I especially like the Bolt Focus Light. 160 lumens, wise angle to spot, and able to recharge from my portable solar panel.

I've seen them at Costco and Sportsman's Warehouse.

I bought the power pack and "suitcase" solar panel back when it was Gobe Solar (and cost a lot less).

Your opinion on the product, please.

It's good for charging smaller devices, but nothing larger than a laptop. I think, were I to need it as a primary source of power, I'd use it as a battery charger, rather than as the battery itself. The yellow "not fully charged" light is very vague. Could mean 20% charged or 90% charged. The 6-10 hours of sunlight to charge it runs closer to 10 hours than 6. It's well built, lightweight and very portable. I like it.
