't see this little light back here it'll turn green. Whenever Sun is coming down on.

It so in here of course there's no Sun I'll be taking it outside here in a little bit. And showing you but. This little guy here Oh light up green letting you know. That the solar panels are getting power but like. Isaid earlier these things are priceless considering the fact. That you know in a zombie apocalypse. Or you know hurricane sandy. Or you know anytime well there's absolutely no power but there's sunlight. You can just stick this out in the Sun. And if you have like the 50 watt. Or your daisy Cheney's. Or you have the bigger ones. You could essentially like use. This one to charge your cell phone. And then you could use.

Another one to charge your laptop. And you could use your cell phone it's. Either to your laptop. And you'll have power. Even you know in situations. Where there is you know no electricity. All gold zero has much much bigger panels so. That you could power much bigger things. That require a lot more energy I'll have. Another video very soon we'll actually show. It being used outside. And it's basically this was gonna be over a 16-minute video so. Iwent ahead just did the unboxing on. This part and I'll show. You a brief clip of. Me charging my HTC One. That using my nomad 13 solar panels from goal zero. Ihung it on a hook outside.

And then I had a 10-foot micro USB cable there only like seven bucks they're pretty sheet for the USB cable. And I had that going inside. And charging my phone. It was pretty freakin awesome. What you just saw was. Me zooming in a little light. That turns green indicating. That power is coming from the Sun to the panel's goal zero is an amazing amazing company I'll have a link in description that'll take. You to their YouTube channel. And it'll go to all their videos. They freakin send out solar panels to people in other countries who have never had electricity. And now they're able to watch cartoons have light heated water just. Everything so anything you purchased from gold zero a portion of.

It goes to a country. That you choose I don't know exactly. How that program works but I'll link to their videos. And you can click on their video. And it shows that process. And everything and. You can even contact them on twitter at gold zero solar I'll have a link to their Twitter description below. If I can remember to do. That so huge shout out to freakin gold zero for being a huge part of. This world not just the United States in other countries. And just I'm I was blown away after watching their video so huge shout to gold zero. Ihope to work with them. More in the future and I'm gonna have a lot of fun with. This and it's going to provide power in emergency situations like. If you're out in the.

You know middle of freaking nowhere in a desert. You can use this to charge your cell phone. Even though you have. When you have no other way of charging your cell phone. This will do it so just it's awesome. If you enjoy this video please give it a thumbs up. If you're new to my channel please subscribe I've got. Many more videos coming very soon on not just Android but tech related stuff like. This is what would Josh do in amount I'm gonna get to working on. It very soon but in the description below you'll find a link to my review of. This thing and showing it actually being used outside in the Sun. Ijust didn't want to make. This video any much longer.

Everybody welcome to survivalist basics again today we're going to go over my goal zero nomad 13 it's portable solar panel charge. Some small electronics such as your cell phones. And iPod shuffles and things like. It does things which we'll go over it's a really cool setup it's as. Imean it's really portable. All up at full scroll of. It a4 size so it's easy to pack. And take with you want to go hiking or camping or. You just want to if you're bugging out. Whatever and it's extremely well-made which was. One of the things personally surprised. Ithought it would be kind of dainty. And delicate but it's not it's actually very well-made very tough very durable so that's. Some great news there is a different couple of versions oh there's a nomad 7 which has its 7 stands for the 7 watts. This is number 13 for 13 watts so. One does have more power. Then an O minus 7 and that's. One of the reasons why I bought. It just for quicker charging times it's a really cool piece of equipment. When it's out in the Sun there's a small light. That comes on it goes blue. And just indicates you know. You can charge and things like. It comes with a multiple of connections so the top here. We have a USB connection so. You can charge your phone directly off of. You have what's the next. One here the 12-volt. You can charge 12-volt appliances again. You might be able to charge a laptop with. This but it would probably take. Some time at a time. You can't connect the car charger. Another piece so you can actually plug in.

This in to 12 volts. And a car charger adapter to. One small as a car charger. You can charge through. This Chinon feature so. You have multiple goals your products. You can chain them together to get. More powerful points. And then this one's a solar connection. That plugs into some other goals your products such as the battery charger. One of the really cool things. Ireally liked about. This product so the solar just simply plugs in down here. You can charge Tripoli's doublea's. And things like that in a really cool thing is. You could charge us during the day. And at nighttime bunch of batteries are charged. You can go take these batteries out. And use them for you know lights.

