Most helpful customer reviews 20 of 23 people found the following review helpful. Great Idea. Bad price By J. G. Runner You can buy these items separately for much less. 90 Watt Solar Panel $285 Duracell 852-1807 1,800 Watt Five Outlet Rechargeable Power Source $599 Controller $20 Cable $20 Enclosure w/wheels $100 Total $1024. Now it may be worth it to you to have them give it to you all at once and do the integration but you can do it cheaper yourself. The idea is a great idea and I have no reason to believe they don't make a quality product. It is just pricey. 17 of 20 people found the following review helpful. Works well for me. By EEPS I have had this product for almost 6 months now and use it daily. It takes about 8 hours to fully charge in good sunlight and about 12 hours in poor sunlight. It has proved extremely useful to use. Good Luck. 8 of 9 people found the following review helpful. Solar generator By Karen Fronterhouse I bought this generator about 4 months ago. It was packaged well, took a little while to get here but was within reason. The responses to my e-mails were good. I do not know how to build a system myself so this was my best bet for the money at the time. Since I bought it, I have discovered that Home Depot now sells one for $400.00 less that you can add units on too as needed. This one you cannot add more power packs to it, according to the instructions. I followed the instructions and plugged it in to the wall for 3 days ( it was fully charged in less than one day)than ran it dry using a small fan and a table lamp with a 12 watt flourescent bulb in it. I ran the fan for two nights constant and the light just at night for about 4 hours each night. Just those two things ran it dry on power and it had to be recharged. When you plug it in the wall to charge it takes about 6 to 8 hours to fully charge. I did this 3 times like the instructions said, to condition the battery. I have not yet plugged it in to charge using the solar panel. I plan on using other items and marking down the drain time on them so I know what I can run and for how long should the need arise. We just had storms last week and were without power for almost five hours. We had a lamp and a fan going and felt rich. All our neighbors had were candles and flashlights. HMMMMM. So far so good. I like it. PS, I plugged a big box fan in to it on low speed and the fan started making noise. Went back to my 8" fan and all was fine. Even ran it on high speed. See all 4 customer reviews...

This is a very simple plug n play solar generator. It comes with a brand new duracell powerpack 600 and a brand new solar panel that simple plugs into the batterypack. This makes it easy to use anywhere for anything. The solar panel has 9ft of wire so you can put the panel in the sun and the battery were you need it. Works great for remote areas without grid power, emergencies, or camping. This kit does not need a seperate charge controller because the battery automatically turns to trickle charge when the batteries are full. No orders to Alaska or Hawaii

Useful, But Does Not Perform Up To Specifications By Scott If the Xantrex Xpower Powerpack Solar lived up to its specifications, I would rate it 5 stars and consider it well worth the money. That's why I bought it in the first place. Unfortunately, its performance falls short of the manufacturer's claims. The overall design of the product is very nice. I had considered building something similar based on a how-to article in Popular Science, but the Powerpack is so nicely packaged for only a couple dollars more, I chose to buy it. The Powerpack disappoints in the amount of energy stored in its battery that is available to power other electronic devices. The battery is specified as 12 volts and 10 amp-hours. As such, I was expecting to get as much as 120 watt-hours from it, but I barely get half that. As a test, I fully charged the battery using the included AC adapter. By "fully", I mean the unit claimed to be charged. I then ran the built-in LED lights. The manual claims they should run for 48 hours. They ran 27.5 hours for me. I assumed this performance reflected a bad unit and exchanged it. The new unit performs similarly. Either the battery in the unit performs poorly, or the electronics to monitor and control the battery state-of-charge are weak. As another example of the poor performance, I charged the unit completely (again based on its built-in indicator that charging is done). It indicated 100 percent charge when I turned on the AC or DC output, but as soon as I plugged in any load, it almost immediately dropped to 70 or even 60 percent. Soon after the unit's indicator dropped to 40 percent, the unit shut itself down. So, on the one hand, this is a nice unit to carry around, and it does slowly-but-surely charge the internal battery using the included 5 watt solar panel. It does a fine job charging cell phones and iPods, and a barely acceptable job charging a notebook computer. Compared to its specifications, and for that matter my previous experience with the Xantrex Powerpack Mobile Mini, however, the product is a disappointment. 187 of 189 people found the following review helpful. Looks better than it works By J. Gabrielli The product information should include these crucial tidbids, which you only find out AFTER buying (by reading the detailed owner's manual): 1) you cannot use it while you are charging it, and 2)if you want to charge it using the sun, it takes 45 HOURS (YES -- that's HOURS). I used it at an outdoor festival to power a laptop, and -- even thought the manual estimated it would last for up to 4 hours, it pooped out after 1.5 hours. After that, I unplugged and charged it in the sun for a while. It got a lot of interest from people at the festival, who thought it was cool. I think it's cool too. I just wish it worked better. 52 of 52 people found the following review helpful. Design nightmare By Snorkboy Many Cons - Battery not "user replaceable" (User manual recommends throwing the whole powerpack out when the battery can no longer take a charge) - If you do take the unit apart to replace the battery, it is an uncommon type not available at battery specialists. - Solar panel is too small to adequately charge the unit. Useful only as a top-up charger. - My unit has locked up twice, where the buttons and display do not work and you need to take it apart to disconnect then reconnect the battery to reboot the internal microcontroller. - Very difficult to take apart (to reboot the unit or change the battery). - AC power adapter puts out too much voltage, causing the unit to complain about an overvoltage situation when it is left plugged in when fully charged. - Loses its charge quickly when not plugged in. - LED lights on both sides of the unit are wired to come on at the same time. No switch to disconnect one bank to double the runtime as a light source. As a warning, if you do have one, do not leave it off its charger
