1.0 out of 5 stars A total DECEPTION, be careful, July 24, 2010
This review is from: Powertraveller SG-010 Solargorilla Portable Solar Charger for your Notebook/Laptop, Cell Phone and other Handheld Devices! (Electronics)
I bought the product a couple of months ago when the weather in UK was cool. As I received the product. I checked it with my mobile phone, it worked well. When I attached it to my toshiba satellite pro A120 laptop while running on battery, I was suprized that the laptop power option was showing now running on AC, however, after a few minutes, I found my laptop battery charge was deminishing. I waited for the summer to come and see how it works in full sunshine to exploit its full capacity. A total disappointment. As I put it in direct sunlight and plugged into my laptop, at first it was charging my laptop but after a few minutes when it was warmed up in the sun for a while,it caused my laptop to auto shutdown. And this happened consistantly each time causing my laptop to shutdown as and when I plugged it into my latop after being put for a while in direct sun. It goes wrong when it is put in direct sunlight due to heating of its panels. If you want to use it in winter it might work but it is definitely not suitable for summer months (even not for a UK summer which comparatively cool). But the real problem is that you dont get good sunlight in winter. It is in summer when the sun light is at its best. I dont know whether it becomes short-circuited or some other abnormality occurs when it is put in strong sunlight for a while. Each time I had to remove my laptop battery to turn it on after it was shutdown by the solargorilla. Unfotunately, no warranty is offered with this product, so I cant return it. It is just a waste of money. I have contacted powertraveller about this. They suggested to use some shield with it to protect it from hot sun. Can you believe it? A product that is made to harvest light energy to make electricity needs to be protected from strong sunshine. It is just rediculous.

1.0 out of 5 stars The plastic housing on this SOLAR CHARGER MELTED in the sunlight, February 24, 2011
This review is from: Powertraveller SG-010 Solargorilla Portable Solar Charger for your Notebook/Laptop, Cell Phone and other Handheld Devices! (Electronics)
Utter crap. A scam. Three months after use I left it in the sun one day to fully charge my iPod.

I came back and it melted.

Great work you clowns. I want my money back.