Whatever you want you can actually use. It as a battery pack. This here is you just plug in your USB for your cell phone. Or iPod shuffle whatever um. And then you flick the switch. You flick the switch mm-hmm. You flick the switch. It comes on you can actually power. It will charge whatever. You plugged into it which is really cool. More over you got a little light. It comes on the LED. You like mmm it's also used to say there's the solar plug in your solar there. You can plug in a USB connection. Or a small USB connection so it's really cool it's a fantastic little product. Iplugged you can plug. This directly in to your solar charger charges by registering a date. And then plug in your USB to your cellphone sorry.

You hear that little noise in the background is my little puppy. You can plug your cellphone directly in. And have you can charge multiple things at. One time which is great mm-hmm the batteries didn't come with the. Ibought me separately your Sandal batteries. You got really high ratings for things like 1800 charges so yeah it's a fantastic product. Idon't think I bought is an add-on is just like LED leg so. Idon't come on Fido. And take the batteries out. Ido have headlocks. Ido charge batteries for and. Ican simply I just bear with. Ican simply plug in the little LED strip there. And then simply switch. You have you know you'll have lights at nighttime so. You have a power cut. You don't really have. Any way of producing light. This is just a great way to do. That for yourself that is best probably in direct sunlight about is taking about three hours to charge taking a full capacity of charge fantastic product is.

Isay extremely well-made I'll put a link in below so. You guys can click on. You know link to the best price. Ican find for you guys to make life easier for you but very. You know very good quality product highly recommended. You want to have power during blackouts. And things like and just say. It will be a ton of power but it'll be enough to power your small products.

what's up guys living Survival today we're going to take a look at a few different solar panel options from goal zero so don't go anywhere alright guys so in a previous video I

Hey what's up guys Alex here ever expedition. Iwanted to do kind of test video see the interest in. Something like this it's a gold zero Nomad 7 plus solar panel packs. And gold zero to go pack a live call to go back it's called the flip 30 there're three models there's a thirty twenty to ten kind of splitting inside happen about three-quarters of. This for the twenty. And a third of it for the ten, so I'm still about. That big I'm doing this. Because every expedition to. Me is its just kind of my review techie thing adventure just wanted to kind of talk about why we get. And why I did get it the military use a deploy often. We go on our own and get to hang out in different places there's not a lot of options for clean power. You know maybe if you're worried about your devices. We should get in short circuit. Something or even having power at. Iused to wish something like. It putting it on my backpack. And be able to charge stuff. Even there's lots of times. Where my friends were asking me for a charge. And stuff I just want to kind of show. How work misconception about solar panels here. You see the indicator charger it'll light up blue. And very proximity correction in the strength of how you're going to be doing it the strength of how much solar power you're actually getting I'll go outside here live in Long Island City New York it's nice out today a good day to tense so.

This out on the sunlight we'll check the meter forgetting about bar fluctuating the two bars right. It really changes depending on your angle the direct sunlight will actually make the meter go up higher angle then your solar panel is going to be facing the Sun you're walking around it's going to vary. And you're going to be changing direction. And I'm going to be moving around but you're still going to collect light plus power you're going to get a good charge gonna take a couple hours for one of these power packs of charge but. If you're going to be walking around. All day somewhere sunny enough. Where you're going to keep. This on your backpack you're going to get a charge. You can actually directly charge your phone. You need to do as well so. Ican do a real more actual in-depth review kind of showing the features that's etc. Iwant to get a feeling see people really like walking stuck with salads ever expedition subscribe let. What you think you guys have your own solutions were on the go exploration travel and.

Everyone my name is Kevin. Iam the international sales director for goal zero I'm here to talk to. You today about our award-winning nomad 7 plus panel first. And foremost one of the lightest panels available in the market there's a couple features with. It with the full kit together. It is 363 grams but. You can actually remove. This kickstand as well as. This storage device. And bring the weight down to 260 grams so. It is a 7 watt panel. That uses the most efficient solar panel technology available in the world it's a sandwich press construction use. This panel which isn't very durable virtually indestructible. You can clip it onto your backpack onto your back on to your bicycle. Whatever it may be. One thing that's an amazing feature about. This product which makes. It a smart solar panel is. This Junction here so. This junction box what it does is. It communicates to and from the panel to. Whatever device you've plugged into. It for example if you're using an iPhone iPhones like to get a steady energy drop. If there is a fluctuating energy drop the phone will stop charging what this does is. It communicates to your phone so. When the energy dips.

