Q: Can your solar charger harm my device?
A: No. Flexopower products have integrated electronic controls preventing damage. Additionally, it detects what voltage is drawn from the device and automatically adjusts between 3.7V and 6V. Other products in the market do not have such controls (and some are even more expensive).
Q: how long does it take to recharge an empty cell phone battery?
A: Typically 75 minutes, depending on the capacity (size) of your cell phone
Q: Your Flexopower SolarPouch is so light and thin. Is it durable enough also for outdoors?
A: Yes! Dont let the weight of the SolarPouch fool you (125g)! Advancements in material science make things smaller, lighter and more durable. For instance the solar cells itself have a life expectancy of 20 years!
Q: Is it water proof?
A: The entire Sunlinq SolarBlanket range is water proof. The SolarPouch and the SolarUno are splashproof.
Q: How long does the energy bank of the SolarPouch hold its charge?
A: A fully charged energy bank looses half of its load in approximately 11 days.
Q: Can I charge from the SolarPouch or the SolarUno even when there is no sun?
A: Yes. The integrated batteries deliver power when there is no sun: indoors, at night or heavy overcast
