Features
The backpack incorporates an integrated solar panel on the fascia of the bag which soaks up sunlight and stores the energy generated from the solar rays in a Lithium internal battery. This rechargeable battery continuously receives a trickle charge from the solar panel and then uses the stored energy to charge your chosen device.
In addition, this stylish backpack also features a mains power plug and USB charging cable so you can boost the power in the battery before leave home. The bag also boasts an integrated headphone port so you can keep your media player dry and three spacious front compartments so you can keep your equipment and accessories.
Power Storage
All Black Hills Solar Backpacks are sold with a custom-built battery pack which stores any surplus power generated; so it is available when you need it - not just when it's daylight. The battery packs can also be charged using the USB cable supplied by connecting to a PC or laptop or, alternatively, via the mains with the plug supplied.
Power Output
The solar panel on the Black Hills Solar Backpack delivers 6V/120mA maximum output. The battery output is 3.7V/800mA. This output is dependant on light and weather conditions. Sunlight will obviously deliver the best performance but the panel used also charges in any type of light, even artificial light. The charge delivered to the internal battery is a continuous trickle charge and the charge delivered to a device from the battery is constant until the device is fully charged or until the battery has used up it's energy storage capacity.
*Results may vary dependant on make, model and age of handset. These figures are based on controlled testing in British summertime. Best results are achieved through direct sunlight, however, if the bag is in continuous daylight the trickle charge will be maintained allowing the majority of the power employed to be constantly replaced.
Please note: The Black Hills Solar Backpack device will not produce enough power to charge a laptop or similar device.
Material and Build
Time to fully charge the internal battery will be approx. 10-14 hours during Sunny conditions.
Time to charge internal battery via mains or USB will be approx. 2 hours.

For best performance we recommend that you charge the internal battery prior to use using the mains or a computer. You can then utilise the backpack's solar panel to trickle charge the battery.
