External solar battery.

---

Hello, I just got an external battery with solar panels that is for desire HD. I bought it from eBay.
I noticed that the output volts are 5.5. I heard that the HD will only take 5v. is 5.5v to much and it will fry my phone or its safe?

Thanks

I didn't know these existed . Could you possibly send me the link to the one you bought on eBay?

how fast is the reacharge? Is it faster?

powertraveller have universal solar chargers - max output is 300ma though doesn't charge fast at all. (if youre using the phone expect the battery % to go down still, just marginally slower than normal)

I dont think this could fry ur cell

I assume it safe with that much voltage.

Sorry for very late response lol. I forgot about the topic. I used it a bit and it's garbage. The solar panel need like 48 hours for full recharge. I guess that's what you get when you pay 15$ for it. Now I use normal recharger that I bought from China.