You go under a ledge. Or a tree whatever. It maybe it'll hibernate your phone well then. Once the panel reaches a highest level of efficiency to charge your phone again it'll reactivate the phone. It is available across Europe today at only the premium outdoor retailers retails for 99 euros amazing panel. That is the best most efficient smartest panel available in the world today.

You the guide 10 plus kit like. Most goal zero kits comes in two components the first. One is the Nomad seven solar panel the Nomad seven solar panel forms a collector phase of gold zeros collect store. And use the Nomad seven is a seven watt mono crystalline solar panel. That operates at 17 to 18 percent efficiency which makes. One of the most efficient solar panels on the market for its size the Nomad 7 solar panels is rugged. And waterproof and as very light. And compact it also has loops on the outside of the panel so. They can be connected to things like backpacks. And tents on the rear of the Nomad 7 solar panels is a pocket. This allows us to store things like cables. And other devices that were charging on the rear of the Nomad 7 solar panels is a junction box the junction box has connections for direct connection of. Us be the direct charging of things like smart phones. It also has 12 volt outlets for where. You would use to charge things. That you'll normally charge in your car. It also has the chaining capability so. We can connect to other goal zero solar panels the second component of the guide 10 plus kit is the guide tannery charger itself the guide 10 recharger forms the store phase of gold zeros collect store. And Jews the guide ten recharger stores 10 watts of power in the four double A batteries. That are included with the kit the guide 10 plus recharger can be juiced up from. Either solar with the Nomad 7 solar panels. It can be recharged from.

Any USB power source in about six hours the guide 10 possible chargers is also capable of recharging triple-a batteries. That can be used to power other devices such as head torches. And smaller electronics guide 10 plus has a 50 watt USB output which. We can then use to charge devices such as iPhones mp3 players GPS. And it's also powerful enough to recharge an iPad so there. You have it an introduction to the goals eros guide 10 plus adventure kit just remembering the. Most important thing to do. And talking to a customer is to understand exactly. What their needs are. If there needs to recharge USB powered devices. And possibly some battery-powered devices well then the guides.

And plus kit is exactly.

Hey guys ryan here from carbon positive life. This is my review of the goal zero guide 10 plus. This is a pretty standard battery recharger it's. More expensive that you'll just plug into your wall but. It does have a few features. That make it worth. More money and overall. This has been a pretty good product for me so. It fits for batteries as. You can see endowed with two gold zero batteries as well as two energizer ones. This flips open you can put the batteries in there. You can't get them out by hand yourself. You have to put a knife in there. Something to get the first. Idon't have a knife in my office, so I'll just use. This but you get them out the rest can come out easily by hand. They also come with four of these goal zero rechargeable batteries so. You do get four batteries with. It which is great this can also recharge triple A's which does require a separate insert which. And show because I've lost. Idon't have triple-a batteries anyway so. Ican't actually recharge. It doesn't really matter to. You did want to charge triple A's. You can do that it's also splashed resistant so. This cover goes over. If it's going to be outside in light rain. While you're charging it with your solar panels which I'll talk about in a sec that's probably going to be fine as well it's.

If it's in your bag. And it's going to get a little bit wet. That should be fine girl zero tend to over engineer their products. More expensive than your standard battery recharges. That you'll just plug into the wall but. It does have a few extra features which in my opinion make. It worth the money for some people so let's have a look at the side which is really. These features are now to charge. This there're two methods to charge. You can simply get a micro USB. You can plug that in there. And plug it straight into the wall using any phone charger. That you've got that will recharge through. You also have this solar input which works with the goal zero line of solar panels so you've got your Nomad 7 plus panels you've got your no monster teens.

You can plug them straight in there. And they'll actually charge. It faster believes or not then. You charge it directly from the wall so you're out on the road. If you're backpacking if you're camping you can charge. These directly from the Sun which is an amazing feature of. This product we've also got. This USB port here so. You can actually plug into. You can see I've got. This teeny tiny iPhone recharger. You can go ahead and charge. That by flicking a switch green light means. Now supplying power obviously it's not charging anything because I'm filming with my phone at the moment but. You can actually recharge your phone. Or other devices from.

