1. Plug in the phone to the solar panel 2. Open flashlight and point it to the solar panel 3. Infinite battery life

[@yutuniopati]

You will only drain the original ammount of energy there were in your phone at the end you will recover 1% of this energy.

[@panos_7gr914]

DONT MOVE😂

[@ggiillii2813]

Ok... r/woosh

[@solarpanel8195]

that kind of repetitive energy can only be used with Magnets my friend. Oh and rotating mercury

[@oofig]

its a joke people

[@jeremyjudkins]

I had the 2 panel model that I tested and I could definitely see that 4 panels being useful when charging more than one device for the extra power.

[@escapetherace1943]

It's actually more efficient to charge a battery then the phone, than to charge a phone than the battery, but not for the reason you think. Yes you lose power going from solar to battery to phone and it is 'technically' less efficient but the battery can accept higher amperage, meaning you will be able to take advantage of and capture much more sunlight as electricity initially, that the mechanical losses later are minimal in comparison

[@genkiferal7178]

some vehicle starters have micro-USB slots - so, could I somehow hook that up to a solar panel? At least one of my phones will refuse to work if it gets too hot from sitting in the sun.

[@adventurousloner]

Agreed

[@ianvink]

Very helpful Jerry, thanks for taking the time to create it. Up Voted

[@GoBears1313]

Wow! I was pretty shocked at how fast that solar charger is. Nice find.

[@coolcatcarolena4951]

Excellent. Those of us living on the road can really use products like this. I boondock frequently so I'll have plenty of opportunities to use it. Thanks for the review. I'll let you know how it works out! Have a great time on your trip.

[@Odium1002]

And it never got updated on youtube, ha! Nice vid man, appreciate the effort you put in ;).

[@djentlover]

I just came here for the soothing voice.

[@Doctoberfest]

I'm a bare bones, broke back mountain, back country camper and the issue I have with solor panels is simple. They only work with sun. SO, my suggestion is to pair it with a battery bank (or banks depending on what it takes for each of your devices to charge from completely dead to 100%) charge your banks before you leave and and bring all of it. Only charge your devices off the solar panel until it starts getting shitty out and then you'll have your batteries to back you up in foul weather.

[@TaroutCommodore]

OK Mr.Obvious.

[@danielleyva7881]

Broke back mountain is your fave. Lol. Especially that first funky scene with the 2 guys huffing and puffing. Lol. Just giving u a hard time.

[@RangerCaptain11A]

the Army gave me a six panel charger. we had night vision goggles, radios, red dot sights, gps. something always needed charging, and you wanted 100% before sundown. i had it lashed to my rucksack. it worked great when new, but as it got scratched over time it slowed down.

[@jaxon19kira]

I imagine it's hard not to scratch it in the army. But most people probably won't scratch it haha

[@farhanniloy7552]

Bro , could you recommend me a tough staelite phone tat come with GPS .

[@AlphaSporeGaming]

Bro nothing you just listed needs charging they all take battery’s

[@RangerCaptain11A]

@@AlphaSporeGaming every one of those had removable rechargeable batteries, and the solar panel was the charger. were you there?

[@AlphaSporeGaming]

@@RangerCaptain11A no they don’t. Night vision, red dots and daggers (gps) take double A battery’s. Radios take Asip battery.

[@25meatman]

Please do let us know how this works with repeat usage. I am a financially particular kinda guy who appreciates purchasing 'quality' the first time. Also, I'd like to thank you for the work that you do, your videos are very informative. If you are ever in Arizona, and would like to stress - test phones with large John Deere construction equipment, let me know.

[@bablobhai]

woah man !! your scalp is a great reflector lol !! your videos are awesome and you're even more awesome !!

[@jdneilso]

I think you convinced me to buy something I didn't even know I needed. ☺

[@fruitjuice_]

I bought one of those when I went to Greece. I believe mine was made by a different company though, maybe it was Anker.. Anyways, it worked really well for me. It did take some time to charge but it still worked!!

[@mohamedbensalem9185]

Keep it on Jerry, you're making a career out of this ! :)

[@toetie2019]

Mohamed Ali ha he sure did

[@i_watch_everything]

Can I say that your voice is awesome!!

[@unowild]

I hang the panel off the back of my backpack as I walk around town doing what I do, I also place the phone in airplane mode for faster charging.

