Also, most solar panels can convert to 12V, so you can hook up a car charger to it if you need.

Will this solar USB charger charge my iPod Touch 2nd gen?

Solar panel : 0.4W
# Ac input: AC100V-240V
# Output Voltage 5.5V DC
# Convert efficiency: over 18%
# Max output current: DC 500mA

A solar panel's rating is at standard testing...