This the output is just. One amps most of the new ones. Now are charged with two point four amps coming out so a bit. More power so it's very slow to charge your phone. If you're using your phone for heavy usage like I'm filming this video right. Now then your battery will actually go down very slowly over time so it's not the best charger. Ican't get a full charge with my iPhone 7 plus definitely not maybe from iPhone 7 but I've probably wouldn't so. Kinder of for emergency situations. You can keep a bit of juice in your phone. Some other device you want to charge but really. Iwouldn't rely on this as your main power bank. It also has a little light on. It as well you flick a cloth to the light.

You can see the LED light there it's not very bright. You know I can't imagine. You would use if you've got a phone anyway. You would just use your phone. And it's not going to be bright enough to like a table to eat. You do not anything like. That so again it's kind of just like an emergency light as well so really the way. Ithought I would use. More as a power bank. And the fact it charged batteries was a plus but the way. Iended up using it was really. It just charges my batteries for me these mainly go in kids toys. They also go I'm in my office so. They go in my mouth for my Mac so that's great. They recharge the batteries are really good lasts quite a long time. This retails for about thirty-nine ninety-five. You can get a cheaper on Amazon I'll leave links in the description below as. Isaid it's more expensive. Then a standard wall charger so. If what you want is to charge double-a batteries. Or triple-a batteries then.

This is going to be. More expensive than other products but. It does integrate with the goal zero solar panels as. Isaid so you want to charge through the Sun then. This is going to be your best option. It also does have that emergency feature. You can use it as a power bank in emergency situations which. Ithink is really useful. That LED light as well as being splash resistant as well so overall. This is a pretty good product. Ithought it would be absolutely amazing I thought. Icould use it as my main power bank but unfortunately. That wasn't the case but regardless it's still a pretty good product.

If you're in the market for a battery recharger. And you're going to be outdoors you're going to be camping or hiking or. Something like it needs to take a beating or. You need to be able to charge. It from maybe your car battery. Something like that into the USB port here. Than from the wall plug in a house then. This is going to be your best option so overall. This is a pretty good product I'm very happy with. Something you're interested in please check the links in the description below. You can buy it through Amazon that's my affiliate link so. Iabsolutely appreciate. You can also see I did a full write-up of. This product, so I'll leave the link in the description below for.

That as well oh yeah thanks for watching this review. And until next time stay positive.

Hey guys Anthony here. We are going to do a quick review today of the guide 10 plus by goal 0. Ishowed it the other day in a video. That I did on my preps my weekly preps. And I just wanted to do a quick review of. It today and give you guys a little overview on what this is. What it does and some of my thoughts on. It so far I think it's its definitely a great product to have in. That it will charge devices for you. And then you could recharge. It several ways. One way being with the goal 0 solar panels. That I have also done a video on recently. This is the unit's power source here the on/off button the green light shows. That the unit has power. It is charged and then the next. One is the flashlight which. Ithink goes for about a hundred hours on the battery pack. You have a mini USB here. You have a larger USB here. And then you have the solar input to plug. It to the solar panel which I'll show. You it comes with four double A batteries. That are stored underneath. This little plastic door. You can get triple A's but. You need an adapter for the triple A's but. It will do triple-a batteries. And again these are the double-a batteries. That it comes with ok system fits in the palm of your hand it's not heavy. One of the things I like. It I like is that. It comes with the comes with a. Few cables one being this USB cable. That you would plug in to the port. And then you would plug. This into your computer which. Ihave a clip that I'm going to show. How that's done you plug. It into your computer. And then it charges the system with a guide 10 then.

You can use the solar input cable. That it comes with. And I'll just and the camera up just a bit. And you can plug it into. You see on the solar panel. That says guide 10 wells that's. Where your port would go right there. And then you would take the unit just like. This you would put. It out in the Sun put. This guide 10 in the pouch. Or in the shade somewhere. Where it wasn't exposed to the Sun. And then you would place the Nomad 7 charging panels in the Sun. And let this die 10 plus charge back up again so that's. What that cables for this guide 10 plus will do. Iphones I know the previous. One did not it'll also power your iPad. And it will as I will show. You charge a smartphone by plugging in your smartphone cable into the guide 10. And then plugging it into your smartphone. You can power on the unit. And we should see the phone begin to charge there's your phone.

