Q: Is this unit waterproof like the other PowerFilm rollable chargers?
A: No, but a little water on the LightSaver is not a problem, but allowing significant water inside the unit may corrode the components. Saltwater is particularly corrosive and should be kept out of the device.
Q: What is the LightSaver best used for?
A: This is great for charging mobile phones. The output is 5 volts / 1 amp, which is sufficient for the majority of cell phones. Because it only weighs 4.9 ounces, it is perfect for backpacking, bicycling, or to carry with as emergency power.
Q: Can I power a laptop with the LightSaver?
A: No, but you can charge / power smaller USB devices, such as Kindle e-readers or small USB rechargeable tablets. If you need to power laptops, larger tablets, or other larger than mobile phone electronic, we recommend the
LightSaver Max (LSM-1).
