Editorial Reviews:

iPod and iPhone are two great mobile products and, when filled with energy, provide much happiness. But power may be fleeting. How can you keep them charged when you're on the road? Solio, the Universal "Hybrid" Charger is powerful enough to charge all of your handheld electronic products at home or on the move, anywhere under the sun. Solio is a Hybrid because it can accept power from either the sun or the wall storing this energy within Solio's internal rechargeable battery. Solio then uses this energy to power your gadgets at the same rate as your wall adapter. Solio will also hold its charge for up to a year.
Solio limits your need to purchase and carry around multiple chargers and is your one stop charging solution for all of your products from cell phones and iPods, to digital cameras, game players, and GPS. A fully charged Solio Classic will charge a typical mobile phone more than twice or give over 20 hours of iPod music. Just 1 hour of sunshine = 20 minutes talk time or 50 minutes of MP3 music.

Summary: My giftees are very pleased with the Solio
Comment: I gave the Solio S19-B38D Universal Hybrid Charger to my daughter and her family for Christmas because they live in Houston where there are power outages concurrent with hurricanes. They will use it to charge their cell phones which would be there only way of communicating with family, who live in San Francisco, at such a time. They're quite pleased with it because they can charge it up while they have power and it will hold the power for up to a year. But even if it isn't charged when their power goes out they can charge it with solar power.

Summary: Solio works great
Comment: I've had a great experience with all of my Solio chargers. Critics need to understand the basics of solar power before they complain. This is an excellent product not only for the environment but for the convenience factor. I've had great luck on long camping and back country trips where the Solio has powered my GPS and cell phone when I needed it most. Don't knock it till you try it. And to the wonderful people at Solio I say - keep up the excellent work - I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

Summary: Not rainproof
Comment: Charges slowly when used in window. Works better outside, but passing tropical showers can ruin. Should be better sealed for outdoor work. Also, even with repositioning, it can take two days to accumulate a full charge.

Summary: Good beginning to future tech
Comment: I bought this product about a year ago. i travel alot an like to use the cell as back up for when I do not have time to sit and wait in a airport. (can recharge on the plane) For my phone and mp3 player - it has worked great. It will recharge my razor 2.5 times before being drained.
I noticed it seemed to take a long time until I talked with an engineer friend of mine who told me that most glass, especially glad in cars, is designed now to reduce the full impact of the sun in various ways. Best to to this outside. Upon reading reviews, those who had the best charge rates were those who indeed left theirs outside in one place.
Finally - one of the main reasons I invested in this device was to help front the money in a company and technology I beieve we must develop further. By buying this product, I hope the company will make enough to continue to develop better products for us in the future. I have seen this product evolve to this point before buying one that seemed pragmatic and affordable - so I would like to help ensure its future.

Summary: Solio works
Comment: It takes about 8 hours of direct sunlight to fully charge. If its overcast
and/or not pointed towards sun it will take longer. Best to not do it through
a window. Its just common sense.
It comes with the adapter to connect to the ipod. You just plug the solio to
the adapter which leaves you with an USB connector free to hook to the
ipod or iphones cable that came with that device. A lot of people just don't get the connections. Then just push the on/off button and your charging from the solio's internal battery. If you have almost any cellphone adapters can be easily ordered for around $10.