You can see here what the phone is. Now charging right here see the little green just lost. It but the phone is charging and the unit will dump power into the phone. Ithink it'll dump enough power for three phones before. You need to recharge the goal zero guy ten plus again so it's a very handy up a piece of gear to have to charge your cell phone. And then to charge your iPhone power your iPad. And then also use as a backup flashlight power your GPS unit recharge your GPS unit. And with the goal zero nomads seven solar panels. Ithink this makes a great just a great set so there. You have it guys send. Me your questions or comments. It takes about six hours per recharge with the salt using the solar panel. If it's totally dead. And it takes I haven't tried. It totally dead on the computer but.

Ithink it takes up to an hour. Or so on the computer so there. You have it guys send. Is your questions or comments thoughts about. This if you have it. How you like it anthony signing off take care.

Hey guys Anthony here with a quick video just want to show. This gold 0 guide 10-plus works for me. Ihave an iPhone this to charge. Or top off my phone by the end of the day today. Iwas at about 40% I just plugged. And within an hour of being in. This charger hooked up to. This charger my phone will be in the high 90 98 percent. Even 100% charged and yesterday. Itopped it off twice with. This gold zero and then. Ijust recharged the gold zero on my computer. Iget home even charge. It on my solar panel. Ihave a video on so a very good item to have guys. This gold 0 guys 10 plus. You could also have your rechargeable batteries in triple-a. Or double-a great item top off your phone small equipment iPod. And you'll be good to go guys its worth the. You know 40 bucks whatever. It costs that's gold zero guy 10 plus thanks for watching.

Hello friends welcome to. And telecast this initial review first impression video on the goal zero nomad 7. And guide 10 + solar recharging kit so it's pretty straightforward. You got your solar panels right here. They come with this protective film on them you're supposed to remove. This before you use them. These hooks here or nylon loops to hook. It on so you could carry. This on your backpack. It down to something else. You just be operated independently. And then on the back actually. More think here there's a magnet in here to keep. This closed it just folds up like a little notebook okay. And then on the back. You have a pouch that carries. All of your accessories. These are what came with the kit. Ibought you got the battery charger here we'll get into. More in a moment excuse. You have an adapter so. You can also charge triple A's as well as the double A's. That came with and then. You have different type of dap ters here so. You have a USB adapter.

And a car charger 12 volt type adapters. And then these plugs here let. This around you can see. It so the nice thing about. This is the instructions are right printed right on the inside panel so there. You have your input port. You will it tells where the different devices go. This can also be chained together with other Nomad 7 panels. And then put your guide tin on there. You know you would charge them. Even quicker and like. Isaid they're labeled so. One is for the 12 volt. This cable one is for the guide 10. This cable here okay so um oh. You know before you the guide 10 I'll just. Even see you can get a good look at these directions here. Even have little picture the best way to orient your solar panel. And I'm going to do. Another video on how to use. This thing and a final review but I'm sure.

It works fine so but that'll be separate videos to be looking for. This is just first impressions okay so. You your guide tin these can be purchased individually. Or together so I just got the kit. Ineeded the capability to charge up nine volt batteries so. This thing's pretty cool it's got. This heavy-duty metal braided cable here so. You wanted to hang you could hang. And then it's kind of weird looking through the camera doing this but your batteries right here. Me see here pop one out for you. You can see it's pretty straightforward just. You know plus two plus nice lids. They also sell a rubber case for this protective case as well but. Either going to be in my backpack. Or in the kid, so I didn't think. That was necessary and then.

You can see here on the back they've included. Some instructions on what the different lights mean. When you're charging different items so that's pretty cool. That it's right on there. And then looking at the front here try to keep. It here keeps it focused. You guys looking down the front here. You have your different inputs so. You have your input for the solar. You can also charge. This via USB so you know. You don't have to only use. You charger you can use. This as a battery charger daily just get a USB cable. And plug it into the wall. Or your computer and then. You have your USB out. And that's for charging you know devices like. This like your iPhone. You know so something like.

