Now that the hurricane season is upon us, and with all the other disasters that Mother Nature seems to put upon us, you’re probably concerned as to how to keep your handheld devices charged and operating when electrical power is lost. Well the YELOMIN 2000ma Solar Power Bank may be the practical solution.
The YELOMIN 2000ma is a 25000mAh high capacity Lithium battery, solar, or USB charged, power source that can be recharged by solar energy, or a conventional AC power USB charger not included, USB charging cable is included. It should be noted that charging time in the solar mode can take several days for a full charge. Charging in the USB mode is about ten hours for a full charge. So, only charge in the solar mode when all power is lost, and keep it topped off when possible. I keep it in the original box and write the date of the last charge on it. The YELOMIN 2000ma has the ability to link up to your devices via common USB cables, not included. It includes two led lights that provide normal flashlight capabilities. It can also be programmed for a steady-slow, or rapid, SOS strobe modes. Five led pilot indicators show the status of the charging effect. The first of these five lights is a mode indicator; a green light when charging by solar and a blue one when charging via a conventional USB wall charger. Two built-in double 5V/2.1A USB outputs allow two devices such as cellphones and iPads to simultaneously be charged. The power bank is waterproof, shockproof and dustproof, and includes a compass making it useful for camping and hiking in addition to being the perfect power source in almost any emergency. The YELOMIN 2000ma is truly a “must have” device to keep your electronics charged in any emergency situation!
