A Powerful and Lightweight Solar Option for the Outdoor Enthusiast on the Go

A power source when you need it, whenever you need it 

United States -(Ammoland.com)- Whether you’re on the hunt or camping in the beauty of the great outdoors, having a sustainable & renewable energy source is vital to any enthusiast’s pack.

Measuring in at a mere 0.75” x 0.49” x 0.12” and weighing in at 9.4 Ounces, Olympia’s new SB5500 External Battery with Dual Solar Panels packs quite the punch for such a small package.

Designed for Olympia, the SB5500 features both an integrated USB cable and a micro-USB port for any and all charging necessities. With a rugged exterior guise created with outdoorsmen in mind, the SB5500 is perfect for the Outdoor Enthusiast or Hunter on the go.

The built-in dual solar charger panels allow for an efficient way to charge your small and mid-size electronic devices using the power absorbed from pure rays of sunshine.

Not only can you charge the external battery using the power of the sun, but the integrated USB and micro-USB ports allow for a quick and easy charge using another electronic device such as a PC.

The 5V/1A USB Output is ideal for charging cellphones, while the 5V/2.1A USB Output is more ideal for the larger devices such as a tablet. While testing the SB5500, I’ve discovered that you can charge 3 electronic devices simultaneously, even whilst the product is currently charging itself.

The charge time for a mid-sized phone such as an iPhone 5S ran at around 2 & ½ hours and larger devices such as my very own Samsung Galaxy Note 4 ran at around 3 to 3 & ½ hours to fully charge the device.

Product Features:

• 5500mAh Lithium Polymer Battery
• Powered by the sun
• Integrated Micro-USB cable for a quick and easy charge
• Both an Integrated USB and cable micro-USB port for charging with the use of sunlight
• LED Battery Power Indicator
• 5V/1A USB Output and 5V/2.1A USB Output for charging cell-phones and tablets
• Can charge multiple devices simultaneously (Up to 3)
• Rugged Design for Outdoor and Recreational Activities

Package Includes:

• 1 Olympia SB5500 External Battery with Dual Charger Panels
• 1 Micro-USB Cable
• 1 User Guide
