Solio H1000 Universal Hybrid Solar Charger
Endless power from the sun for iPods, Blackberries, phones, & more
by Better Energy Systems (H1000)
The latest in the Solio H1000 line - the H1000 hybrid solar charger. Like the Solio H1000 Classic, this charger produces energy from the sun, and stores it until you need it for your mobile devices like iPods, Blackberries, Razrs, GameBoys, & more.
Compact portable power
When you're on the go, power for your gadgets is key. Plug into the Solio H1000® Hybrid 1000. This hybrid boasts a powerful solar panel and battery in an incredibly compact and slender case, conveniently geared with a built-in rugged carabiner and cable. The Hybrid 1000 is simple to use. Just clip on, plug in, and charge up!
Universal Charger
Power virtually all your electronic devices. Works out of the box with most common mobile phones, MP3 players, and GPS units - simply change the adaptor tip.
Stores Power
Charge your devices anytime, day or night. Internal rechargeable battery stores power for up to one year. (A full Solio H1000 H1000 will charge a typical mobile phone once or give 10 hours of MP3 music - just 1 hour of sunshine = 15 minutes talk time or 40 minutes of MP3 music).*
Hybrid Charger
Charge anywhere on Earth. Plug into the Sun and charge Solio H1000 through its solar panel, it’s free and green! Or use the included tip to charge from the USB port of any computer.
No sun? No problem!
The Solio H1000 is called a 'Universal Hybrid Charger' for the simple reason that it gives you portable power in a variety of ways. If there is no sun, the on board battery does the job. When the sun is unavailable, charge your Solio using the included USB adaptor plugged into your computer, so even if there is not enough sun, the Solio H1000 will play the part of a back-up battery.
Solio FAQ...
Can I use my iPod, phone, or PDA while connected to the Solio?
Yes. The Solio acts just like a reserve battery. When it is connected, it will power your device & charge the battery at the same time. If there is daylight, the Solio will use the power from the sun to provide power & charge your battery at the same time.
Do I need a sunny day to use the Solio?
No. The Solio will charge as long as there is daylight, with the rate dependant on the intensity of the light. It will produce the most power in direct, bright sunlight. Even at night, the Solio comes in very handy as a back-up battery for your device.
More than just a good idea...
Over its lifetime, Solio will ideally produce more energy than was used in its construction.

Solio Charger Crib Sheet...
Phones, PDAs, & Smart Phones:
Use the specific adaptor tip for your phone make/model. The Solio comes with a set, and offers many more as options. You can also simply plug your phone's car adaptor into the Solio's 12V socket accessory (optional).
iPods & mp3 Players:
Connect your iPod or other mp3 player to the Solio using the Solio's USB port. A dedicated iPod connector is also available.
Digital Cameras:
Many digital cameras can be powered directly from the Solio using the Solio's USB port or Mini-USB adaptor tip. Note that cameras do not 'charge' from USB ports, but many will operate while connected.
GPS:
Use your GPS' 12V car adaptor to plug into the Solio's 12V socket accessory (optional). Note that the Solio will only operate GPS units that require less than 3W of power. The Solio can also power select GPS units via its USB port.
AA/AAA Battery Charging:
We've tried the Solio with DC-input & USB battery chargers, and can recommend the Mini USB Charger. Other models require more than the 3-Watt maximum of the Solio.
Other Devices:
The Solio offers GameBoy & PSP connectors. It is not able to support devices above 3W, and so cannot power laptop computers.
