looking for a solar battery charging device (not phone charging)
 

I've seen ton's of solar charging devices that plug into your phone. I'd like to get a solar charger that I can put my spare battery in. I carry a spare battery in my wallet and a 3rd charged at home, but I'd love to have an on the go charger that I could leave on my dash and charge a battery. I like to think of having an extra battery as instant satisfaction. At the end of the day I don't even charge my phone I just run it till it's pretty much dead and switch out the battery

I have been looking for something similar and this is the closest/cheapest gadget i see.

would have to get a mini to micro usb adapter though.

Maybe this one from dragonext which is cheaper.

However, according to the photo, I think you cannot charge the battery directly.

If a charger is needed, you may simply use the wall charger.

The dealexteme model seems to be from the same manufacturer but a 2000 mAh battery instead of a 1350 mAh battery.

can we keep on topic. I was very clear in what I'm looking for and a solar powered battery that will charge my phone is not it. I'd even be interested in a solar powered device that I could plug my battery charger into.

Yeah, it is the prdocut form dragonext. DX is also having similar products. I think they are the same because they are from China...

There is a promotion now. 2 of the solar charger is $12.21 only.

I did some digging and can't seem to find what you're looking for - a device w/ a solar panel that you could put your spare battery in to charge. As far as something you could just plug your existing spare battery wall charger into, you would need something that has a solar panel and an inverter w/ an AC plug on it (solar panels generally deliver DC and wall charger is AC) and the only ones I could find were bulky and expensive. If you're at all electrically inclined you could always try and rig one yourself (Radio Shack sells solar panel kits) but that would be a bit of an undertaking...
