I used this solar charger on an 8 day camping trip and loved it! I was able to keep my smartphone, GoPro and EastAcc 2600 battery pack charged with this solar charger. I am pleasantly surprised by the performance and toughness of this solar charger!

I've used a couple of battery packs, and so far this one is my favorite. I purchased this because I needed more juice for Pokemon Go and I wanted a known brand.

Pros:
  - Nice packaging!
  - Perfect size for carrying in one's pocket or a backpack pouch. It also has a nice heft and solid feel.
  - Quality construction of USB ports. This is huge, but the strong grip and tight "click" of both the USB A and especially the Micro B connector is a great sign. My last pack was killed by a short in the A port that overvolted the Lithium cell.
  - Included accessories. I use a reversible braided USB cable, but the Anker cable is well made and of decent length. I also am glad they included a polyester mesh carrying pouch that lets you still see the indicator lights. I keep it on basically all the time.

Cons:
  - I keep the pouch on at all times because the pack is encased in GLOSSY BLACK PLASTIC! Why do manufacturers keep doing this? It makes the product look cheap, and especially for a product designed to be carried around, any inevitable scratches and dings stick out much worse than if this was matte or even textured plastic.&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/I-also-know-Anker-makes-a-smaller-tube-that-is-encased-in-machined-aluminum/dp/B005X1Y7I2/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">I also know Anker makes a smaller tube that is encased in machined aluminum</a>. That would be a nice look here.

  - This is more a flaw that occurs because of thermodynamics, but the iQ port will make the pack warm up when charging rapidly. Its unfortunate and can only be mitigated so much, but 'caveat emptor'...

Still, the device works great and the cons are superfluous. This is a five-star product and should serve you well.

I have to say i am thrilled with this little KICK BUTT bag!  I have tried several solar chargers, several power supplies several power banks and even the AMPY kinetic charger at ($990.  NOTHING compares to this solar panel and battery combo.  From Dead to fully charged for my iphone 5 the batter outputs 1/4 of the full charge.  I will be able to charge my phone completely 3/4 times per charge.  AMAZING.  The solar panel is light and flexible and can clip onto any bag.  We are section hiking the Appalachian trail and having a power source for the phone is a necessary evil.  I feel very confident with this new tool in out pack.

The bag is very well constructed, nice durable  material superb buckles hip strap and straps.
THE ONLY THING i can see reading other reviews is the USB on the battery is getting damaged  I can see that if you have the chord attached and force the battery plus chord into the zippered pouch on the back of the solar panel the pressure will eventually damage that connection.  the Zippered pouch could be about 1 inch longer to accommodate this but I can just live the pouch slightly unzipped to not damage the chord.

I bought this at the same time as the EasyAcc 12AH battery pack.  I fully charged the battery pack before a week-long camp, and used this solar panel to keep the battery pack topped off when away from camp, and while charging my phone to reduce the draw on the battery pack.  The battery pack never got below half charge for the week.  I didn't push the weather limits, as I kept the solar panel in the tent on rainy days.  On brighter rainy days however it still showed it was providing a charge, even inside the tent. I am guessing this helped, but it is hard to guess how much, as the pack should have had enough juice to charge my phone at least 4 times in its own.  Unfortunately I haven't had too many other opportunities to use the solar panel to really test it further.  (I need to get out more on longer trips, I know!)  I do worry a little bit about opening and closing it repeatedly if the connection inside would hold up, but I don't know why anyone would do that.  The pocket is nice to hold a short cable, few connectors, etc.  I attached some paracord to the corners to make it easier to hang or secure.

I work away from electricity and I sometimes go more than 24 hours without a place to plug my phone in. I knew I needed a battery charger and my friend had a similar charger to this one. I ordered this one hoping that the size of the battery would be able to charge my phone more than once without having to be recharged itself. I also was hoping that This one would be really durable with its aluminum body.

I was not disappointed. I have had this charger for a few months now and I am happy to say it has saved me on multiple occasions. It will easily charge my iPhone SE at least 4 times from 0% to a full charge. I think I have only had to charge the portable charger 3 times in the past two months and I usually use it on a daily basis in order to hold me over until I can get to a wall charger. I have also dropped it a few times and it bounces around my bags and car when I travel.

