Graham M asked:

I got a Freeloader Solar Charger( http://ivory.vnunet.com/images/hardware/solar-technology/solar-technology-freeloader/large.jpg ) a while back to help keep my mobile phones and mp3 players topped up. turns out it just isnt as effective as I had hoped. it takes hours of the small panels being in the sun to provide me with a little juice for ONE device of my choice. I want something more. I was thinking about a large solar panel for my bedroom window. Can anyone give me advice and how to do it?. I was thinking of this(but please correct me as I know it probably isnt the best and also tell me how I could do it)

A solar panel on my window connected to a larger battery(car battery perhaps) then have some kind of extention lead(kind of like this - http://www.homespare.com/pictures/thumb/2444LOOSE.jpg ) so that I could plug my chargers into.

Would that work? If so, how could I properly do it

OR

Can you suggest a better way?

Please help and thank you!
