When it's stated that it's rechargeable, does that mean you need to purchase a separate charger or is it charged by the sun? Thanks

if the item you are replacing the battery in is "solar powered" they use the sun to recharge in the item you put them in - i have them in solar lighting out back and they recharge in the item using the sun and the "solar panel" in the item. You cannot charge these in an item that does not have a solar panel on it though. So using them for some regular item, you would need to buy a charger to recharge them

I am replacing batteries that read 1.2 volts,are these the same or comparable?

I have a class 2 battey charger by energizer, Is it safe to recharge the l.5 volt solar battery on this type of charger?

Assuming what you are installing them in has a solar charger, it should charge the batteries.

The batteries were charged when I received them. I've been using 8 of the batteries since reception and they work very good. I recommend them toanyone. Good product.

If the device you have them in has a recharger that is powered by the sun then you answer is most likely yes.

Bruno, thanks for the question. This unit up is solar powered and it has its own vendor supplied rechargeable battery.

You are right it drains more then charges, that's why I wouldn't buy one. When the sun is shining bright it charges but when the sun changes angles and the light is less it discharges so if you do not disconnect it approaching evening it will discharge and in the morning it will be low or dead.

needs recharged (either through sun or electricity) each time you draw it down by charging applicable devices.

It doesn't charge phone from sun. It charges 2 AA batteries and those batteries in turn will charge your phone. And it takes a while...

I have only had to use it a few times so far, but even out of the sun it appears to charge as long as the power cell has some juice stored in it. I would suggest contacting the manufacturer to be sure, especially if you really need to rely on it for a longer trip.

To my knowledge it is NOT rechargeable. That is why you need to purchase additional batteries. Their customer service is FANTASTIC, so just call them and make sure that what I told you is correct.

The charger unit does not store the suns energy so it does need to be in the sun and plugged in to your phone in order to charge your phone.

It charges things that can be plugged in with a usb but you don't have to just charge it in the sun you can also plug it in to charge it

If there is an AC charger then I didn't get it and I have no idea where you would plug it in. I am under the impression that it is only a solar powered light. It has a small PV panel on the top that collects the sun and stores it. THat is how you charge this. IT is an incredible little light.

I had also left it overnight charging when I first got it. It completely got a full charge. What happened to me the time I had to solar charge it was that the button on the side I had it set to charge instead of off and it took a while to charge it...however it's a great device to have. It last a long time once you use it. You can charge a couple of things before you need to charge it again.

I'm not sure but I believe it can only be charged electrically. I attempted to charge mine in the sun but it didn't charge.

The battery can be recharged but I don't know how long the charge will last. However, since the light is only on for about 10 seconds I believe it will last for quite some time with moderate traffic (on/off frequency). Furthermore, since the charging panel is detachable so you can place it separately from the lamp, in a location where it perhaps will get some sun light. The panel I have is only getting direct sunlight for about 1 hour per day and this is enough for the battery to stay charged.

It is charged by light. Best is sunlight. There is also a car/truck charger provided.

I just leave it with it with the solar cells up when I am not using it and it has never sun out of charge. I love mine!!

If you mean for recharging the pack, no, you cannot. This will charge via the sun, or via the USB port. Now, if you want to power a wireless charging pad with this, and the charging pad has a USB input, you can do that, so long as the charging pad requires less than 1A of current.

I did not receive a solar charger with mine. I think it means that if you are using a solar charger, not that it has built-in solar capability.
