RAVPower Solar Charger 28W Solar Panel with 3 USB Port Travel Charger – REVIEW and UNBOXING

I bought the RAVPower Solar Charger 28W Solar Panel with 3 USB Port Travel Charger ( https://amzn.to/3hyKIhZ) on Amazon for $49. I was planning to take this solar panel on my camping trip this week. In this video I will unbox and review this portable solar travel charger.
It comes with the 28W solar panel, 2 USB micro cables, and 4 metal hooks.

Why: I needed a portable compact solar travel charger for my road trips and place on my under my windshield when I was parked with the window open. The specifications and function is quite good on this charger 28 Watts with 3 USB ports outputting 2.1A per port. The built in charge controller works well.

The solar panels are very efficient and stores very compact compared to my previous DOKIO 80 Watt folding solar panel kit ( https://amzn.to/2OXphuA ). I typically use my 80 watt during multiple day camping trips to charge my USB devices and my 12 volt car battery by leaving it on top of the car windshield. I also use several solar security lights ( https://amzn.to/3hAE0b3 ) for my house to quickly add security lighting to places with limited power. They have worked well for the past 2 years.

REVIEW: I tested the panel on my porch to charge my power banks. In 4 hours, it topped off half-full my Miady 26800mAh PD Portable Charger Power Bank ( https://amzn.to/2WXHWuL ). The temperature was about 70 degrees worked well with all 3 USB ports at 2.1A. I decided to place the unit on my car dash board to check size and fit. 5 minutes placing it on my dash, 3 USB port charge controller fell off! Apparently the glue or adhesive backing did not stick well to the nylon material.

CONCLUSION: While it still charges, the glue is not durable in heat. The temperature was less than 75 degrees in the car. I will still bring it with me on my trip however i feel who ever designed it did not pick the correct adhesive. I read more reviews on Amazon ( https://amzn.to/3hyKIhZ ) and others experienced similar glue issues. If i had mounted this on my backpack, the charge port would have torn off during the hike. The charging is fine, the build and design missed the mark. I have sent an email to RavPower for a resolution, if not its going to be returned.

REVIEW: LA CROSSE Atomic Wall Clock 12 inch ( WT-3129B ) w/ Extended Battery Slots

Unboxing and review video of our LA CROSSE 12 inch Atomic Wall Clock – WT-3129B ( https://amzn.to/31lqqDK) .There are other digital and analogue atomic clocks on line ( https://amzn.to/2Vqw17R ). We have over 3 La Crosse Atomic Wall clocks and recently got this one for our lower guest room. Atomic clocks are very easy to setup and are completely automatic. It relies on an atomic radio signal generated by NIST. However, depending on the building structure and the ability to received the radio signal you may get errors like how we did. Btw, my Youtube vlogs and reviews may also have associated affiliate links to products that may earn from qualifying purchases.

Our lower guest room atomic clock was always out of sync with the NIST signal due to the building structure. It worked perfectly next to the window, but on the all it received infrequent signal that the time was always off. The clock was working fine in other rooms. To resolve this, we used a regular quartz battery operated wall clock ( https://amzn.to/2YBGmQm )

LA CROSSE 12 inch Atomic Wall Clock ( https://amzn.to/31lqqDK ) was a good clock and for about $20 it was worth it. You just unscrew the thumbscrews in the back, insert a AA 1.5v battery and it automatically set the time for you! We chose La Crosse Technology WT-3129B model as it had two additional battery slots to allow it to be ran for up to 3 years! It took about 5-10 minutes to auto calibrate .

On manual mode, setting the time was really slow as you can only move the clock hands by minutes to manually set the time. Again, due to the in frequent signal strenght of our room, it did not keep the correct time. Again we owned two other atomic clocks for over 2 years now and love them in our other rooms.

At the end it all depends on location of the clock and signal strength.
