The Goal Zero Nomad 5 Portable Solar Panel 5W is a compact and light solar panel for charging small devices. The panel is only 18 by 24 centimeters and weighs 360 grams. This means that you can easily take it with you in a backpack. The panel is a bit smaller, so it only produces 5 watts of power. You get an average of 60% of the indicated power with solar panels, so the Nomad 5 is especially suitable for devices with a small battery, like cameras and e-readers. It can take all day to charge a smartphone. Choose the Nomad 10 or 20 if you want to charge faster. The solar panel has a USB-A port to which you connect your own charging cable. You won't need a converter or extra cable. There is a useful, adjustable stand on the back of the Nomad 5. This allows you to place your panel at exactly the right angle to the sun. The solar panel itself is splash water resistant, so it's suitable for the beach, along the river, or in wet grass. Make sure that the USB-A port doesn't get wet.

Doesn't charge nearly as fast as promised. If a tip of panel doesn't catch the sun, it won't charge. It does not charge behind glass.

Charge mobile devices quickly, but unfortunately only when the sun is shining. Do not expect a return in cloudy weather.
