Why does nobody talk about those solar powered phone chargers for backpacks?
I dropped $60 on one of those solar panel chargers that clips onto your backpack last summer. Figured it'd be perfect for hiking trips where my phone always dies. After 3 tries and 5 hours of direct sun at the park, my phone only got 12% battery. The thing was basically useless unless you left it out all day without moving. I swear the marketing pics make them look way more powerful than they really are. Has anyone actually found a portable solar charger that works for real use?

Feel for you, I wasted money on one of those too and it just sits in my closet now.

Buddy of mine, like my man Marcus, he bought this expensive cold brew maker. Showed it off at a cookout, talking about how it would save him so much at Starbucks. Last time I went to his place, it was shoved behind a blender with dust on it. He admitted he only used it twice because cleaning the glass carafe was a pain. Ngl, it's basically a decoration now.
