I have a few of the one-battery version ML102, and they work fine for keeping my mp3 player, mini Action Cam (Midland XTC 200), and USB rechargable blinkies charged on a tour. The camera and player can even work while charging. They are also a great Li-Ion battery charger.

Of course...these are first world problems. Take a look at this guy and his story: http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/af...lawi.wind.boy/

There's cell towers and cell phones in Africa, but his area had no power to charge the phones.

Maybe someone can come up with a portable carbon-fiber/titanium windmill that spins your dyna-hub all night. Or windmill blades that snap to your spokes, so your dyna-hub wheel itself is the windmill...
That's a great little device.

I was reading a review of the Energizer and it said that using lithium batteries will provide 8 hours of charge time while alkaline only provides 30 minutes. BTW, the Energizer includes lithium batteries.

Ha ha. How about bladed crabon spokes that automatically adjust their angle to utilize the wind to push your bike along?
