If you have access to [[electrical:shore_power|normal wall power]] at home, work, etc, it may be easier to charge from a [[https://amzn.to/39LmIH5|"wall wart" usb charger]] there, or charge a small [[https://amzn.to/3cDvb0C|usb power brick]] you can use to charge the phone later.

If you do use one, be aware that heat (as from the sun) is not good for battery life. If you use one of these try to limit the amount of heat they experience. If you are charging a phone from the device while solar charging try to keep the phone completely out of the sun to avoid heat damage to the phone. \\ Being behind windshield glass will reduce power harvest by about 50%, so place them outdoors if possible. | [[https://amzn.to/3dADABt|Solar USB chargers]] can free you from wall power but are more expensive and typically low-powered.
