Solar USB Charger - Results

I'll keep this short and sweet :)

I have put all the components into a case and done a days testing in the patchy cloudy day.

Full sun - 4.7 volts @ 197 milliamp   WOOT!

Part shade - 4.7 volts @ 50-90 milliamp less woot

Shade - 2 - 4.7 volts @ 10 or less milliamp. Not worth mentioning

The charger hasn't done the 2000mA battery full but I tested my mp3 player and my mobile phone both were very happy to charge off it.

Phone reported 130mA coming through the charger (Android phones rock)
