I wanted to have a charger with a beautiful design, strong and able to follow me everywhere. I found a complete artist. It connects to all my devices, troubleshoots and amazes my friends. I do not know yet how long it takes for a full recharge in the sun 6:00 but should suffice. It was adopted by my Iphone and I feel more "green" ... if not to the carbon footprint of my powermonkey!
