The panel itself is made from a base pcb (glassfiber+epoxy) and covered in epoxy. I would say it is pretty durable and if you manage to make some scratches you have about 1mm of epoxy before you reach the photovoltaic cell, so safe to polish.
Should be fine. Would worry more about the front of your phone

excuse me bro dirkvl, what is the base made of? because as I can see it, it looked like, it made of styrofoam.
Sorry if I'm wrong, but the picture gives the impression of that material

my webshop does not allow for a lot of different payment methods, what do you need? you can always mail me if you have this kind of issues.

I don't think a SolarTOH is very useful to me.
1) it's on the back. My phone is usually facing up, on my bars with mapping running or in a bag keeping dry. It'd not get any charge.
2) I'm always moving so keeping it facing sunlight would be tricky. Also, northern Europe so not exactly guaranteed sunshine.
3) It's too small to generate enough power compared to hub generators or much larger solar panels. I use a hub generator - 6v 3w at average cycling speed which feeds a buffer battery and then delivers USB 5v.
4) You'd have to leave the phone out in the open for hours to charge which generally isn't something you want to do with expensive kit on campsites or whatever.
What I need is a mega efficient transparent solar panel on the front of the phone so you could have it face up and using it.
- use like 6 flex solar cells
http://www.flexsolarcells.com/index_...le-MPT6-75.php
- normally used as screen protector
- when you want to charge phone, unroll them and put on the sun
- depending on numer of cells you get like 300mA charging current
- the TOH is used to attach cells and for charging pins
But still dirk's solar TOH could be very useful for me if Jolla had proper charging support. Btw one more problem with solar TOH: if you want to use camera and TOH is charging, the GUI is very frozen...
