Post #5: Solar Charger

After researching solar chargers, the PowerMonkey Extreme is my new addition to my electronic collection. I have charged the 9000mAh battery numerous times and it holds 98% charge each time. It has charged my cell phone, iPad, AA and AAA batteries, and my iPod. It takes 12 to 15 hours to achieve a full charge (98%) via the AC outlet. I had to purchase the GoalZero Guide 10 Plus AA/AAA charger in order to charge the Garmin GPS, headlamp, and the Gygo bike light that will be used for night paddling. I have yet to use the solar panel.
