Chad's Crappy Corner & his fourth gadget for his July Theme.

A perfect choice for Chad's July Cheap Gadget Theme is “Cheap Summer Solar Gadgets”.

Chad's fourth summer gadget is a Solar Powered External Battery Pack. Soiler alert if you haven't watched this week's show. Chad hated the one he bought. He said it's a piece of crap. BUT, the one Chad originally wanted but wasn't available in time for this episode, is now available. So I'll post info on that one. It's a 6000 mAh Solar Powered Phone Charger - External Battery Pack with Universal Charging Cable for Smartphones, Tablets by Green Lighting. The 1 watt solar panel absorbs energy from sunlight, to power the internal 6000mAh Lithium-Ion battery. The convenient suction cup allows you to stick the power bank to a window, so you can charge your device indoors or on the go. When fully charged, this portable power bank can recharge your phone as fast as 1% per minute, so you can be fully charged in a flash. If you're looking to quickly recharge the phone charger itself, you can also use the attached USB cable to charge directly from a computer. A super-bright LED provides the perfect amount of light for any situation. LED indicator lights let you know the current battery level as well as when the unit is charging, so you're never left guessing. Each Window Mounted Solar Rechargeable Power Bank includes all the accessories you could possibly require. A handy 4-in-1 charging cable features lightning, micro USB, USB-C, and 30 pin connectors, compatible with most modern devices.

 

Remember, neither Chad nor I got to review this particular gadget in person. This info is from Amazon. But it's the one Chad wanted to order and it got way better reviews than the only one Chad could get in time for this for this show. And it's only about $15 vs $20 for the crappy one.
