Customer Reviews

Starts well, finishes poorly
The first 2 times I used this to charge mobile phones it worked well. I was impressed and pleased not to have used mains electric. Then the next couple of times I used it, it didn't charge my phone properly, but stopped half way. Then the suckers to the window kept coming unstuck. Several attempts later by both me and my partner and we gave up. I first thought my phone was broken, but having tried it again on mains electricity it charges fine. My partner resorted to trying to stick this to the window with cellotape because the sucker is so useless then we finally gave up on that too. And yes there was sunshine! So not a clue why it doesn't work. A really pity because I really want solar to take over the world's energy crisis - but before 2098 hopefully !
