Fantastic Device!

By Backcountry.com Alumni May 19, 2008

This is great to have camping, day hiking, traveling, and in your car. It will hold a charge almost a year, and will charge just about any personal device except a laptop. I love mine and it has come in handy so many times I never leave home without it. Plus, Solar Power is green

Hello scott your solio charger should do a lot better in direct sunlight than behind a window due to the fact that a window reflects some of the sunlight causing your solio to charge slower. And I would recommend that you move it ever 2-3 hours directly in front of the suns path to get the most out of the sun.

I dont get it? I have put in my window for weeks and cant get it to charge up to more than two blinks out of four. Then I plugged it in to charge it and found that it only charged my phone to half power. I am going sailing with it soon and will have it up on deck in more direct sun, but I am not holding my breath. I think rubbing to sticks together to make fire must be easier and more reliable than this.
