## Description

desertcart.com With more than one million units sold to date, the Solio Classic is the most popular solar charger on the market. And now the Classic just got better with the release of the Classic-i hybrid charger, which is more powerful and looks better than ever. With solar panels that are 20 percent more efficient than in earlier models, the Classic-i easily charges all of your handheld electronic products whether you're at home or on the go. The Classic-i works by absorbing power from the wall socket, a computer, or direct sunlight, and then storing the energy within its internal battery. Once the charger's battery is full, you can use it to power your cell phone, smart phone, iPod, MP3 player, PDA, Bluetooth headset, game player, GPS, fish finder, or digital camera--more than 3,200-plus devices in all. This versatility helps the Classic-i excel as a travel companion, a primary power source for remote locations, or an emergency backup power supply. The universal charger conserves energy and is cost-effective as sun-based energy is completely free and requires no batteries or other fuel-based energy. The solar design couldn't be simpler, with a fan-blade outlay that achieves maximum solar area when in use. Just spread out the blades, expose them to direct sunlight either outdoors or affixed to a window, and get ready to take your power on the road. You can use the sun to fully charge the Classic-i's battery for later use, or you can charge your device directly through the Classic-i. One hour of sunshine provides roughly 20-plus minutes of talk time or 50-plus minutes of MP3 music (depending on the device).To charge the Classic-i's battery without using the sun, simply connect the charger to your computer using the included USB charge-in cable. Plus, the energy in the charger's 1,650 mAh lithium-ion battery doesn't need to be redeemed immediately, as it stores the juice for more than a year. The Classic-i does not come with a preselected variety of adapter tips, but is instead compatible with all i-Go power tips (sold separately), including i-Go mini USB, i-Go micro USB, i-Go iPhone/iPod, i-Go Samsung, and i-Go Blackberry versions. The Classic-i hybrid charger measures 2.5 by 1.3 by 4.7 inches (W x H x D), weighs 2.75 ounces, and carries a one-year warranty.About Solio The sun's energy has always been recognized as powerful. How powerful? The amount of energy that falls on the Earth in one hour is the same amount used by the world's population in one year. With these details in mind, Better Energy Systems created the Solio--a hybrid solar charger for small, portable, electronic gadgets. It was introduced at San Francisco's MacWorld in 2005, where it won Best of Show. The Solio quickly caught the consumer's imagination and interest, because it combined convenient, easy-to-use renewable energy with cutting-edge, award-winning design and engineering. With this combined value and appeal, the company continues to receive prestigious awards and acknowledgements for its family of Solio models, and has now sold more solar systems than any other company in the world. Product Description With solar panels that are 20 percent more efficient, the new Solio Classic-i Hybrid Solar Charger (updated 2010) provides more power to more devices more quickly than ever. To promote maximum flexibility in an economically friendly package, this model does not come with a pre-selected variety of adapter tips (that you may or may not use), but is instead compatible with all i-Go power tips (sold separately). The Solio Classic-i Hybrid Solar Charger is the perfect lightweight travel charger, a primary power source when in remote locations, or an emergency back-up power supply. The Classic-i features a folding three-panel design, three photovoltaic cells plus a full-size charging battery enabling quick re-charging of your portable electronic devices. The Solio Classic-i Hybrid Solar Charger is simple to use. Charge the Classic’s battery one of two ways: directly from the sun using the integrated solar cell, or from your computer using the included USB charge-in cable. The 1,650 mAh internal Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery stores power until you need it - for up to one year. Using the appropriate i-Go power tip, connect it to your electronic device, press the start button and you’re charging on-the-go. Just 1 hour of sunshine = 20+ minutes talk time or 50+ minutes MP3 music (depending on device).This item does not include wall charger and and tips are sold separately.

Review: Ok, but Kiwi is cheaper, smaller, lighter, more powerful and has USB port - Tried the Solio classic-i hybrid solar charger and similar solar battery and charger from Kiwi. The Kiwi was 2/3rds the price, has a higher capacity battery, but is smaller and lighter and uses a USB port for charging rather than a proprietary one. Plus the Kiwi has a case and many tips (plus option to use a standard USB cable, including one from iGo with a tip). The Solio works ok, it just is not as well designed a product.
Review: Fantastic - This purchase was for a gift for my outdoorsie brother and sister in law. I have had one for two years now. I've taken it to Canada, London, Paris, Florida, Black Rock Desert and to the Mojave desert and various camping excursions. I love the fact you can charge it with a wall charger to get an initial fast charge on it (included international adapters). It will hold that charge for a while (I've not tested how long the charge holds). One press of the button will tell you how much charge is left. 4 blinks green = 100% - 76%, 3 = 75% - 51%, 2 = 50% - 26% and one 25% or less. The charger will grab solar charge while sitting in your back window of your car, on your lap on an airplane, in a sunny spot indoors or attached to your backpack while hiking. The indicator light turns red when you are charging (and has varying intensity depending on how much sun the panels are getting). I can charger my Droid razor to 95% (when my phone dies) in an hour or less off this device. Small, compact and comes with lots of adapters for various devices. Even has a usb connector so if your device does not match any of the provided adapters you can use your USB to device charger to charge it. I ALWAYS pack this when I travel. Price is worth it. If/when mine dies I will buy another one if they don't dissapear.

### ⭐⭐⭐ HMMM
*by E***E on October 13, 2011*

I am not sure, but I believe this unit has fried the charging receptacle in my phone and mp3 player ($16 to replace the internal battery). After attempting to charge both, the batteries would not take a charge anymore from anything. Very disappointing when 20 miles out on the trail with no tunes or phone. It doesn't seem to have a problem charging my camera though. Take your own chances ...
