How is this different from the Ycpower Mp-s23000 II Solar Charger 23000mah USB External ? It looks the same. It also looks a lot like a few others .

This is Levin Service. Thanks for your question and concern to Solstar. This device has two types of charging: one is conventional charging via outlet; the other is charging by the solar panel which can convert sunlight into power. We suggest that please do not over depend on sunlight, but it will surely do a great job in case of emergency like there is no wall charger by your side or only sunlight left around.

The wall wart is the size you described. No its not a smart charger. This is not a LiOn battery. This is a run of the mill sealed lead acid battery. It puts out 400ma on a 7ah battery and takes days to fully charge. I wouldn't be to concerned with overcharging. I would be more concerned with to much of a drain for the charger or the 5 watt solar panel that is intended for this unit. With no solar or charging, the battery will last about 30 days transmitting a few dozen pictures a day with little downloading. And yes, the wall wart is 115ac with no adapter. If its different, this is literally a $2 charger.

Yes same charger. It really does make a huge improvement. Only problem is the back cover is very fragile. I dropped it once, and it cracked. The seller was a complete a-hole to me and wasn't willing to make any effort to help me out. I bought a separate cover, which doesn't fit very good. Have to unplug it to charge it (or cut the hole in the bottom to be bigger) and the button pressing becomes a chore. I would go with a different seller.

There is a good chance that the current output is not high enough to charge the battery really fast. Additionally, it is better for the battery's longevity to charge it slower. I would have to take out my multimeter to check into it, but my guess is that its good for over night charges and not super fast charges. What I recommend is purchasing a second battery and keep one charged up so you don't have down time. I personally have an S2 and when at conferences, typically pull out that second battery.

The charger that i bought for my coby mp3 player was from a company called "uxcell" also through amazon. My charger has a blue led light. It looks like the one in the picture you are asking about. But if you can find the "uxcell" one, compare it to that because I know that works and I have had it for almost a year. I hope this helps.

D. Steelman- I don't know what's going on but I'm in the same boat. I ordered this because it was supposed to be a smart charger that knew when to stop the charge. It doesn't. It seemed a cheap alternative to the fancier La Crosse. Instead I feel like I threw away the $22 I paid. (I see now it's going for $10-$11 more, and not sold directly through Amazon.com.) Anyone know the best way to get this exchanged for the advertised model?

Anyone crack one open and see if this is anymore than a transformer and a couple diodes or is it an active charger that dials back the voltage or current when the battery is charged? Thanks. (I know it's only $8, but still wondering)

I have one that looks just like that one but mine charges right in the base when it's plugged into an electrical socket! I don't know what the number is on mine. So sorry. That's the best I can do. I hope I was of some help!

Doesn't look like it. I plugged its (custom?) cable into a (powered) USB outlet, three was no indication of battery being charged.FWIW, I didn't really like the provided changer (huge thing with a cord), so I purchased Wasabi charger kit that came with with two spare batteries and other useful add-ons: Wasabi Power Battery (2-Pack) and Charger for Nikon EN-EL12 and Nikon Coolpix AW100, AW100s, AW110, AW110s, P300, P310, P330, S31, S70, S610, S620, S630, S640, S800c, S1000pj, S1100pj, S1200pj, S6000, S6100, S6150, S6200, S6300, S8000, S8100, S8200, S9050, S9100, S9200, S9300, S9400, S9500I just double checked in the manual: the USB is only used for image transfer.

Mine looks like a generic Asian power adapter 12V 1.5A. There is a part number 4064-705061-011 AD on a tag fitted to the cord. I did a search on amazon.com and got this AC Adapter Power Supply Charger Cord for WD P/N: 4064-705061-011 AD External HDD However the plug at the hard drive end looks too small in diameter, as the one reviewer found out. However this next one looks right it has more than adequate power spec and the dimensions on the plug match those on mine. http://www.ebay.com/itm/12V-AC-DC-Adapter-For-WD-MyBook-WDG1NC5000N-External-HDD-Power-Supply-Cord-PSU-/230850539419?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash;=item35bfc3af9bHowever I don't give any guarantee that I am right.

Hi,I have not received this unit so far and it is more than 30 days! I have now sent message to seller to refund it. They gave me tracking ID for http://en.4px.com/index.php?option=com_tracking4px and it is not showing any status so far.If I will receive it any how (chances are too less) I will surely let you know.There are other power banks which are available on Amazon and I borrowed one from my friend and it has small lights indicator showing level of charge. I dont remember brand name.-Adeel

I've never used the other model, so I cannot comment properly on it. Sorry. But I can day that the one I am using is pretty amazing for the size and price I paid for it. Plus, it uses the same charging plug as my Samsung Galaxy S4.

the one I got is the old SCC-100C. I lost my charger and can't use it - only used it once, a year ago! lol....guess I'll buy another, but I'll look for that new model. thanks

Hi Getpreparedstuff,Are you able to share with me the model of the solar charge controller that you use? Thanks. -David

I can't check out all the models, but I checked my own several DC18RA chargers (in different locations) bought with tools over a number of preceding (~3-4) years. They all work well and seem fast. I usually buy an additional battery and have never run out before the backup is charged. Of course, I'm not a professional user.
