    Little but fashion and worth the price

    posted by Jeffounet on 11/23/2011 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    Useful when no power supply is available ! Gives me one hour of extra autonomy with my Nokia C5. The light may also be useful. Very Low Price. I used it during few days of camping and hiking, so It's quite resistant to humidity and shocks.
    Cons:
    Solar charging is slow (10h ?) So you'd better charge it before leaving home ! I would choose another model for a longer period...

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Lightweight and compact. Do not want much bright light for charging. 3 LEDs shine brightly enough, may be useful in some sort of unforeseen situations. There is almost a standard set of adapters. Good price! In Russia, like the device cost about $ 20-30
    Cons:
    Is that the lack of an adapter to micro USB
