My boyfriend and I would use it to charge our cell phone. This would let us unplug our chargers, and never have to worry about bringing them when we traveled (we travel a lot!) or about low batteries on the go. We’d also use this to keep our camera batteries charged up, so we wouldn’t miss those “must-have” shots of our dog.
Cell phone, and sons’ I-pod. Would love being able to recharge with the free energy from the sun.
the solar charger would be awesome to have! suelee1998 @ gmail.com
My husband and I work outside and often have to leave our phones in the car to charge. It would be great if we could get a charge from Mother Nature and keep our communicators close by!
I would charge my Droid, which ends up being my PC much of the time. Being unchained from the desk – and it’s power-source – would be amazing, and sitting outside and working/charging would lift my spirits and charge my soul…which has always been green and solar powered :)
I would charge my little one’s dvd player. It is a solar energy charge so it is good for the environment!
I would charge my phone. I would keep a charged solar charger in my purse so that whenever I have forgotten to charge my phone, I’m ready. Plus, solar energy is so much cleaner, it will make me happy.
I’d charge my cellphone and our camera.
