Joos Personal Solar Charger
- Our boy scout troop spent a week in Glacier National Park this summer, and my Joos kept my Droid (original) alive all week. I'd leave it leaning against the tent in the morning, and it would be full when we returned in the evening.

- Charges by USB from computer or other USB power source.
