Freeloader Solar

Price: £29.99 Charging Tips: 11

Overall Auto Express rating

4.0

Initially, the Solar felt cheap and plasticky, but this is all down to its feather-light weight. It was easy to assemble – we liked the clips to attach the solar panels – and folded into a small package. A raft of tips and attractive design impressed, but there’s no mains charging and it’s pricier than our Ring Best Buy.
