How well did it work in cloudy conditions? Does it work under tree cover? How fast would it charge a smartphone?
Edit: http://www.amazon.com/Bushnell-Bear-Grylls-SolarWrap-Charger/dp/B00AMPJNT2#customerReviews Apparently, not very well.


Even if I was in the market, I'd be tempted to pass that one over just because it's Bear Grylls branded. I actually loved his show (for entertainment value and because he seems like a really likeable guy - not for educational value), but I hate that he'll put his name on anything. Rant over.
