Solar chargers seem to have a battery attached and lots of different connectors. Simply charge the battery and plug it into your phone...Should fully re-charge you cell in a short time. Unplug and recharge the battery on the solar charger. Cell phone is detached and ready to go.
None really work as advertised. They are very slow to charge in even bright equatorial sunlight. I have been disappointed with every major model currently for sale.
