A Mini Lantern and Device Charger!

RavPower Element

RAVPower has another really neat gadget for hiking or your emergency kit – the RAVPower Element! Recently we checked out the RAVPower Luster, and we were so impressed that we decided to check out another RAVPower product.

The Element is a palm size lantern and battery charger, with a very strong battery. Collapsed, it works as a flashlight. When extended, it is a little lantern that can be kept inside your tent. It even comes with a tiny carabiner to hook it inside your tent or on the outside of a backpack.

The RAVPower Element is compatible with any device – you just need to swap in the USB charging attachment that came with your smartphone, camera, or GPS device.

To recharge the device, you simply plug it in to a wall outlet using a USB adaptor (most cellphones are sold with these, so you probably have one at home), or else you can plug it in to your computer’s USB slot.

Using a wall outlet, it charges quickly, and once fully charged it can be used as a lantern for 72 hours, or else be used to charge your smartphone or other devices.

Talk about a great little device to put into your emergency kit and take with you hiking!

Plus, it is extremely affordable!

Bottom line: Hiking Lady loves the RAVPower Element just as much as the RAVPower Luster!
