So I was excited to get this thing for an upcoming trip, and was glad to find the cord fit my Motorola Cliq, but was disappointed in the wind turbine. It was about as sturdy as a pinwheel, and after a brief stint on the front of my motorcycle, I found that it (the turbine) had broken off of the charger altogether. So now I'm stuck with just the solar method, which is ok, but I was really looking forward to that wind charging option. No recourse to contact amazon about the break,either, which is disappointing. It'd be nice to know I could at least order a replacement turbine.

First off this was a must have for charging the cell phones in camp! It kept the ipods and cameras alive too...with a little time management. It did fall short on what the maker states however. Supposed to get a full charge with 8 hours in the sun....it doesn't. Here in the islands we get solid 10 hr. plus days of sun in the summer plus all night wind power from the Trade-Winds and this would only go to 3/4 charge. With a little time management it still doable so its not a big deal, just be advised that the claims are a little over what your actual results will be.

I was so happy to find this product but my first K3 wouldn't charge past the medium level. I talked to the manufacturer. I had to send it back to them, which cost me $ since I'm not in the US. They sent me another, but the same thing happens. I followed all procedures but nothing makes it fully charge, not even the AC power. It's a pity, even if the price now is much lower I'd think twice. Unfortunately it doesn't have power enough to charge a cell phone.
