Why we recommend it

Most portable panels do one job: feed a power station. This FlexSolar adds USB-C Power Delivery and QC3.0 sockets, which turns it into a standalone charger for phones, tablets and many laptops. That changes what you can pack. For a weekend where the only things needing power are devices, you can leave the battery at home entirely. At 1.85 kg it's also the lightest unit in this list by a clear margin.

Buying advice

Buy this if your power needs are phones and a laptop rather than a fridge. Test the USB-C output with your specific laptop before a trip, since PD wattage varies by device and not every machine accepts solar-fed charging cleanly.

Frequently asked questions

Can it charge a laptop directly?
Many USB-C laptops, yes, through the PD port. Higher-draw machines will charge slowly or only while asleep.
Does it still work with a power station?
Yes, it has a DC output as well as the USB sockets.
What happens when a cloud passes?
Direct USB charging can drop out and restart. A power station in between smooths this out, which is the main argument for using one.
