The catch is that the solBAT II takes a long time to charge—4 to 5 days in all, according to the package. After sitting that long in my window, the device still hadn't reached its 1500mA capacity.
Price: $30, but as low as $20 on Amazon.

Incredibly useful device, and the price is very attractive too
Interesting post...I follow you!!!
I need me one of these!!
great, want !
I need one!!!
I'll take two! Where do you find these things you do?!!
perfect for the desert times.
I could use that here in AZ lol
4 to 5 days is quite a catch. But when in need totally worth it.
very swheet
Yeah these are pretty popular.
oh this is very useful and nice
Hmmmmm, its the size of an iphone. So it would be like carrying two iphones. Bulky for pockets :/
No use for that here for the next 6 months.
Very neat, although with the long charge time, it may not get much use from me. But with a $20 pricetag, its almost a shame not to buy it
Wow 4 or 5 days to charge, and the size of an iphone, might make it annoying. But $30 to $20 could make it worth it.
Looks awesome. I might try this out.
4 days to charge. thats 4 days of missed calls, texts and updates on blogger. just kidding. the device overall is great. more green items like this.
thats awesome might have to pick one of these up
Need to pick one of these up. Was always interested in getting a solar energy charger.

That's pretty cool. I can see it being useful for if you go camping and bring your iPod or something like that.
dope
ive been waiting for one of these!
For only $20, might make a great gift for the holidays.
Or for myself :)
the technology really needs to get better before that'll catch.
also, it's probably just charging the lithium battery inside your device, which dies after a while anyway.
That's a really good idea.
this could be good for emergency situations, but very impractical for day-to-day use because of the charge time required
damn its pretty cheap, im actually tempted to buy one!