[@bazin-c]

Love the shirt!... "Snap it in like a LEGO".

[@SmoothNDangerous]

awesome video and enjoy your trip to Thailand :)

[@Coachscaloni]

Man your voice 👍👌

[@AmmarAbotouk]

I want him to tell me a story before bedtime

[@AleksandrDemurin]

Interesting, whether it will loose the efficiency if you will put this charger on the winowsill (so there will be a glass between solar panel and sun) or not?

[@karebu2]

Depends on how you define worth. If you're thinking in financial terms, you can never break even the cost of the solar panels from merely charging the phones. It's more likely that the equipment breaks down first.

[@Epictutorials]

Great video. I'm sold - I want one.

[@usmanzfr274]

You have the best voice on KZbin bro 👍👌

[@bluebox2037]

tempting. debating a purchase

[@HoldLeadersAccountable]

Cool, Thanks for the info!

[@TSOL_in_LOS]

I'm in bkk would have been cool to meet you. hope you got out to an island or the mountains up north. Bangkok can be a drag. Thanks a lot for your great videos.

[@TestTest-zr7ks]

You can also angle the solar panels at 30degree's towards the sun. (flat on ground is not the best or fastest charging way). Depending on your location, it must be 30 to 45degree's angled towards the Sun (some websites can tell you which direction is the best for your location. I'm In Cape town, South Africa. So for us it must be 30-35degree's maximum... not above 35degree's and for my region the panels must face North.

[@nancymckeedawn6018]

Great video

[@MrTimdtoolman1]

That looks like it might be a lagit alternative if you are somewhere that doesn't have a plug. nice work.

[@jstnb3639]

Can you do a stress test and breakdown on the Motorola Moto G4?

[@sahilsanil9662]

Would there be a better output if 5 solar panels would have been used?

[@adamjensen8073]

which phone do you use?? i am looking for a phone is a oneplus 3 good and is the Sony Xperia Z5 beter ????

[@BobbyJay1]

For Thailand it would be fantastic. They have great weather.

[@8UPERIC]

That is a really nice product!

[@bobthebuilder7584]

I love your videos

[@nikthegreek4223]

hey Jerry. I think that is time to make a test on the moto z and z force this phones are light,thin and have some huge 5.5 inch screens. The best environment for a bend to take place.Can you prove that I am wrong or correct. Thank you.

[@IndianPrince07]

great video jerry

[@maxryder8597]

I know this is 4 years to late but I just found the channel. I clicked the amazon link for the panels but it directs me to a cable... Is there a current amazon link for this product? Or something similar? Thanks

[@MarMar-pb8ht]

Dear bro. You are way better than any instructions booklet. I could Charge My phone thanks to your vídeo. God bless You with love ❤️ in your life.

[@paulzaim7900]

I was expecting this to be a Pokemon go video

[@boyermat]

Hey, nice shirt!

[@lukerowland7504]

Where did the actual solar panel charger come from and what was the cost?

[@dog_snax2098]

Nice t-shirt.

[@brieftodo]

Solar panels have a longer life span and work far more efficiently when they are cooler so it is best not to have them laying on the ground and a black pouch may not show the dirt but it is a seriously bad idea in helping the panels to retain the heat.

[@Lagittaja]

People should also remember that there's different types of solar panels and since solar is being constantly developed don't expect a cheap product necessarily be as good as a more expensive product. You get what you pay for.

[@anm6r]

Jerry this solar charging supporting the USB type C?

[@dc3517]

could you do the leeco le max2 x820 bend test?

[@spaghet2798]

Jerry can you please in the next Bend,Scratch test, when you use the picks to scratch the phone can you go to 8 scale i want to see what happens thx.

[@lighttbearer]

Jerry, where is the link for the solar powered charger for the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. Thanks.

[@justchillin7274]

where should i go camping here in cali?

[@BrainRotBehaviour]

is it still usable now? i wanna buy it

[@morganthus6323]

You should cover the solar panels so they don't get damaged by the sun.

[@kingaxlrosesspiceandeveryt1719]

Does your solar charger constantly blink off and on?

[@yusufahmed3589]

Can u plz do a durability test for an Asus zenfone 2?

[@shitboxenthusiast1557]

it suprises me how fast it charges, even with your wifi on

[@adventurousloner]

I'm always skeptical of these with no power storage or on bigger ones with no inverter.

