Just wondered if anyone has a good piece of equipment for charging mobiles whilst camping non-EHU , apart from the car lighter?

I have a freeloader pico and TBH it's rubbish! So go for something with a bit more power than that.
I think the freeloader brand is supposed to be good but the pico just isn't big enough as even when it was fully charged from being plugged into my computer it NLT charged my iPhone 1/4.
After a few years my phone now says charging not supported by this device so no idea what's happening with it now.

A few years back we had a combined wind-up charger/torch(from Millets, I think?)...

A couple of mins winding,shoved enough in for a quick call or some texts...Not sure how much winding would be required if you intended to surf the net on your phone though...

These are quite good but you have to turn them off at 11 o'clock at night.

I'd definitely recommend the piece of kit in Brommo's post above. Took it away with me last weekend and it charged the iphone up from approx. 15% to 100% twice and still had a 75% charge left in it.
