How has the battery charging gone?
Also, have you charged an iphone. I have the PedalPower+ (their universal cable that is supposed to work w/ the iphone 3gs) and I'm not too happy. The iphone constantly cycles on and off charging until I get to at least 10 MPH, sometimes a bit more. I took an imax battery out on a four hour ride, and the power went up a bit, but not as much as I expected.

If you need a battery to store energy and output it via USB, you can get them very cheaply through Monoprice.com. Since batteries don't last forever, this would make for easy replacement when they stop holding much charge -- I suspect this will be an issue for me because I only intend to use this on tours, which I only do once a year or two, and I don't think lots of idle time is good for batteries.
