Overview
The Hiluckey 26,800 mAh Solar Charger is a high-capacity power bank designed for outdoor use, combining a large battery with solar trickle-charging, wireless output, and ruggedised features. It's pitched at hikers, travellers, emergency kits, or anyone who wants extended off-grid battery reserve. The idea is that even if you’re away from mains power, you have enough stored capacity to charge multiple devices, plus a solar panel to partially recharge when in sunlight.
Strengths
High Capacity With ~ 26,800 mAh, this bank can charge phones many times over (depending on phone battery size), or provide a top-up to tablets / smaller devices. Good for multi-day trips or when you can’t recharge often.
Wireless Charging The wireless (Qi) output is a useful feature for phones that support wireless charging. It removes the need for cables for charging via wireless-capable devices, which is more convenient in some contexts.
Multiple Ports / Simultaneous Charging It supports multiple output modes: USB-A, USB-C, wireless, allowing you to charge several devices at once. This helps when you have a phone + earbuds + watch etc.
Outdoor-Friendly Build The unit is designed to be water- and dust-resistant, shock-resistant, and includes features useful for outdoor situations: e.g. a strong casing, LED flashlight (including SOS mode), and protective covers for ports.
Solar Panel for Emergencies / Topping Up The solar panel doesn’t replace mains supply but can provide trickle charge in good sunlight, which can be lifesaving in emergencies or when travelling with limited access to power sources.
Weaknesses
Slow Solar Charging The solar input is weak relative to the large battery capacity. It can take many hours (or many days of good sunlight) just to partially recharge via solar alone. So solar is more “just in case” rather than a reliable primary charging method.
Bulk & Weight Because of its large battery and ruggedised case, it's heavier and bigger than smaller capacity banks. That makes it less ideal for ultralight backpacking where every gram counts. Carrying it adds to pack weight.
Long Mains Charging Time It takes a long time via USB/AC to fully charge the power bank itself. Even with USB-C fast charging, recharging a 26,800 mAh bank takes several hours.
Efficiency Losses Wireless charging is always less efficient than wired. There will be energy losses, heat, slower charging speeds vs direct cable. Also, under partial sunlight, the solar panel may produce very little output.
Durability of Extras Some users report issues with the rubber covers (port covers), or LED indicators not being super reliable or visible under bright light. Accessories like the flashlight may not be as durable under heavy abuse.
