Gadget-savvy trekkers will find the Solar GlobeTrotter Kit a real blessing. It comes with a Freeloader unit that can stores solar energy and can charge up a variety of electronic devices, but also has a larger solar panel which can be attached to travel kit, and can charge the Freeloader itself in as little as four hours.
The SuperCharger itself is fully weather resistant and comes supplied with two buckles and a Velcro attachment strap. Weighing just 200 grams it won't add much bulk to a backpack.
Available now for £49.99.

the freeloader looks great but performs poorly, its like all the cables/connectors have faults and cut power to what you're charging. fair enough my leads are bad, but the unit itself runs out of juice quickly.
i know 3 other people with these and they have all got their little quirks.
if you want a solar charger buy one of these