This can charge an iPhone okay so. You got your three switches here you're off you're on the light will be green. If the batteries are good. And then it also has an LED. And it's pretty bright. They say last verb I forget. It pretties impressed like 100 hours. Something off these batteries is. What I was reading excuse. This cold weather coming in has got. Me feeling under the weather again but anyways so yeah. You can imagine how much the double a's are. How much for those way there's a little bit of weight to. This but it's pack able very easy to pack. You know on your arm on the outside of your backpack. While you're walking as long as the Sun is up high. Or behind this is going to charge. It does need direct sunlight to effectively charge. It came in this box. This box looks horrible. Ibought this on Amazon. This box is just warped. Iopen the package I was like oh. This isn't broken but. It was packed inside. Some other packaging inside. This box so it didn't get damaged at.

Ijust wanted to show. This box it just has. Some interesting stuff on how. It works and of course. It comes with instructions — I've already read those but I'm just giving you guys the initial my initial opinion. You will on this so anyways. Imean tilt this up a little bit there. You go, so I'm zoomed out maybe okay so here. It kind of tells you the devices. It can charge so many charges you'll get out of. It so for like an iPhone you'll get like two charges. You know or maybe three. It just depends on I'm guessing I'll probably two charges off of my iPhone. And then it can also charge up tablets. And stuff like you so your iPads. Or your Kindles whatever those other ones are called I'm not into.

That but anyways so. Ijust thought this would be a good idea to have since my system. You I'll put a link somewhere in the video maybe up here to my battery philosophy video. And since my system. Iprimarily use double A's on only double A's. You know I absolutely can't find something that'll. Ineed that'll run off a double A's but pretty much. Most of my gear runs off double A's. This was the best route to go. Ican charge up my batteries for my flashlights. And keep those going but two. Ican also charge up things like my iPhone. Or an iPod you know that's pretty cool. When you're out there for a long time. You know maybe you want to watch a movie in your tent before. You go to sleep on your iPhone. You know so anyways yeah that's that's my initial impression. Ithink it's its put two put together pretty well.

Imean there's some little things like. You may notice this is in here crooked. Ithink it's supposed to be perpendicular to the corner. These don't quite line up as. You can see but you know. Whatever it looks like it's pretty sturdy I've seen videos. Where they're just thrashing on these things the company. That makes these goal zero the guy like just tosses. It on the floor from like. You know five or six feet off the floor so. It looks pretty good it's got good heavy-duty zippers got. These nice kind of rubber zipper pulls on. Me just flip it back over. Once again it looks like a heavy-duty nylon. This is the latest model so they've added. This kind of it's not really glow-in-the-dark but. These threads are sort of reflective it's not a hundred percent like reflective thread but. You need to define it in the night. You could whatever. Idon't know why you would have. It out in the nighttime. Because it's a solar charger but.

Whatever I could have done without the little green stripes. This is good a kind of close up of the solar panel here for you. Now like this has got a protective film on. It for you know shipping and storage. They first ship it out so. You need to remove that I'm not really going to remove until. You don't want to get. These scratched in you live in an area. Where there's a lot of dust. You know dusty conditions you're camping in. You close this those are going to rub together ever so slightly but in your backpack they'll rub together. And then you're going to scratch. What I'm going to do is I'm going to take like a I'm going to cut like a piece of fel cloth. Or like a chamois or a ShamWow yeah. You know honey got my sham wows love those but anyways Ben just put. That in here to protect. These from rubbing together probably. What I'm going to do the other thing.

Iwas doing the research on. This newer version is. Ithought the older version had a hook. And loop or velcro closing system. This has a magnet I was kind of disappointed at first. Ithought it'd be velcro but. It stays together you first get. This is kind of stiff. It wants to spring back open but. You can see now like yeah not going to open especially. If it's in your pack it'll be fine so there. You go the goal zero guide 10 plus solar charging recharging kit with the Nomad 7 solar charger alright friends appreciate. You watch the video as always your support makes. These videos possible so please show your support by clicking the like button share in my videos commenting on them. Ido appreciate feedback so. You guys would help. Me by doing that I'll be motivated to keep putting out videos. And until next time friends. This isn't elegir signing off be well you.

what's up guys living Survival today we're going to take a look at a few different solar panel options from goal zero so don't go anywhere alright guys so in a previous video I

Hey everybody it's the Walker so. What are we doing today well today it's solar Sunday. And we're gonna be doing a review of the gold zero Nomad plus let's take a look at. This as the name Nomad 14 would seem to indicate the rated output is for a maximum hypothetical 14 watts it's a folding solar panel. And uses magnets to hold itself closed so basically the back pocket has a zipper you're holding this cable the cable is nice it's um pretty robust unlike your usual thin USB cables. That come with other solar panels. This is actually one of the reasons why I bought. This I got this um at eBay. It was an open box discount type deal so. Ididn't pay full retail for it. Ijust put it out in a lower bid. And then the seller accepted. It the reason why I bought. It is because I have. This Sherpa the Sherpa 50 Sherpa 50 has a proprietary input. Icould charge this via solar. Or with a plug and. Iuse this for my home preparedness such.

