I was disappointed with this product. Although it did charge my phone and IPOD well after being charged itself via USB, I found that once it had run out of battery it would not charge anything using just the solar panel.
This rendered it not a solar charger at all! But a spare energy pack. I used it at a festival and charged my phone once (not fully) and it was then dead, even in the blazing direct sunlight.

Bought this for festivals/camping, came in very handy especially as all my friends with different makes of mobile phones were using it too.

THE Pocket Solar Charger CAME ON TIME. USED IT ONCE, WORKING FINE…USED IT ON ALL MY PHONES E.G. NOKIA N95-8GB, MOTO L7 & SE W850I. TRIED THE NEXT DAY & IT STOPPED WORKING. I DO NOT KNOW THE REASON, IT COULD BE THE SUN (NOT SENDING DOWN ENOUGH SOLAR ENERGY). I JUST DON’T KNOW. ITS WHY I GAVE IT A 1/5 BECAUSE IF ITS NEEDS MORE SOLAR ENERGY FROM THE SUN/I WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR HOTTER DAY…IF IT STILL DON’T WORK ITS A CRAP PRODUCT. IF IT WORKS I WILL CHANGE MY REVIEW.

What an outstanding piece of tech. No more finding the mains plug for the moble or MP3 player. Just plug in at work and a few hours later phone is fully charged.
Brill, keep it up amazon.
