Yah. I will try to post pics later of it lit up. I throws out a LOT of light.
My wife actually just used the power out port to charge her phone. Worked well. I will try to plug in some USB led strings too.

First pics. Only lighting is solar yard lights and a wall mount.
Second pics. Looking across the creek. The tress on the other side are 30 yards away. I put a box by the light, so it didn't flare the camera.

USB vacuum, hmm.. might have to look into that. Right now I have a suitcase size Li tool battery unit, that works fine.
Got a USB bus right next to the cabin bank. Plugged in right now are: 1.hearing aids, 2.fan, 3.desk light, 4.bug zapper, 5. TV speaker, 6.Razor, 7.Tablet 8.iPhone 9. Wife’s junk 10. Outside motion lights
That’s in addition to all the DC stuff plugged right into the bank: water pump, modem, TV, ceiling lighs, camera, fridge.
And then the inverter: microwave, toaster, tool battery chargers, washing machine, misc. AC stuff.
Sorry, got off track there.. Lots of electrical stuff for off grid!

I figure the usb for the stick-vac will have plenty of time to recharge between our 'need to vacuum'.

Another update. My wife used this to recharge her phone. It worked very well.
I plugged it into the solar set up we use to power our gazebo. Only 45 watts of very old HF panels, and a 7 year old Never Start deep I battery, with a cheap charge controller with USB ports. The Swiss Tech unit recharged in a couple hours.
