You might be asking: What is all this anyways. Simply put it, we make portable solar chargers. There are three components to it: the solar panels, the powerbank, and your electronic devices.
The solar panels (which are those blue strips) absorb sunlight and transfers them into the powerbank via an input cable. The powerbank is basically the stuff that converts the solar energy into usable electricity and stores it in the batteries, which are also in the powerbank (for some types of solar chargers we make, conventional AA or AAA batteries are used, so they are removable for use directly after being charged). The last step is where the energy stored in the powerbank gets transferred to your electronic device via the output cord by switching a button on.
CHARGE WHENEVER YOU LIKE AND WHEREEVER YOU ARE!!! It's SOLAR! As long as there is sunlight, you can charge your electronics. Forget about having no power, forget about finding a socket, CHARGE as you go!
Our solar chargers come with multiple connectors that you can connect to the output cord, customizing it for your every needs. We have connectors for mobile phones, GPS, PDA, digital cameras, PSP, Nintendo DS Lite...and loads more. For iPhones and iPods, you don't even need our output cord as you can plug the charging cable directly into our output socket. What all this means? Forget about having multiple chargers and getting all tangled up in bits of wires, use it as a conventional charger that charges all devices.
But what if there is no sun? What do you do if you still need vital power? Well, some chargers come with AC Adapters and car chargers, meaning you also have the option of charging via the wall socket and the car during night. For all our models, you could also charge via the PC using the USB cable. So you have 4 choices: solar, wall socket, car, or PC. Of course, we prefer you charger via Solar. It's awesome to show around!
Well, it actually matters quite a bit! The boring guy says to you: "Our solar chargers use the triple junctions technology and absorbs more energy and the use of the Amorphous solar panels are of significantly better performance than the Crystalline solar panels"...zzzZZZZZZ.
Here's how you should remember it. We use the flexible, bendable, scratch proof, punchable, kickable, and throwable solar panels (remember don't throw the Powerbank, cause it's like throwing your iPhone!). The other companies use the hard, stiff, and breakable panels (of course, it's glass like material!). Performance? The hard panels absorb more energy then our flexible panel when the sun is 100% (mid noon), no clouds in the sky, and it's facing directly at your panel.
In reality? Just ask yourself; do you want a charger that charges only for 2 or 3 hours a day whilst for the rest of the time it lays dead? Well, our flexible one performs a lot better than the hard panels when there are clouds, when the sun isn't 100%, when the sun isn't facing directly at the panel...eh...essentially a very typical day. And I MEAN WAY better, our most popular SolarDuo typically gets charged in 5 hours, maximum 8 hours. The hard panels? Eh... many many days, not exactly your best choice if you want it to charge your electronics.

The BatteryBank is for you if you are looking for reserve power, a super charger that charges everything, or that you are looking for value for money. It comes without the solar panels, but it's solar ready! So once you decide you want to enjoy some solar, you can buy the panels later. It's good as a gift promoting eco friendly behavior or for personal use.
SolarUno is the solar charger that comes with one panel. It's not as powerful as the rest but at least it's a good start into the world of solar. Buy it if you are looking to try out what solar products are all about. Because it comes with a cool black casing and has quite a fashionable look, it's also good as a gift to a friend or family.
SolarDuo is our most popular solar charger because it is quite powerful but not that expensive. It's good if you are looking for a reliable solar charger that powers all your small electronics. By using two AA batteries, it gives enough capacity to fully charge a typical mobile phone.
SolarMio is a powerful conventional solar charger. In this set, it not only comes with 10 electronic connectors, but also has the AC adapter and the car charger. This means if you are looking for a conventional charger, this is your choice! Get your powerbank charged via the sun, the wall socket, the PC, or the car. Never fear of running out of power.
