I just bought this package on line from Tekkeon site.
http://www.tekkeon.com/productcart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=9&idproduct=194

Came in 3 days and I have started testing it. So far it does everything it said it will. It is both a battery backup / charging device and also a charger for AA batteries. The reason I am trying it out is it takes my NMH batteries and also alkaline that in a pinch I can pick up anyplace along the way and they have a 5 year shelf life. I have a iPhone 4 with a Mophie juice box case that doubles the battery capacity. I have charged both with the Tekkeon together and alone. The unit is rated at 1000ma max draw and when I charged case and phone together the Tekkeon got slightly warm so I think I will use it one at a time. I don’t know the charge rate of the droid phones so you would have to check that out. My old DIY solution gave me weeks of recharge but was not as elegant of a solution as the little Tekkeon pack. The DIY shown below worked well.
