...isn't this the same one that's been around for like a year now?

Cool anyway, i've been thinking about getting one but i wanna hear from someone else that has it already...

If it has the same mAh Li-ion type battery as the psp built in, then it should be able to power the psp for 4+ hours.
So does that mean you can run your psp of this and never need to turn it off as long as there is sunlight?

Im waiting for user reviews too!
Sounds good in theory...

sounds cool, but isn't it a less than awesome idea to purposely leave a videogame system in direct sunlight for four+ hours?

[Mr. Shizzy]

^^^LOL - Thats the same thing I was thinking. It might be good to keep around for an absolute emergancy- but I wouldn't use it in the direct sunlight.

4 hours must be the "Best-Case-Scenario"

ya i know, wouldn't it just be horrible to find your psp baking outside. i think this accessory was invented by a complete dumbass...

I live in the UK and got one of these a while ago.

Ive gone to work and left it on a sunny window sill all day and theres no way youre getting a full charge out of this thing.

I think the most Ive seen it manage is about 27%.

edit: you charge the charger seperately, then plug it into the psp so no worries abut baked psp.
