54 - (can be used in damp and misty environments but must be kept away from direct contact with rain/water)      I was confused about that bit

I think this refers to the main device, not to the panel.

That's a lot of money for a 5W solar panel kit.

Recommendations for others?

I do not, but you can geta solar 5-10w usb charger on Amazon for about £30.

You could just plug a USB chargable lamp into it.
