Title: Solar Charger For Sl-cxxx
Post by: mammothrept on December 06, 2004, 09:54:31 pm

I am using a solar charger with an SL-C3000.  The charger is from Violetta and it has a USB output: Violetta VS-1 (http://www.violetta.com/english/products/vs01.html) and it is connected to the Zaurus with a USB to Zaurus DC power input cable.

So far, everything is fine but both the Zuarus and the charger are new.  Are there any power issues that can creep up over time?  Is using an external charger risky for Zaurii?

Thanks.

This is clearly one of the coolest devices I've seen in a long time.  How did you go about ordering it?

It looks to me like you can order right from the site that chayimkirshen linked to.  $115 including shipping for the "All-in-One Special Bundle" or around $50 for just the charger.

That looks to be a pretty wimpy charger, and expensive for what it is. Tha aurora ones look better to me.
