Hello everyone,
i have found in Internet a very interesting product to resolve the problem of our battery. As the title it is powermonkey by powertraveller, a portable charger.
The problem is that the powermonkey-eXplorer has an output Voltage from 4.5 to 5.5 V and a Max Current of 700mA.
Because of the HTC adapter is 5.5 V and 1 A, i was wondering if it would work with the diamond.
My suorce of doubt is that i don't think that the usb is able to work at that Voltage and Current.
So is there someone that has tecnical knowledges to say if it would work.
Thanks for the answers and hope to have proposed and interesting product.
Bye

I bought powermonkey explorer in the summer and I love it!
It is great for diamond, and every other device also.

If you buy one with solar charger, it isnt much of use if you dont live in sunny country or leave it charge always in car.
It was great though at Bulgaria charging my ipod, never had to use any other charger. And ofcourse you can charge powermonkey with usb or other ways.

I recommend it, even if it is little pricey.
It seems very tough and resisted some water and sand, hot weather.

I have just ordered one of these, I was going to get an extended battery, but love the way the Diamond is so thin, anyway this can also charge my PSP as well.

Will give a review once recieved

thanks... I even i'd like to know if we need for the diamond a special tip or we can use the standard miniusb that is included.
