You charge it once... pack it in your bag and the next time you need juice, you use it. Recharge only as frequently as you find yourself in that situation with no battery left in your cell.

You need to charge it up via your PC first, but it'll keep topped up thanks to the lovely sun rays. I have a solar powered thing just like this, and for the summer festival it’s an absolute godsend.

The alternatives that use off-the-shelf AA or AAA batteries are much more useful in such a case.

Has 1000mah and is $20 at tigerdirect . Not sure if it's less elsewhere, just happened to see it. Still, looks pretty good according to reviews, and has enough voltage to charge a DS fully if you have an adapter. Another, similar charger works with all USB devices AND comes with a mini-B cable.