As if there's a storm. Or also use this for trips like car camping or from going to like a hotel. Or something like that. Ireally don't take. This into the woods. Unless I'm using a pulk sled. Or I'm not going very far from the vehicle but. Idid want a way to charge. It and the plug plugs right in. And very nice compared to your average USB type plug then. It just opens up like. That the door here acts as a stand. And I sure if you can see because of the. All the Sun blocks in the Sun here but it's charging good. And it tends to charge. Iwould say should get. Some shade on this thing well. It tends to charge pretty quick. Imean very quick well I'd love to see. It but in any case. These this to make a very nice combo. And that's why I bought.

This I'm gonna put a link. Where you can get your own Sherpa 50 there on discount. Now so you can get. These pretty reasonably price. Even comes with the inverter makes a great preparedness combination also the back pocket / stand is removable with magnets I'm gonna put up the weights. And the dimensions for this the weight. Though is one of the downsides for example. This is a 13 watt panel I've reviewed. This one as a stand as well. This one is the ECCN so the rated output in optimum conditions is nearly the same oops damnit dip thing off but the weight is a lot less I'm going to point out. One of the criticisms. That people made of. This panel and they're absolutely right.

These little magnetic holders they're glued on they just come right off so that's. One of the downsides I'll have to glue. It back on but I really don't bother. Itend not to use the stand itself. Ijust kind of um prop. It up on my pack or. Something like that I'm plugging this iPad. We have some we have. Some clouds we're at five point. One six by point five seven of an amp there're the clouds we'll see. If we can't there do. We have a restart we have a restart at point seven six of an amp by five point. One five volts and. These conditions I'll test charging my cell phone, so we'll see. We get in about an hour. Or so time is 208 32%. We got you have clouds. You have some mix clouds. And Sun there so we'll see. What we get charging it at 07 eighth of an amp at 515 volts we'll come back to. This we've got a little bit of clearing here there's. Some upper level hey so it's basically blue sky so. Iwant to show you.

Something the panel is charging the phone at five point. One three volts by point nine five of an amp is solar intensity thing is reading two lights with. One flashing now if. Ido something which makes the phone draw in. More power now the draw is. One point one of an amp basically the panel can accommodate a greener draw then the cell phone normally charges. That so what you're seeing here is not actually the maximum potential of the panel in. These conditions it's. What the phone is actually accepting from the panel it'd be the same way. If this was directly plugged into a USB outlet so right. Now we're charging at five point. One three volts by point nine six. Or nine seven of an amp so let the test keep going some clouds are moving in so. Ithink it's a good time to stop the test. Ihad to move the rig over charging at five point two volts by point 3/8 of an amp looks like 869 milliamp hours in 1 hour. And 13 minutes okay in. One second there we are 870 milliamp hours.

One hour and 13 minutes let's see. We got for the phone 327. And it's 93 93 percent charged ok 327. And 93 percent charged the goal zero Nomad 14-plus did pass. All of his testing I think. It charged his cellphone fast enough considering the intermittent nature of the Sun the charge error countermeasures did seem to work but the question is done. Irecommend this panel well. Iguess it depends. If you have a Sherpa 50. Or Sherpa 100 then absolutely the reason being its pretty much the only panel which will. That I know of what you'll actually charge. It in the Sun so yeah. Irecommend it less. Though if you're backpacking or for bugging out via backpack buggy out of winter bug out bags. Or whatever the reason being is. Ifeel it's a bit too bulky. And maybe a little bit too expensive considering other options which are available. However base camp for car camping for your preps for your home yeah sure why not.

All right it's like you've seen five. Me a thumbs up hit the subscribe button. And as always thanks for watching.

