Solio™, the Universal "Hybrid" Charger is powerful enough to charge all of your handheld electronic products at home or on the move, anywhere under the sun.
Solio is a Hybrid because it can accept power from either the wall socket or Sun storing this energy within Solio's internal rechargeable battery. Solio then uses this energy to power your gadgets at the same rate as if they were plugged into the wall. Solio will also hold its charge for up to a year.
Solio limits your need to purchase and carry around multiple chargers for all of your gadgets and is your one stop charging solution for all of your products from cell phones and iPods, to digital cameras, game players, and GPS.
A fully charged Solio Classic will charge a typical mobile phone more than twice or give over 20 hours of MP3 music - just 1 hour of sunshine = 20 minutes talk time or 50 minutes of MP3 music
In the field; I bought this to keep my Zune and cell phone charged while on the bike. It does a great job charging devices, once it is fully charged. The Solio contains a 1600 mAh battery which gets the initial charge and is then used to charge your other devices. Starting off with a full charge from the AC adapter would be reccomended as even with the 3 blades, it takes quite a bit of time (and direct sun) to charge on its own, about 9 hours. It comes with plenty of tips and a suction cup so you can stick it to a window. I use the car adapter cable as I already have a Zune and phone charger for the car.
The Solio is really well built and quite durable. When not in use the blades
fold up to a very compact package about the size of your palm.
