Video Review #71: Solio Classic Solar Charger

[aLilBitOEverything]

did you say 15 min or 50 min of music time after 1 hour of direct sunlight?

[theharlinator]

The new ones DON'T have the connectors included... what a ripoff

[lorddinaire]

I wonder who knows where can I buy a good and strong solar charger that can charge from the original charger of a video camera or a laptop (110-220v)?Thanks.

[Matepena]

This one is the magnesium edition not hte classic.

[bonds911]

great i got like 4 of those lol

[flapjack9999]

How do you tell it to charge through the solar panels?

[edsloan]

buy 2, charge one & use one, then rotate.

[SliverSawblade]

technology these days its like they have taken battery power to the next level

How much was this?

[charliechang825]

do i charge the solio to my mac for 10 hrs upon first use?

[MidniteWhispers23]

yes. you charge it up with any computer for ~5 hours. 10HRs for solar depending on the direct sunlight and conditions.

[plm123456100]

do u need the solio adapter to charge with an ipod/iphone or can u just use ur regular snyc cable?

[marcelchelo]

Must all 3 pannels be ...."open" for it to charge up. Or does it still charge when its closed?

[omarcorrea]

I think it can charge with only one panel exposed while it's folded but I don't know for sure.

[PhotonLight]

@marcelchelo You do need to fully open the Solio Classic for it to charge since all three solar panels work in conjunction.

Hey hun.. I've been looking to buy a solar charger and this one looks pretty gd. I was curious to know if the 'female usb tip' can be used with any usb plug.. for ex. my phones usb plug or my cameras usb plug.. or is it just compatible with the ipod usb plug?! thanx much :)

[omarcorrea]

I believe you can use it with any device that uses USB but check their site to make sure.

[SunToTheDeep]

sweet ima get one for my sis in africa hope it helps

[socal1000]

i belive it is works with all the stock mp3/4 players usb's

[aesfubar]

your huge!! lol compliment :P

[bto4]

Does it work with iPhone 3G?

[omarcorrea]

Right now, you have to use either a charging adapter like the Scosche passPORT to use the iPod tip, or you can use iPhone cord plugged into -----> 12V DC Cigarette Lighter Power Plug for USB Cable ---> Solio 12V Universal Adapter ---> SOLIO device. Solio is currently working on an adapter to avoid having to go through all those steps

[omarcorrea]

YouTube won't let me, I have to get way more views

[Generalvaldez]

thats not fair i know someone who only has 57 videos and hes a youtube partner tysiphone help has like 50 60 vids you have 71

[omarcorrea]

Does his videos get a lot of views? That's what YouTube told me, I didn't have the high View numbers that they required. Go figure, maybe when I'm more popular.

[Generalvaldez]

[omarcorrea]
