Overview

Not a battery bank, the FSP30 is a four-panel solar charger that folds to the size of a laptop. Its steel rings on the panel edges allow tying it to a pack, tent, truck or roof with zip ties or bungee cords.

Three ports can charge at the same time from one unit, and the folded size suits a pack or a vehicle. Solar output varies with the sun, and with no built-in storage the devices only charge while the panels are lit.

Who it's for

A backpacker or RV traveler who wants quick daytime charging for small electronics from a fold-up panel. People who need overnight power or laptop charging need a battery bank or larger panel.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Three output ports usable together
  • Folds to about laptop size
  • Steel rings for tying down
  • Waterproof per the special features
Cons
  • No built-in battery
  • Daylight needed for any output
  • Port count described differently in the title

Performance notes

Output depends on the sun angle and shading, and the combined power across the ports is capped at the rated figure. The four folding panels expand the collecting area while keeping the packed size small. Charging speed for a phone falls when several devices share the output.
