Goal Zero Torch 500 Rechargeable Flashlight

I already have a couple of these solar flashlights and when they went on 50% off sale, I didn't hesitate to buy another one. Bright flashlight and lantern. It charges from the sun or USB. High quality products.

I have it exactly a year now and it was on the windowsill to charge the battery . It doesn't charge anymore

太陽光充電本当に出来ます。品質も良く買って正解でした。

It is a three way flashlight and a three way florescent light. Charges from the sun or the wall. Great value.

I like the new design of the Goal Zero Torch 500. I have 3 very old Goal Zero Torch 250 and they wearing out but have done good service over 7 years. I just bought two (2) new Torch 250 a few days ago. So, I charged both up by USB, (the 500 came with no power, the 250 (both brand new) was 3/4 lights charged up. We'll see if the 500 holds a charge. I ran them side by side and the Torch 500 died (got warm) 3.5 hours on Flood light, exactly as promised. PASS.Testing the New vs 7 year old 250 next. I really LIKE the new design.. smaller, heavy but nice solar, nice "warm" temperature lighting and 3 levels. Buttons could be a bit bigger though.Says "waterproof" but I would not want water to get into the Charging Port. I do own a few shares of stock in the NRG stock.. (they own Goal Zero) so I like the company. Products NOT CHEAP but they are far better than the cheap $22 Mini-Solar lights (i have 10 of them, 7 died (battery, wiring, misc) after 1 year. These do last a long time and use them camping/car repair/when cooking in my back yard at night. Worth the extra price. Sunnyvale, CA. Oct 2020.
