When I go on an overnighter I take a 7500 mah battery pack for my electronic devices. Recently I been seeing all kinds of ads for the same thing only solar power can charge the battery. They are running around 20-30 bucks.  Anyone have any experience with these? Almost seems like it would take an entire day to charge. My packs currently take several hours of charging in a wall outlet when they are low. Worth the money or mostly hype?

Mostly hype. The solar panels are so small on those cheap rechargeable packs that they would take days to recharge the battery bank. I have tried a couple of those cheap ones, and they just don't work well.

 You know I kind of figured the same thing but I wanted to get an opinion from somebody who’s actually used one. Thank you I think I will save my money. I’ve got some pretty good battery packs already that you got a charge home but they will charge just about anything on my bike until they’re dead anyways LOL
