I'm moving to somewhere that is without electric and also very sunny.
Anyone had any experience with solar chargers, ideally for Macbook and
iPhone but just iPhone will do for now, any recs guys?
I've tried this a lot in this country in 'high summer', sunny all day,
with mediocre results - so take it seriously. These chaps have what
looks like good kit

I've got a powergorilla and they are great for days away from leccy with
iphones etc.
The small handheld built-in solar panel stuff doesn't really cut it on
the whole but they can be useful for storing power. Often the chargers
don't provide enough for the iPhones directly. Also, it means that the
wear and tear of variable current goes on the portable battery rather
than the phone battery.
And get nitfy with airplane mode when you're not using the iPhone -- it
uses very little power when the radios (Bluetooth, wireless etc) are
off.