You hey guys Corbin with the Wasatch gear review today I'm gonna do a review on a new item it's the gold 0 venture 30 phone rechargers. Or camera headlamp tablets. That type of electronic devices. Nothing about this device have never used. It so let's dive into. It together what we can come up with, so I'm gonna start by reading the back of the venture box. It is a 7800 milliamp recharger power phones tablets cameras. More lightweight and pack able from the airport to the trail works with Apple Android. And Windows devices waterproof design spray. It down take it to the beach leave. It in the rain engineered with a IPX 6 rating to handle. Whatever mother nature can throw at. You no rubber plugs needed which is amazing to. Ifirst pulled this out excuse. Me out of the packaging you'll see. That you've got a cord. That comes with this that's plugging the micro USB port. One of the bigger USB ports but the top USB port didn't have a plug for it. Iwas thinking you know. This be waterproof that I've read. That somehow they've made. It completely waterproofs no matter. What it is solar ready optimized too quickly.

Or to charge quickly from goal 0 Nomad solar panels. Any USB port built in micro USB cable tangle free charging with phones. And tablets certified cables for efficient charging well that's awesome dual 24 amp USB ports. You do have 2 you can charge two items at the same time to high-speed port cables of dishing out the fast discharge possible at the same time power to devices at. Once to share with a buddy so that's right off the back of the packaging guys so. Now we'll get into the box. What we got it does come with the instruction manual user guide the venture out there's the venture my friends. Ihaven't weighed yet that'll come with the review like. This is just a preview again so. Idon't really again know. Anything about I haven't got to use. It in the field anything so. Idon't know how well. It works but it is a goal zero so. It has to be pretty dope so here's your cord. This side out that is your micro USB port. It wraps around underneath the unit.

You pull this out and that's your USB regular sized so. You also can charge from. This out of you leave. This plugged in of course. You can just plug in your phone to the micro USB. And start charging right there. You can also plug one into the top so. You can share the power. These does have two buttons on. One button here's battery life. It'll show how much battery is left. Each light indicator is 20% of course. You have five so that's 20 40 60 80 a hundred percent so. This is only got sixty percent charge a little over half on. This side there's a light. This is 70 lumens it is very bright which I'm sure. You guys can see there it's very bright. Now to change the light does have a bunch of different settings so to change. You turn and then you go to turn.

And hold that button down you're gonna see the unit flash. And then you can select through three four fives. One two three four fives. Now you're holding down the flashlight button, so I'm gonna go to. We were on setting one which is the brightest flashlight so. Iwent to setting to let go of the flashlight button that's going to be the dim mode for the flashlight. Now I'm going to hold down the button again wait for the light to blink. And I'll move it to the select the position number three which will be light number three see light number three blinks I'm gonna let go that's going to be your bright emergency strobe I'm gonna hold down the button again until. It blinks we'll go to selection 4. Iremember correctly section selection 4 is the low emergency light. And then selection number 5. Iremember correctly the selection number 5 let go. This is a bright different type of strobe which.

Idon't know you guys know. Ifigured I'd let you guys take a look at. It before what it was. That is 70 lumens signaling SOS so. That would be your fifth selection. Now I'm gonna hold it down wait for word to blink. And I'm gonna put it back to the flat with flashlights setting the bright. One which is number of position number. Or light number and you're back to your bright light so guys that's really. Iknow about the goal zero venture 30 so far. Ihave not got to use. Yet so as soon as this through the rigors of what I like to do which is rock climbing and backpacking I will come back. And give you guys the review on. This I've heard nothing but good about gold zero. They are from Bluffdale Utah. That well you know we're Wasatch Gary's view is based out of Salt Lake City Utah Bluffdale Utah is.

One of our suburbs the it's a local company for me, so I'm supporting local with. This so we'll see what happens. Now again for anyone new to the channel. This is a preview I could be missing stuff. Imay already know I have not used. Yet so as I dive into. It in the field I will get better acquainted. If there are other functions which. One other function that just came to my mind. Idid read is each USB port. Idon't know if I'm saying this right so on the review I'll go into depth. You can program to put out a different to. Whatever device you have connected to. Each device takes a different amount of amperage to efficiently charge the battery. This will actually scan through a bunch of different. Whatever you columns which. All on the review I'll know. And it'll actually select which one's the best for charging.

That particular device. One can be set differently to different. You know devices and settings on. Iwill get more knowledge on. That with use I'm so excited to have the goal zero so again guys goal zero venture 30. Iwill be coming out with the review on. It soon that's the end of. This review guys everyone lives well be safe. And adventure on you.
