iPhone Solar Charger Case

On this very wet British morning my postman handed me a soggy jiffy bag from China. Inside was a black box containing my new iPhone Solar powered sheath (as they call it).

It was well packaged and only took a week to get here. If i remember rightly i payed around $50 including postage and packaging from a company in Hong Kong called Brando.

Here is a first look..

So far so good, the instructions are pretty easy to follow and at the moment the iPhone is sat on my office window quietly charging.

I will tell you more after a proper test.

UPDATE:

After a day of testing my solar powered case appears to have died. Do not buy one of these until I find out what exactly has happened. It appears that during heavy use whilst with the battery switched to charge, the unit over heats and the battery breaks. It got really hot during use and now the lights won’t work and it doesn’t charge the iPhone. More info when i have it.

Don’t forget you can support this blog and then i can by more juicy tech to try out.. Or you can just send me the tech.
