Personally, I have several Goal Zero products but, I find them to be to expensive in relationship to other power packs/solar panels of the same quality.
I’d be interested in a recommendation of a similar product and capacity from another vendor. I’ve looked around and not seeing anything I like.
Also just to mention the Amazon.com link doesn’t link to a pre-order – it’s just a general list of Goal Zero products.
