hi guys i was thinking abut battery problem that we are having with N900 the other problem buying Mugen Power Batteries will make yor N900 super FAT.. so why don't some one can make solar panel (back cover for N900 which will charge battery continues and i dont think that will add too much thickness to N900.
** if u guys have any suggestions or ideas pleas let me know .
2morrow i m going to Fry's and buy solar panel and make some thing that we can stick on back cover OR modifies back cover with solar panel .

The other likely issue is that of leaving your N900 in the sun means it is ikely to cook too. Also the area presented by the N900 for a solar cell is tiny and unlikely to produce much usable energy.

u don't have to leave yor phone out for other ppl.. its would be easy access to charging anywhere u go .. that way u don't have to worry abut battery.. look at Samsung earth phone .

I've been thinking about this too, but i've decided to stick the panel into a casette tape case and add a usb socket..
I didn't want it on the back because it will be hard to use while trying to point at the sun.

Personal opinion, i think the extra weight of a casette tape case and usb lead for portable charging is better than cooking and leaving my n900 on show..

Nah, why buy when you have the parts (and prob better quality panels) to make it.. plus most portable chargers limit current to 500mA while n900 can handle up to 1200mA

Right anyway, I'll get out of this thread cuz i'm not really helping

Y u all think that u need to have ur N900 under direct sunlight for the solar charging panel to charge. It will charge where there is light no need to put it under direct light.
