How did we get our start?
We discovered that many families still suffer from energy problems. People have to choose the bulky and environmentally unfriendly generator.
What makes our products unique?
In 2020, the first portable LifePO4 power station Cellpowa 500 developed by our company was finally came out. After three years of continuous improvement and repeated testing, Cellpowa 500 is not only able to meet the energy needs of daily life, in addition it has passed the PSE and FCC technical certification and several safety performance tests.
What problem are we solving?
Looking for a way to store enough green and clean energy in a portable generator that customer can take anywhere.

If cloud or shade passes, does solar charger automatically recover or does it stop charging?
Yes, this 28w solar panel charger can automatically recover to charge your phone
What does the red LED light mean?
The red LED light will go on when the solar panels works normally; It will flicker when there are over-current or short circuit.
This solar charger can charge Androids and Apple cellphones and power station?
BigBlue 28w solar panel charger can charge most Androids and Apple cellphones, but our solar phone charger doesn't include the lightning cable for iPhone or iPad. This product comes with 2 5V USB-A output, so it can't charge power station.
Why the real output is different from the power claimed?
This product has 4 piece panel, each is 7w, so the power is 4*7w=28W; Theoretical output is 5V/2.4A Max for each port, 5V/4.0A Max in total, the total theoretical power is 5V*4.A=20W Max. But there are loss in the solar energy conversion process.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The main con is that if one of the panels is in the shade, the charging is closed to zero. The second one is that the pocket for the device is not insulated and, well, it’s black. So if you put your smartphone there, it will be overheated within a few minutes and will stop charging. At first I think it didn’t work properly though, so here a few tips that I’ve figured:
1. All the panels must be exposed to the sunlight. Even a small shade on the panels affects efficacy dramatically.
2. It’s better to use with powerbanks rather than charge your phones/tablets/whatever directly.
3. Whichever device you are charging, keep it off the sun. The pocket on the solar panel itself doesn’t work at all, and if your device has any overheat protection, it will stop charging pretty soon. If it doesn’t have a protection, it can just explode if the sun brights really hot. I was putting the solar panel on a camping chair with insulated pocket for a cold drinks and putting my power banks in the pocket. Works pretty well.
4. If the sunlight is good, there is no need to try to sustain the good angle (the closer sun rays fall to 90 degrees, the more power the panel will generate). But if it’s not very sunny, try to put something under the panel to keep it directed towards the sun.
With that, I think it’s a pretty good solar panel, if you know the above and understand how to use it.
Be safe outdoors!
The main reason I wanted this product was to charge devices while staying at a mountaintop cabin which turned out to be a foggy and overcast weekend. Before heading there I tested it in the field on a couple of small islands and at home on a day when there was full direct sun with no clouds. On the islands there were some clouds and I only hooked it to some power banks I use while traveling. The charger is very easy to stow. I slipped it into a 2 1/2 gallon zipper bag, which could hold two of them or one and my large tablet, and folded it over as protection against water while heading there. It was easy to rig. Just propping it up on driftwood is easy but the carabiners that came with it don't seem especially useful. I carry some short loops of bungee cord that are handier for hanging it up. I don't intend to lash it to my backpack as I know some hikers do. Where I hike there are generally trees overhead and inconvenient sun angles. I've tested it in overcast conditions and it still puts out a few tenths of an amp without real direct sunlight.
The ammeter is very handy and eliminates the mystery of whether something is really charging and how fast if it is. I notice that in full sun the amps being delivered is highly dependent on the device(s) connected. Some of the older power banks I have don't seem to accept more than half an amp at a time no matter the level of sunlight so even with two depleted banks connected the current only goes to 1.0 or so. With a different pair of packs it goes to 2.0. While testing the charger in full midday sun for the first time I hooked up a large tablet that was down to 28% and with one of those banks the current went to 2.4, with a different one 2.8, and it charged in less than two hours along with the power bank. This was using a short charging cable with the tablet in the shade. Don't leave your devices in the direct sun. I'd generally recommend not using the zipper pouch in most cases too. It gets very hot inside but in some situations you could hang the panel by the little loop in the fold between the pouch and panels and have the pouch facing away from the sun.
The red LED display is a bit hard to read in sunlight. Maybe green LEDs or an e-paper display would be more readable. That's literally my only gripe with the thing. A bluetooth device with an app that graphs the charging curve and pops up a notification when something is done charging would be nice too but I think I ask for too much. Overall this is well worth the price and a five star review. I intend to use it for years to come.
The 2nd time I used it it Just Barley would work under full sun Then The 3rd Time I went to use it wouldn't work at all even in full sun all day, Email to report problems doesn't work at all just like the solar panel, Junk, Don't Buy Anything From Them unless u are looking to get ripped off,
