Make your projects to go green this summer with our specialized USB/Solar Lithium Ion Polymer Battery charger! This charger is a very unique design, perfect for outdoor projects, or DIY iPod chargers. We've spent over a year testing and tinkering with this charger to come up with a plug and play solution to charging batteries with the sun and we're really pleased with what we ended up with.
Easy to use! Pick up any of our many 3.7V/4.2V LiIon batteries, and a 6V solar panel. Plug the battery into the BATT port using a 2-pin JST cable and the solar panel into the DC jack using a 2.1mm terminal block adapter. Put the solar panel outside (and keep the battery out of the sun, it needs to be kept cool!) to start charging. You can power another project like a Mintyboost at the same time by connecting to the LOAD output port
Our carefully designed charger is designed specifically for solar charging, and will automatically draw the most current possible from the panel in any light condition!
Even thought it isn't a 'true' MPPT (max power point tracker), it has near-identical performance without the additional cost of a buck-converter. Our detailed tutorial on how to use this charger includes a design document explaining how it all works.
For use with Adafruit Lipoly/LiIon batteries only! Other batteries may have different voltage, chemistry, polarity or pinout.
Comes with an assembled charger board, a 2-pin JST cable that will fit into either the BATT or LOAD ports, and a large stabilization capacitor that must be installed in your finished project. Does not come with a Lipoly battery or solar panel but we do have tons available in the shop that work quite well. We have updated the design to be a little more compact, have nicer mounting holes, and a 2.1mm DC jack

Poncho of Happiness
This was everything I hoped it would be. So comfy and warm. I like that there are a couple snap buttons to hold it together. I’m 5”11 and it goes down to my knees so I was pleasantly surprised with that. And I love the pockets! Quality wasn’t ruined after being washed either.

Great blanket
Size: Twin(60" x 80"), Color: Tie-dye Coffee
Luxurious look. It’s a soft faux fur on the top, with a beautiful and subtle variegated pattern that adds to the lifelike appearance. The inside of the blanket has a velvet feel and creates a cozy vibe. The blanket is a great size. It is well made with quality material with just the right amount of weight to help me relax and fall asleep.

Love it so much I got a second one
Size: Throw(51" x 63"), Color: Navy Blue, Size: Throw(51" x 63"), Color: Navy Blue
This blanket is perfect for snuggling. The throw size is perfect for napping or relaxing. It’s unbelievably soft. Faux rabbit fur is how I’d describe it. The color is perfect and consistent. It’s got great weight to it. It definitely has the power of nap inducement. My kids keep trying to steal it when they watch movies with me so I got a second because I’m not sharing! I’d get it in king size if they made it that big. Quality is amazing. It’s basically double layered with the top being the fluffy, bubble side and the other is a smooth yet still soft underside. It’s worth every penny and if you see it on a deal - DO NOT WAIT! Pull it out of the box and prepare to luxuriate beneath this deliciously soft and warm blanket. You DO need it!

This is a nice, thick faux fur blanket. I drape it over my recliner. Now I have a throne fit for Conan the Barbarian. Washed well. Feels soft and warm. This blanket could be used as a throne cover or a bedspread. Beautiful!
