    A great idea with a deeply flawed execution.

    A great idea with a deeply flawed execution.
    I own and like quite a few of goal zero's products. I also own the much older Guide 10+ which has never given me trouble, it's just very outdated and can not charge a modern power-hungry smartphone. So I bought this to get a nice upgrade. I won't cover the panel since it's just the stock 5W panel (Nomad 5) and has been reviewed extensively. Here are my thoughts on the Guide 12 unit.Pros:Charges reasonably quickly (roughly 5 hours in good sun) with the included solar panel and charges modern phones at medium speed (no quick charge, looks about 1 amp output), only gets warm to the touch, not hot.The included cable is useful for both charging from the panel, then flipping around to charge your phone.It does include the little plastic insert to charge AAA batteries. I forgot to put it in the pictures.Cons:The flashlight function requires a 5 second hold to activate, not 2 seconds like the manual says.The device is terrible at displaying the charge level of the batteries, filling the charge level meter only when fully charged and forgetting/resetting the displayed charge level to only one dot as if almost empty if you remove the batteries and put them back in for any reason--even if you didn't use them and just took them out for testing like I did. 4 dots of full charge drop straight to 1 and stay there until you fully charge again. Discovered that trying to solve the final con. Which brings us to that one~Finally, the big con: the device continuously shrieks at a high frequency harmonic even when it's off as long as the batteries are inserted, it's not much louder than someone continuously whispering a few feet from you but I would struggle to rest in the same tent as this noise. I've included a sample in the video and you can hear it change tone as you toggle the flashlight on and off and I move it around the phone mic. It's at its loudest when the device is doing nothing and not charging. It's high pitched to almost the extreme limits of what my phone mic can record, but with human ears it is VERY annoying.Being a first reviewer can be risky, but I've had above average results with Goal 0 before. This time I cannot recommend this particular product until some of these bugs get ironed out.
