OTS Solar Power Bank

Charging capacity

The most important factor for me is charging capacity. Before I add something to my backpack I want to know exactly how much extra battery life it’s going to give me.

Weight & size

This is going to be an essential factor for minimalist packers. You don’t want to be carrying around something huge that will take up space for other things from your bag.

Additional features

Who doesn’t love additional features? While the main characteristic for a power bank is obviously the need for it to charge things, if it comes with some useful extras, that’s always a brownie points in its favour.

Additional features: The OTS Solar Power Bank is waterproof, dustproof and shock resistant. It’s built to be used outdoors, so that if you get caught in a rainstorm while hiking or drop it at the beach, it shouldn’t be affected.

It also has a LED flashlight with three different light modes that can be used if you’re camping overnight. Overall the OTS Solar Power Bank meets all of my solar power banks criteria.
