Review: Endless Sun Solar Apollo 6 Mobility Package

 

While many people love the idea of getting “off the grid,” the thought of going for a long period of time without cell service or any sort of power might not be for everyone. After all, you might want to power up your GoPro camera so you can capture all the cool moments of your hiking trip, keep your phone charged in case of an emergency while camping or fuel your tablet for watching movies during downtime.

A great product for staying connected anywhere is the Endless Sun Solar Apollo 6 Mobility Package, which provides everything you need to get started with portable solar charging. Whether you’re trekking, exploring the back country or even just at home sitting out a power outage, the Apollo 6 Mobility Package can provide the juice you need for your smartphone, GoPro, tablet, AA batteries and other electronics.

The package includes a USB solar charger and a 3,000 mAh Spectrum 10 USB Powerpack, which combined can keep almost any device powered up. What makes this package so great is how lightweight both items are. The USB solar charger is flexible and can easily be folded and stored in your pack, while the Powerpack is small enough to fit in your pocket. Together they weigh just 8.8 ounces. Which is key for me, I want to travel as light weight as possible, and this is not only easy to pack but keeps weight at a minimum.

So how does it all work? The Apollo 6 uses CIGS solar cells, which were built using NASA and military technologies. These cells function in all types of weather conditions, which means you can still get a full charge even on cloudy or overcast days.  You can charge the 10 Watt Powerpack during the day, then use its built-in USB port to charge up to 2 devices after sundown. The pack even has an LED flashlight that can function for 24+ hours straight off a full charge, a must in case of emergency.

For those who love to stay connected even when they’re off the beaten path, the Endless Sun Solar Apollo 6 Mobility Package is the ideal choice for staying powered up without being weighed down.
