Solar powered phone charger??

**-NEO-** · 12th March 2010

Ive been thinking of buying a solor powered mobile phone charger. The one i had in mind was (Nexxus solar charger pro)

It's about �20 quid off eBay, which i think is an ok price. My question is, has anyone had any experience with solar chargers? Are they any good?

The main reason i want one is, because im going to be doing some traveling, where charging my phone will not be an option, but there is plenty of sunshine!

It says it can do a "Full" recharge. Would that be possible from a solar charger of this size?

Anyway, let me no what you think.

Cheers,
Jon.

while I have no first hand experience, I think generally speaking any solar charger has the potential to do a 'full charge' - it just depends on how many hours/days you leave it on charge..

To be honest I think you'll find it very difficult getting a straight forward answer, there are soo many factors, battery size, phone model, how much sunshine etc etc.

there's also dynamo's which would offer a recharge facility aways from mains or other electricity sources.. (http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.3669)
