5.0 out of 5 stars Works better than I expected, May 21, 2010

This review is from: Scosche SolBAT II Solar Powered Backup Battery and Charger for iPods & Other MP3 Players (Electronics)
I had my doubts about how this product would actually work and if it would allow me to charge my Iphone3GS because Apple has made its phone series very picky about chargers. I can safely say that this product charges WITHOUT forcing the popup about being a non-standard charger. The unit itself its quite small and I have it attached to the windshield of my car with the included suction cups. I'm using it to charge up my phone while running the Navigation and Traffic Apps (which really drain the phone). Overall I would rate it 5 stars and I'm considering purchasing another for additional devices that I could carry with me on trips.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Charger - Light, Well Designed and Effective, April 17, 2010

This review is from: Scosche SolBAT II Solar Powered Backup Battery and Charger for iPods & Other MP3 Players (Electronics)
Purchased here on Amazon, it charges via the included ipod cable and also has a USB out port for charging anything else that has a USB enabled charger. Charged my droid from 30% to 100% in about an hour and that was even in cloudy conditions. Status lights show when it is receiving enough light to create charge and another status light shows when it is charging the connected device. It will even hold a charge like a battery so you can leave it in the sun to charge up then bring it in and connect it to your device. I may buy another!

1.0 out of 5 stars Big Disappointment, October 25, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Scosche SolBAT II Solar Powered Backup Battery and Charger for iPods & Other MP3 Players (Electronics)
I first bought the Tenergy USB-500 Hybrid, but my Iphone 3GS didn't like it so I decided to try this one. It arrived fully charged so I hooked it up to my Iphone and everything worked as planned. Then I recharged the SolBAT via the USB connection at it charged up to 4 lights pretty quickly. I then used it to charge my Iphone and got about a 40% boost before the SolBAT went dark. That was less then I expected. My next test was to charge it strictly via solar. I mounted it on my dashboard and waited for it to hit 4 lights......that was over 2 weeks ago. It never made it past 3 lights and that was after a 2 week period with at least 9 days of good to full sun. Well, I found myself in a real world situation and I figured 3 lights was 75% charged so it should give me at least a 15% boost, so I hooked it up to my Iphone. I checked back 5 to 7 minutes later to make sure all was well only to find that the SolBAT had been drained completely and my Iphone got a whopping 3% boost. So it's pretty useless as a solar device. My next thought was to use my original Tenergy charger to charge this one, but of course this SolBAT can only be charged with it's own very specific cable....which I now have to find. So it may be that this solar device may only really work as an "off grid" device when charged by ANOTHER solar device.....oh the irony! Seriously, I want to believe in solar but this first venture has only reinforced my suspicions that it's all hype.
