Goal Zero Nomad 10 Solar Panel

The Goal Zero Nomad 10 is a compact, foldable 10W solar panel with an integrated USB-A output for charging phones, power banks, headlamps, and other small USB devices. Its adjustable kickstand helps position the panel toward the sun, while the folding design makes it easy to carry in a backpack, vehicle, or emergency kit.

The panel is suited for camping, hiking, travel, field work, and basic backup charging when wall power is unavailable. It can charge a device directly in good sunlight or recharge a portable power bank for more consistent power storage and later use.

Portable USB Solar Charging

The Nomad 10 converts sunlight into USB power for small electronic devices. Its USB-A port provides up to 7.5W of output, making it suitable for phones, compact power banks, GPS devices, fitness trackers, headlamps, and small rechargeable lights.

Foldable Travel Design

The two-panel design folds to approximately half its open size for easier storage and transportation. At just over one pound, it can be carried in outdoor gear, stored in a vehicle, or added to an emergency power kit without taking up much space.

Adjustable Kickstand

A built-in kickstand clicks into multiple positions to help angle the solar cells toward the sun. The panel may also be laid flat or attached to suitable equipment using its integrated mounting points, depending on the installation.

Direct Charging or Power-Bank Use

Small devices can be plugged directly into the USB port, but charging performance will vary as clouds, shade, temperature, and panel angle change. Pairing the panel with a portable power bank can provide more consistent charging by storing available solar energy before it is delivered to the connected device. Goal Zero Flip power banks fit into the integrated Flip charging dock.

Outdoor Construction

Goal Zero describes the Nomad 10 as weatherproof rather than fully waterproof. Its laminated construction can handle incidental exposure to rain and snow, but the USB port and connected electronics should be protected from moisture.
