Emergency/Portable phone charger

[GS Bloke]

Hi
I want to get a portable phone charger so I can charge my iPhone and my Scala unit whilst away camping, ideally one that takes readily available batteries such as AA etc, or chargeable one with a high mAh of 2000+.
There are some on ebay but they are too cheap and not getting good feedback.

Any suggestions?

Clearly not... I want to charge over night and not leave my devices hanging off my bike for someone to 'borrow'.

iphone takes about 30 mins to charge up to a decent level so while pissing around putting tents etc up and getting changed its charged already.

and plenty of space under the seat to put phone and a scala unit securely for overnight.

however unless wild camping most camsites have something called electrical sockets

Look to b an expensive one with good feedback?

Look on Amazon.

Google it.

Then get a solar monkey.

Good idea for the time it takes to get tent sorted etc
Not under my seat...

or charge it in your tank bag before you stop.

Ta, but I don't use one, if I can't fit in 3 boxes on the back then I don't need it

A MintyBoost?

Does anyone have a link for where I can buy a charger for a a galaxy S3 that fits the little weird socket under the seat. Seems smaller than a city socket

GS Bloke, this any good?

I bought one recently for the purpose of charging any/all equipment I may have at any given whilst away from home but not yet put it to the test.

Then slap this code on it to get £3.00 off. AWINDIS7
