I love hiking but I am new to backpacking- first time last weekend in Ocala National Forest, and this little device would be helpful in more ways than one, especially for emergencies. I think I need it, I know I want it! ๐
I would be the envy of all my hiking buddies!
And my answer to them? “Ya gots to know the Hiking Lady!”
๐
Planning a trip in high Sierra next summer. How awesome and prepared will I be if I win this solar charger. My iphone will be SO happy! Very cool invention.
I would love this. It’s great piece of mind to know if you need to get in contact, you can.
What a fantastic device for outdoor activities!
I am going hiking in the desert. I would love to have this charger to take along!
Got to get one of these! This would be great for camping too!
MORE POWER!
With Florida being the stomping ground of future hurricanes this year, if the power goes out, I need to charge my iPhone somehow!?! This is the solution!
I NEED one of these!! Almost got lost in the Uintas last week while hiking… took a wrong turn :/ and my phone battery had died :/
While this is awsome for the obvious reasons, emergencies while on the trail, camping, or paddling! im pretty sure the best reason to have this would be the endless hours of annoying my co-workers whith my sporatic music selection, no more will they rejoyce when my battery runs out! muahahaha
Currently deployed to Afghanistan this is perfect for long convoys! My iPhone usually doesn’t make all day this would definitely keep it charge while on patrol! Or on guard duty! Thank you hiking lady! Greeting from Afghanistan!!
I am starting a 400+mile bike ride across country in September and I use my iPhone (mounted on my handlebars) for EVERYTHING when I’m Cycling on the road (GPS, routes, music, contact, ride/weather updates) but I’ve always had trouble keeping it charged while on my long journeys. This is the answer for all my iPhone charging problems! Thanks Hiking Lady for this great chance to win such a precious piece of technology!
Wow! Seems like a very useful tool, I would like to try it!
I would love to have this!
Who knew! This is awesome!
My husband is a boy scout leader and could definitely use this for his trek leading excursions. ๐
I would love to win the solar charger. I mean seriously, can it get any better? What would I do without my phone!?
This could be a vital piece of kit in a survival situation. In fact, if I dont win, I’ll buy one!
1) I left my job for a more adventurous life camping/on the road!
2) Finding power outlets is very time consuming when surrounded by forest:)
3) Leaving for the John Muir Trail in one week.. this will ensure awesome blog posts!
Need this for my international hiking trips which would make powering up so much easier and ecofriendly!
If I had the Solar iCharge then I could keep using the RunKeeper app (for tracking route/distance/elevation gain/calories burned) for very long hikes! Right now my battery runs out after about 4 hours. Would love to be able to track longer hikes – thank you!
Enter Me!!! I don’t have an iphone but my daughter and son-in-law both do!! This would be perfect for them… and he can take it along when he is deployed!!
What a great item to have – I would love win this Hiking Lady!
I am a single mama of a 9 & 10 yr old and it charger will come in handy when we are hiking the AT in Va, PA and MD. Pick me pick me
Would great to win!!!
This would be perfect while out exploring new trails and finding fun caches
Hi! 2 years late but thank you for your hiking step tutorial…. Saved my hiney when we went to the G. Canyon. I thought I had trained well, but holy heck…. I wouldn’t have survived without practicing that. Couldn’t walk the next day ๐ but it was my adventure of a lifetime!
It would come in handy to Recharge a cell Phone when hiking Philmont.
would be great for my geocaching escapades!
This would offer me a little peace on the trail. Knowing I might be able to use my phone on a peak or get a map.
I would be more confident and assurred as a hiker because my phone would be charged all the time to provide me with 24/7 access to help if I needed it. I like Hiking Lady because it provides a woman’s perspective to all things hiking and most blogs are by men. Thanks for the opportunity to enter.
I would LOVE to win this! It would be super useful. ๐
I’ve been thinking about trying a solar charger. I have a Zagg I use for traveling, but it weighs a hundred pounds (ok maybe a little exaggeration :). Looks awesome & would look even more awesome on my iPhone!!
