About This Project

The ECORiSE 28W Folding Solar Panel is a lightweight, rugged charger built for outdoor enthusiasts and emergency preparedness. Featuring USB‑C, USB‑A and QC3.0 ports, IP65 water‑resistance, and high‑efficiency monocrystalline cells, it folds to a pocket‑size panel weighing under 800 g. Ideal for backpacking, van life, photography, and emergency kits, it keeps phones, cameras, GPS units and power banks charged wherever sunlight is available. Designed with Japanese quality, simplicity and practicality, the panel reflects the founder’s passion for surf, travel and reliable off‑grid power.
