Do these things work effectively??
I read an article once that reckoned while the solar panel did actually charge the battery it would take years for it actually to fully charge a flat battery.
Any specs on the one you are going to get?

It would take years to charge a flat battery. They only keep up with items that might drain a fully charged battery, eg the clock  over a long period of standing 5-6 weeks as mine is.