[@SionynJones]

Cool video

[@dakshkhorana286]

Can it charge through all 4 ports?

[@asistoli_x]

hitman using his solar powered charger.

[@thiefrules]

the answer to questions in titles is always no and it especially applies here

[@MangeshShinde7]

hey zack plz do the teardown of Leeco le 2..

[@mnfnaz3707]

Is it current saving?

[@EmperorTerran]

good stuff

[@prakatbaniya1294]

hello jerry .....i have a samsung galaxy j2....can u do a test on that phone!! ☺☺

[@justinparry5197]

Thank you

[@dr.akheraja5883]

[@arttu3232]

what happened with your S7 Active?! That's like some hammer damage.

[@MacintoshFanTechnology]

Nice video

[@vkagri]

hi sir i want this where is bye now

[@chaitanyanegi2296]

Did u shoot ur phone?

[@lecrazykid25]

What was the update?

[@kolle128]

Why not angle the solar panel towards the sun? You loose around 1/3 of potential power.

[@Paveynator]

ZTE Axon 7?

[@CZARNYEU]

Nice Video 😃👍❤

[@iosafnc]

Your voice is hypnotising

[@emilianoavalos3937]

How I can get this one?....I'm from Mexico,

[@advantured7764]

Good Share. Nice

[@foch3]

Have fun.

[@towme_maybe]

sun is not the only thing that is shining

[@100subsnovideos9]

Hey, can you please do a durability test on the Xperia X performance? Some reviewers are saying the build isn't very good

[@kingmarz3635]

Sony have been making shit phones lately

[@GeoDelGonzo]

I'm curious myself as well; I cracked my Z3 with no effort and needed an immediate replacement. So I went for the X Performance and the phone feels solid. The screen itself is interesting, because it feels thicker and comes with beveled edges, but I want Zack to test it.

[@GoogleHelpYou]

Sound good, but I will have to stand under the direct sunlight for hours

[@iCannoNz98]

That's pretty cool.

[@supersnebz392]

How long does it take to charge the iPhone 6/6s plus?

[@ChrisHarrington540]

I would assume less time because the battery is smaller but, iPhones don't have fast charging either, so the input amps are lower than phones with fast charging.

[@shelleydavis3445]

Does your cell phone have to be a smart phone or will it work with an older model?

[@TaylorSoloaiJR]

Should work on older models too

[@Chrissssssssssssssssssss]

*Good job you put the Samsung S8 in the shade... Or it would blow up and start to charge the solar panels haha*

[@09BUGHI]

what if it's cloudy outside? will it still work?

[@Poebat]

Not as well

[@singing308]

Yes!!!! Love your shirt!!!!

[@JerryRigEverything]

+singing308 Fits perfect!

[@NoName-jz4lc]

+Matheus Caixista Ahahaha I see what you "unsnapped" here...

[@munenex]

Today's marketing executives- here is our new solar panels charger. For indoor use only.

[@BOLDIenzo]

hey man i want your t-shirt!!! :D

[@ritwiksekhri1729]

Please test oppo f1 plus

[@ThePaintballgun]

What latitude do you live at tho?

[@jeremy9256824]

i would advise you and people that heat from the sun kills your phone batteries , so keep the phone in a shaded area

[@grandprofile9235]

5V 1A is recommended

[@jaxon19kira]

This dude has the byakugan

[@tgmrichard]

No Port for dash charge :(

[@topermastercomedy5732]

Snap it in like a Lego. Nice shirt.

[@desiredditor]

so this panel is it water proof or does it charge more than one device in dim sunlight or does it work indoors

[@JerryRigEverything]

+Sameer Sharma it doesn't work inside, but it is water resistant!

[@desiredditor]

+JerryRigEverything so which is ur Best phone u own a lot of phones also can u try testing some budget phones like moto g

[@SionynJones]

Solar panels work anywhere there's light artificial or not but not efficiently and even when you tilt them towards the sun because of bandgap losses your only looking at about 20% efficiency. The best way to test any photovoltaic cell is to measure it's short circuit current with a amp meter

[@leediot6584]

Would be cool but we never see the sun in the UK lol

[@MuhammadAli-wo5cw]

my dad's gonna be in Thailand next week :p
