" ... Foxelli's Solar Charger Panels are very lightweight and that is important to anyone who is backpacking. ... They come with (2) carabiners to attach the solar charger panel to your pack or hang from something if needed. ... Another nice and well thought-out feature is the inclusion of a zippered pocket panel where you can easily place a phone while charging it. ... The cool part is that you can flip this zippered pocket panel over to the back side of the main charging panels and shade it from direct exposure to the sun's heat. ... "
