Faulty Product!! I mounted the unit on the roof of my car for maximum sun exposure and my phone blew off the cord running at highway speeds of 80mph. "Son of a Beach"

I had one of these. It worked for about 6 mos. and then just quit. I sent it back and then moved away from Alaska.

Seems like a common price for this. Google around for coupons that can get this down to about $18 shipped. I can't find many reviews tho. It looks compelling because it has an integrated LIon battery so it can likely pump enough juice to actually charge your stuff up to full. But when the battery goes, this too goes to the landfill. How long until it pays for itself do you suppose?

worries me that the unit is jet black is supposed to be in the sun for long periods of time yet it contains a lithium battery. lithium batteries' main enemy is heat so this should never have made it off of the drawing board with its flawed design.

I have read that these also do not work worth a flip.
