You will find a discount code in my initial post for 10% off, which gets you down to $78. I'm not sure where you got #71 from...

I havent, I just ordered mine yesterday.
I have however done a fair amount of research on them. They seem to be a solid product. Theres lots of reviews on YouTube.
I plan to use the unit to charge cell phones from AAs in day to day use. For camping, power failures ect it will charge AAAs for headlamps, and AAs for lights, radios and countless other gadgets that make things easy. The guide 10 usually comes with a 3.5 watt panel, and costs $30-$40 more. This will charge more, faster.

Thanks abinok. I'm anxious to hear what you think. I'd like to buy a good sturdy solar charger and a dozen or so Eneloop batteries each in several sizes.

The only think I worry about with these units is the battery charger melting. It has bee reported to do that a lot. However, I do like the idea and have been looking at them for a long time. Please report back what you think of the unit.

I've read about the overheating issues as well. It seems those units were an earlier generation. Goal zero has been replacing the troublesome 1st gen units with the new ones free of charge. I've yet to run across anybody with a bad customer service experence.

I think the offer expires the 30th so keep that in mind...
