you dont need to drive around if you are using a solar trickle charger but must agree that uni charger sounds good also

We used to wild camp (caravan) in our pop top that had a 60w solar panel built into the roof. (you can see it on the pic).

We still had to top up with an overnight EHU charge every 4 days or so.

How about something like this


Currently (sic) on a good offer!


I think this is more like i'm looking for, self contained, safe, but any idea how long it'll last ? One of the reviews said it only lasted for 3 smartphone charges (although the battery hadn't been conditioned).

If I were to get a battery and some of those connectors, what do you actually connect it to ?. I'm sure that sounds like a thick question, but I don't know the answer and bow down to your greater knowledge.

Thanks, as ever.

For anyone who is following this, or who searches in the future, i've opted for one of these: http://www.powapal.co.uk/

I think it should serve my purpose, it's easily rechargeable and reasonable value.
