Well I got my GOALZERO® Escape 150 Adventure Kit and apparently it came charged,
I will update everyone here as to it's ability and functionality. Tonight is my first night, aftert pulling it out of box. It came fully charged (apparently), and I currently have the light hooked on to see its true life duration.
I will say the battery is much more substantial (weight wise) than I had thought, and it comes with every connection I had hoped for.
Light is on, alone, and we will see how long it lasts out.
So far quality seems really decent, and I am happy with the heft of it (not cheap feeling), The solar panel is fixed in an aluminum frame (disappointing) as I had hoped it was a collapsable one, but once discharged, we will see how many days in the Lower Mainland (usually cloudy) it takes to recharge...more bulky than I wanted for camping, but it is what it is!
stay tuned for more product review.

Okay light alone lasted over the course of 2 days and want out in middle of night. So got at least 48+ hrs.
To recharge in gloomy overcast BC, took 2 1/2 days by solar.
That's been my whole use of it so far, if we plan any other tests I will post here. Possibly take to work and let my laptop drain and see if it runs it for a full day....hmmm, maybe.
Cheers
