More than enough grunt for any electronics you would carry into hills.
I take it everywhere. I have an Anker 280000 power bank and this unit can charge that from half full and my phone from empty in a day of good sun during winter months.
It will charge my phone or inreach in a say 3 hours by themselves.
About the size of an A4 book but a bit heavier.
I carry the power bank as well as you cant always rely on the sun. But in saying that it will charge on an overcast day but not as fast.

I have an Aliexpress 20W copy that folds up. Took it on a roar fly in on west coast with a 20,000mA USB power pack and a USB battery charger. Could use my phone as ebook and charge it when I slept via the USB power pack. Charged GPS batteries and power pack by the panel. And left the panel setup on the side of tent on a sunny day, did 4 AAs and the USB pack no problem. Also recharged my Inreach at night by the USB pack.
