Charging the Switch 8

There are two ways to charge the Goal Zero Switch 8 Recharger. It can be charged from the sun by connecting a compatible solar panel or it can be charged by being plugged into a USB power source.

Capacity and Use Cases

The Switch 8 has enough juice to recharge an MP3 player or feature phone three times, a smartphone twice, or give a 25 percent boost to a tablet. For users who spend a lot of time outdoors, or for those constantly finding themselves “off the grid,” the Switch 8 is highly useful. For hikers especially, having a theoretically endless supply of power in your rucksack to charge cell phones and other equipment is a comforting thought. The package is also great for emergency situations like extended power outages.
