 JoWow stole my money. June 17, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I ordered this charger for my husband's birthday in February. It did not work (at all). Defective, okay, it happens. Returned to JoWow and they are STILL (June 15) giving me the runaround/no longer responding to my request for a refund or replacement. Eighty six bucks is a lot of money to me.
NEVER order from JoWow.
Solio Charger a bust June 9, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I purchased the Solio charger so I could charge my iphone on the AIDS/LifeCycle ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles. The charger was almost useless. Mounted on the back of my bike, only once in 7 days of biking did it charge more than halfway. When it was charged less than half, it would not charge my iphone. Complete waste of money.
 So far so good May 1, 2008

I had been looking at this unit for a bit and finally decided to get one. The unit is small and thin and looks pretty cool. In the box you get three adapters (more on that in a minute) and a USB attachment.
The three attachments are for the most common cell phone(s) (nokia) as well as an attachment for blackberry type units and then finally the iPod.
Charging the unit takes some time. It needs DIRECT sunlight. You can tell if its getting good light by a red LED light on the front. It will stay lit up when its getting full on light. The sun light charge was "slow" so I decided to USB charge the unit the next day at work. That took about 2.5 hrs (the unit probably needed a full charge). After that I connected my iPod and began the "charge". It was slow and took a few hours to get the iPod back to a full charge.
Solio has a web site that can get you all the connections you might need. (PSP to Phone/camera etc). I could not find my phone so I emailed them and got a response about 24hrs later. (not too bad). The attachments appear to be about 9.95USD.
If you are looking for "fast" charges I'd say just use your wall outlets/usb's etc. I leave he Solio in my car during the day and get the sunlight..then I'll charge my iPod or my phone (when I get that attachemt) during the ride home.
A cool device and I feel like I am doing the right thing.