I would highly recommend this product for the outdoorsman or for the backpacker in your life. It will have you in a pinch.

I own many battery packs and this Poweradd Pilot is one of my favorite First, this is a must have for anyone that has a cell phone, Bluetooth, ipad, camera, gopro, anything that charges via USB. Why do you ask? Because how many times have you been out and about at a bar, party, work, theme park, beach, or any other location where you may not have the ability to plug your phone in? With a 8200mAh battery capacity, that means you are able to realistically charge your phone a solid (2) times from 0-100%. I used my Iphone 6s Plus when testing this. I was able to get 2 and then some out of a full charge from this battery, which overall is great! It is about  inches thick and about the size of a dollar bill. It has easy to read LEDs on the front to show you how much battery is remaining. You will see on the front a Micro USB (located in the middle), which is used to charge the battery pack. The USB end is your attachment end which will lead to whatever device you are charging. Overall I could not be more pleased with the quality and performance of this battery pack!

Fantastic power pack - durable - used at the beach and fully charged my new iPhone 6S plus 4x on one charge!!!!

Well built with super-heavy-duty cables and tight fitting Micro USB connector. And it provides ample power to quickly charge my hungriest devices. Having identical dual connectors coming from a single transformer is a little weird, but it's certainly not a bad thing.

I received the PowerPak+ around 2 days ago and was pleasantly surprised when it came fully charged out of the box. It's not as bulky or heavy as I expected, and I just LOVE the ridged texture--the device feels as sturdy as a bunker. So far, I've used it to charge both my iPad mini & Droid 4 smartphone from 0 to 100%, and it's still not drained yet. I guess 13,500 mAh is really a significant upgrade from New Trent's baby iTorch and Travelpak series.

All in all, I would highly recommend this product to anyone who's incredibly busy and on the go; you'll probably only have to recharge this baby once per week to keep it up and running, and that's a relief for people who are short on time. One charge cycle does take a whopping 12 hours though, so you might wanna charge it before it's *totally* drained.

5/5 stars. Would buy another one, but I only own 2 devices, so this is ample power for me.

Excellent tool for having that charge when I need it for my iPhone 6 Plus, and my iPad Mini. 2600 mAH gives me the confidence that I can make it through an extra long day when it happens, as it does a lot.. Highly recommended for simplicity of setup and use.. The size makes it a tool you can have in use all day, keeping you fully charged.....

The BC-2000 is an excellent battery charger for a great price!  After evaluating this charger for the last two months I have found that it outperforms my smart charger from La Crosse, which was my go to charger, and any other battery charger I have ever owned for that matter.  I was able to quickly gauge the health of my batteries, easily refresh some older rechargeable batteries, and thanks to the backlit display I was able to easily see the progress of the charge cycle.

One feature of this charger that I found useful was the ability to also charge C and D cell batteries with the battery adapter.  The BC-2000 handled the higher mA requirements of the larger battery with no issues at all.  I was able to refresh the larger cells which I had not been able to do with my older charger.  I also discovered that my older charger was never filling the battery to capacity.  Since battery capacity has increased greatly over the last five to ten years you will find that older smart chargers will stop charging because the circuity thinks the battery is at capacity or has been over charged with the mA reading or the Delta V reading the battery returns to the unit.  Or the built in timer has gone past the allowable charge time and will turn off the charger even when the battery's Delta V reading is showing that the battery has not gotten a full charge.  The BC-2000 does not suffer from those issues.  The charger does have a temperature sensor to detect if the battery has gotten to warm and will discontinue charging if it detects that.  And it also has the feature that detects the Delta V for each charging bay and will stop charging when each cell is fully charged.

I tested the charger with AA, AAA, C and D cell batteries.  I found that it did an excellent job on the smaller cells.  And I was able to get a lot more use out of my larger cells.  For instance my wife and I have a shower radio that uses two 2500 mAh D cell batteries.  With our older charger we could get roughly three weeks of use out of the batteries before we had to recharge them.  I charged a pair with the BC-2000 and so far we have been able to use the radio for a little over a month and have not had to recharge the batteries as of yet.