The Solar iCharge would be a great addition to my backpack!
I could really use this neat gadget, planning a pre-hiking trip soon, before my fiance and I go for a long trip through Alaska for our honeymoon! its been in the making for years, and this little helper would make everything that much easier!
fingers crossed!
I could really use the Solar iCharge to Stay Powered on or off trail because I am a childcare provider, and cannot afford to be without my phone in the event of emergency. Because of this fact, I also have thousands of Facebook/social media friends I can share the benefits of this device with!;)
As a Girl Scout staff member, I would love the iCharge! It would a great way to teach Girl Scouts about solar power! ๐
Wow, that’s Awesome! not just for hiking, but all the time! I work outside a lot and my phone is always dying on me! why didn’t i ever think of a solar charger?
I would love to win the Icharge!
I’d be pretty stoked about this, I’m always running low on power.
Wow, what a cool thing to have! Pick me, please! ๐
Gearing up for some major trekking. Thanks for your site, the Solar iCharge info and this contest!
What a great idea. I wouldn’t have to haul batteries around on a wagon anymore!
I didn’t get the GPS gene when I was born, hence I lose my jeep on parking lots and get confused when hiking poorly marked trails. Just yesterday I used the map feature on my phone to figure out where I was after making a wrong turn. Using my phone map increases my safety on the trail. Having a solar charger would be awesome!
Pretty please? =)
The portability of this charger would def be handy to have on trail while hiking, on the cliffside rock climbing, or on frozen waterfalls while ice climbing! Thanks for the the contest Hiking Lady!
Considering going on a mission trip to Indonesia and this would be a great essential to pack!
This is fantastic, thank you Hiking Lady for this great contest! I’ve always wanted to be able to use my iPhone compass on the trail just for fun, and now it can be done. Huzzah!
OMG, that is So Cool, I “Must Have” this Solar iCharge because I use my iPhone a lot to take pics, Twitter, & FB!
Hiking Lady is the BEST, I love the Blog!
mmm don’t know if I want to be able to charge my iphone in the bush, then I have no excuses for why they couldn’t contact me lol
Yes, I too would love this solar charger. I mostly use my iPhone to make tracks. I love hiking & being around nature even if it’s only in my own backyard.
This will help a lot. Hope we hike somewhere that has cell service!
This would be pretty cool to have while out on the trail. I take a lot of photos with my iPhone, and this would really help extend the life of the phone, and then maybe help me save my own life or somebody else needed something. Solvitur-ambulando.
It will be very useful when I go hiking. I wish I can win:)
This is awesome! I would love a Solar iCharge for when I’m out hiking, backpacking and/or camping with my sons & their Boy Scout Troop. Thanks!!
This would be great while we are out and on the trail. I’m constantly looking for ways to extend the life of my iPhone.
Not only for the backpack, could use it on a sunny window at home too ๐
I would love to win a solar charger. Thanks for the invite.
The Solar Icharge would just save my life! Please enter me.
Solar energy for powering iPhones! Awesome!
Would love to try this out on my outdoor rambls!
Love to hike!
I am an volunteer Search and Rescue K9 Handler everything comes out of my own pocket for training. Would love to have this in my pack for searches for me and my K9.
This would be perfect for Scout camping…

This would make my hikes complete!! I could post all the awesome hiking pics as I take them!!!!Please please please pick me!!!!’
This would be an awesome “Must have” in my backpack. Please enter me!

What hiker doesn’t need one of those? Not me! I need it!!
I just borrowed a friend’s solar charger and it helped me get to my email and to a job offer while I was sea kayaking in Maine!
something i really need , many thanks ๐
What a great product to have to be able to stay connected while on multiday outings where you don’t have access to a traditional wall outlet.
That looks really sexy!
I’m a member of a totally volunteer Search and Rescue organization (501(c)3), and this would be a really valuable addition to my backpack in emergency situations when run-down batteries could contribute to critical outcomes. Thanks for the chance to enter this contest.
The Solar iCharge case could certainly brighten up my day!
Please entr me in the contest too!
Thanks much
