Need another cord for solar charger

Comments about Brunton Impel Portable Power Device:

I just got this product and I have not used it yet, so I can't rate it.
I did want to say that in order to charge it with the Brunton Explorer foldable solar panel sold by REI, you need to buy a double USB cord, which does not come with the device. REI's product description indicates that it works with the solar charger, which led me to believe that it had the compatible cords.
I will comment further once I have been able to use it.

Incompatible with the Brunton Explorer

Comments about Brunton Impel Portable Power Device:

I just confirmed with Brunton tech support that the Impel battery pack is incompatible with the Explorer foldable solar charger. The Explorer is a 5 volt device; the Impel is a 12 volt device. They recommend using the Solaris 12 or 26 (both are 12 volt chargers) instead. MSRP for those two (according to the Brunton website) are [$] and[$], respectively. I see a new Solaris 12 on eBay for [$]. Perhaps the key question is whether this battery pack holds more energy than the equivalent weight of lithium batteries. If anyone has the time/desire to figure that out, I'd be curious to know the answer. I'm giving this three stars for now and I will update this review if I eventually think it's worthy of a 1 or a 5.
