Fantastic! Hooked it onto the webbing on my bag and left it be whilst walking. Downside is it's possibly a little big for the needs, however it has 3 USB ports on it so it can charge multiple items at once. It's big enough that it does charge my MacBook battery if it's the only thing plugged in.
I forgot to ask the logical follow up question ... what brand and model, please? :mrgreen: Tech stuff just doesn't stay in my head long enough to do research and go to the shops and check things out and *then* buy ... I have to stand on the shoulders of others on this!

It's a Kingsolar 25w 4 panel charger, I got it a couple of years ago from Amazon on a daily deal. Think I paid about £20 for it. Oh, one correction... It is a dual USB, not 3 port. My mistake, it was a typo. Folded it's about 25x15x4cm, open it's 50x25x0.5cm
Prior Planning & Preperation Prevents P*** Poor Performance.

No plan survives first contact.

Bug in before bugging out. Meet the problem on your terms!
