Sci-fi shows and movies sometimes have characters sporting a tiny gadget that can do almost everything and anything. Well, we’re still a few years (we think) from that, but we do have already existing multi-purpose tools that can be a great companion for those who are constantly mobile and outdoors. The Goal Zero Switch 10 Multi-Tool Kit is a gadget charger, flashlight and mini fan, all in one. Plus, it can be charged in a variety of ways, including through solar energy.
If you’re going to be in an area where there are no wall outlets, then you would need extra power sources, and also a way to charge said power sources. Goal Zero can become one of your options, as it also comes with a portable solar panel to give the phone charger energy just by exposing it to the sun. It would only take you 4 hours of “full sun” to be able to charge it through the Nomad 7 solar panel. But if you want a more conventional way of charging it, it will also take you four hours to do so using any USB port.
The Goal Zero can power your mobile devices through its USB port and device specific cables. For smartphones, it can give you 1x charging, while tablets get 25% of its power capacity. POV cameras like the GoPro can be charged 2x. The package also comes with several snap-on extensions that can turn it into a 160 lumens flashlight that can last 8 hours when fully charged and a tiny fan that can give you an 8 hour personal cooling system.
The small, cylindrical device weighs just 4 oz (113 grams) and has a capacity of 3000mAh. You can buy it through their website at just $119.95, and that already includes micro-tip adapter, the flashlight tip and fan tip, as well as the Nomad 7 Solar Panel.
