We have been sourcing a small collapsable solar panel for emergency charging, however, this unit has resolved that challenge.
The Hydracell Cube Lantern can recharge most small rechargeable battery items that utilise a USB port. This includes the more modern:
- iPhones,
- GPS,
- Iridium-Go, even
- VHF Radio.
What we have added, read here...
1. Uses 500ml saltwater,
2. Charges phones 6-8 phone charges, or
3. Provides 50-100 hours of light.
To recharge...simple:
1. Change plates (2nd set supplied),
2. Add new saltwater, and it's ready again.
The shelf life of the HYDRACELL Cube Cell is 900-1,800 hours.
