PowerFilm Solar USB + AA The light, compact, powerful solar battery charger
by PowerFilm (USB+AA)
PowerFilm has taken their ultra lightweight solar chargers one step further with the release of the PowerFilm USB+AA solar charger. With this one small pocket panel, you have a USB charging option and an AA battery charger.
Like its sister panel, the PowerFilm USB+AA is able to charge AA batteries direct from ordinary daylight. The stronger the daylight, the faster the charging. But this new panel also allows you to connect USB devices to the panel and draw power from the sunlight & the batteries at the same time.

The smallest, lightest AA charger
This small, light solar charger packs more charging power than any of the flimsy plastic chargers you might find on sale for $30. This kit provides 1.44 Watts peak output, enough to charge a set of two high-capacity batteries in one day. Compare this to the less than 0.5 Watt output of the small AA/AAA solar chargers which would take up to 3 days to charge the same high capacity batteries.
Shopper's Note:
If you see a small solar charger specifying that it charges batteries in 4 hours, they are talking low-capacity batteries, with 4 peak-sun hours of daylight (basically all day in the summer).
Special...
For the month of August, with the purchase of the PowerFilm AA+USB, you will receive a USB Micro Universal charger FREE. This tiny charger is ideal for charging your small 3.6v/3.7v camera batteries & cell phone batteries directly from a USB-enabled solar panel like this one, a solar battery pack, or even your laptop.
What's included...
The PowerFilm USB+AA panel comes with two premium Sanyo Eneloop batteries. These batteries feature advanced NiMh chamistry & internal structure to provide the best reliability & storage capability of any NiMh rechargeable. Of course the PowerFilm panel will charge any of your NiMh rechargeables.
PowerFilm solar modules are MADE IN THE USA, and are particularly good in partial shade & low-light conditions. Ideal for applications where you may not be able to have the panel exposed directly to sunlight all the time (ie strapped to your pack).
Take one on your next camping or hiking trip to keep your camera or GPS batteries charged.
Recommended Battery Chargers

Want to store the power you generate so that you can use it anytime, day or night? Need more than the on-board AA battery storage, with more flexibility for phones etc? A solar storage battery pack is the answer. The right battery pack will also let your battery chargers operate at their normal speeds.
