It was a Finnish company. no problem, Hendrik at Hiking Finland had an interesting Solar charger report a while ago, but I cannot find it at the moment. It was a Finnish company.

All I can suggest is scanning the pictures on Euro plug converters and trying to see if any use the standard two-pin plug that goes into a charger! I'd like to find a supplier myself, in case the current one fails...

The weight of 340 grams quoted actually includes the carry strap and the padded shoulder piece - without them it's 228 grams. I'd <em>not</em> recommend the "Plus" version since it's a lot less waterproof (it's "plus" padding and minus the zip closure!). The original, <a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/IPOD-SHUFFLE-2-PIN-EURO-TRAVEL-CHARGER-CHEAP-UK_W0QQitemZ200364942423QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CE_MP3Access_RL?hash=item2ea6ae6457" rel="nofollow">single USB charger</a> came from <a href="http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/feelinfunkie/" rel="nofollow">feelinfunkie</a> on ebay. Though I'd highly recommend a double-outlet version if you have two USB-chargeable things of course (mine was from an <a href="http://www.orangeaccessories.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">Orange</a> shop. The handy little converter that I used on the Canon charger... to my frustration I can't find any record of it! I have all the old emails from ebay, for everything else I've ever bought it seems - just not that. I've also not added them to my favourite sellers. I've searched the listings (for "USB euro charger" - which is what it came with) to no avail. I've found a battery charger that looks promising and have contacted the seller - I'll let you know if I can turn up something similar! Really glad you enjoyed them Roger :)

Dave, I am particularly interested in your charging solutions. I liked the EU plug you attached to the camera battery charger. Where did you get it? I am also a ipod user and am very interested in your lightweight USB charger. The name of the ebay seller? Do you know the actual name of the ortleib camera bag?