I have multiple sets of six AA 2000 mAh batteries for some handheld transceivers I use on a daily basis.  I found that having more mA options for the charger also allowed me to charge them a little quicker than I could with my La Crosse smart charger.  To preserve the batteries I charge them at a lower mAh rate to preserve battery life.  Heat will bring to an early end any rechargeable battery and the higher the mAh rate you charge the battery the hotter it will get.  The lowest option on the La Crosse charger was 200 mA and the next highest was 500 mAh. On the BC-2000 I could select 400 mAh.  That is still a small enough power setting that would allow maximum life out of the battery without prematurely killing them with excessive heat.
If you are looking for an affordable smart charger this is the battery charger for you.  It is now the primary battery charger in our home.

Overview:
This is a 17000 mAh portable power / battery charger.  I am extremely happy with this.  This is currently $19 on Amazon.  I gave this a 5 starts because it has a ton of charging capacity.

Functionality:
It does what it says and I don't have any issues with the functionality.  It is simple enough to be a portable power pack.

Quality:
The ports fit snug. My phones charge fast in the 2A port and normal in the 1A port.

Improvements:
I have known.  While I think the LED light is something that seems to be added to these portable power packs, I don't quite understand the point except that its there just in case.  Its really not a powerful LED so if you have flashlight or your phone plugged in, I would use that.  Then again, I didn't buy it for the LED so this isn't really an improvement request.

Tons of power!  Charging the battery pack is so much faster than any of my previous USB battery packs.  Quick charge 3.0 charges my Samsung Galaxy S7 just as quick as my Quick Charge 3.0 wall chargers!

This Baby is powerful enough to charge my SONY AX-33 Video Camera! It Charges my iPhone faster then the Apple wall charger!

It's taken me a while (a long while) but I've finally found an external battery pack that actually charges to full capacity in a reasonable amount of time.

Most other external batteries do NOT charge fully, and their charging indicators flash for hours at a time. The EasyAcc battery here arrived full, and after discharging it across my devices (simultaneously charging a OnePlus One, Nexus 7 2nd Gen and Fire Phone!) it charged up in a few hours to full capacity again. Not bad at all.

The batteries in this are flat pack li-ions, a higher quality than stuffing in several 18650 cells into an enclosure with a board and calling it a day, this is an actual quality external battery pack.

There is only one button to press, which shows the charge on a very small set of LED lights. Apart from that, the entire thing is just smooth plastic (which scuffs easily, mind you, and I doubt if it has ANY IPX rating) which is sleek new, but has gathered quite a bit of minor scuffing from going in and out of my backpack and one overnight trip so far. This will replace my Sentey 20800mah battery, as it is lighter by about 30% and has a smaller footprint, with a still-respectable battery capacity, which will easily last a weekend of hiking. I have added two silicon wrist-bands to keep it elevated off surfaces and prevent further scuffing.

I received this device at a discounted price in exchange for an unbiased review.

This charger is beyond excellent.  One of the best built battery packs I have seen.  Well constructed.  Heavy but not too heavy. Perfect size for the cargo pocket in my shorts and the ports spaced apart on one side makes it very easy access to charge either one or two devices simultaneously.  The charge port on this battery charger is micro USB which is the same as you will find on most android and many other cell phones, tablets, hard drives, personal game machines, and other devices.  The battery pack comes with one small USB cable with standard USB ON one side and micro USB port on the other.  Used in one direction, you can charge the battery pack at night and simply flip the cable the other direction if you want to use the battery to charge your USB device.  This battery pack can simultaneously charge two devices and one of those could be a larger device such as a tablet. However, as there is only one USB cable included, you will need your own  extra cable if you want to charge a second device at the same time.  With 10,400 mAh power, there is plenty to recharge my phone several times during the day on the go.  It is nice to be able to come home at the end of the day and my phone and tablet are still at 100% power despite full use all day long.  The textured surface is also a very nice touch as well.
