 forget it! Jul 27, 2010
Worse than useless. We were relying on this during a recent trip, but it simply doesn't work. It seemed to be charged after a full day in the sun, but then would not give any charge to my iphone or my wife's motorola mobile. Next time: plain old batteries.

It doesn't work Jun 11, 2010
It's a nicely designed item, but it doesn't work and the manufacturer's customer service is mediocre. I fully charged the Solio and then took it on a trip, hoping to use it to recharge my iPhone when I couldn't plug it into a wall. When I plugged the Solio into the phone, it would start transferring its charge to the phone, but when the phone then went to sleep (after a minute or two), the Solio would stop transferring the charge. Desperate at one point to charge my phone, I kept it awake while the Solio was plugged in, and got some charge. But this was a real bother -- and because I was using battery power while simultaneously trying to charge the battery, it was pretty ineffective, too.
I emailed the company when I returned home -- and got a response, and one from a person, I think, too. But an exchange of several emails wasn't helpful. They asked if I'd charged the Solio. (I had.) They asked if I was using the right tip. (I was.) That sort of thing. Once customer service had run out of routine (and obvious) suggestions, they stopped responding to my emails.
The Solio isn't a portable charger if it can't successfully transfer a charge to your phone or other device, and it can't.

Terrible Customer Service Jun 07, 2010
I tried calling them with a pre-sales question. They jerk you around through their terrible voicemail system until you hang up.
I won't buy from them - ever.

 Works for me May 28, 2010
Left it on the window sill for a few days until I needed it and it worked perfectly. A little slower to charge up the Kindle than if I had plugged the Kindle into the wall but the Solio will be great while traveling, during a power outage, or when I'm camping in the woods. Funny little instruction sheet with almost no writing and lots of pictures. Once I mastered the art of deciphering the pictures, it worked well for powering my original Kindle. FYI, I had to purchase a special connector tip for the Kindle 1; I believe that one of the tips that came with the Solio would have worked for the Kindle 2. No matter because Solio has ba-jillions of tips on their website for almost every phone and device.

Works Great and as expected! May 11, 2010
I got this little gadget in the mail on Friday. We charged it initially from the wall until it was fully charged. This took about 8-9 hours. The next day we completely killed it charging my ipod, blackberry, and camera(s). On Sunday we put it out in the sun in the morning (probably around 8) and took it in at around 6. We didn't touch it all day. We just left it in the same spot. It didn't charge all the way up, but was probably at about an 80% charge. Had we moved it with the sun (it was partially obscured for part of the day), it probably would have gotten a full charge. All in all, I really like this little gadget! I think the real key is to charge it from a wall outlet initially.
