In March i'll be camping for a couple of days and we all know that the iPhone batteries will NOT last two days, so I was just wondering if there was anyway I would be able to charge my iphone whilst camping, either wirelessly or by battery power?

If anyone can help me i'll give ya something perdy.

However you could just take the common sense approach (dont mean to sound harsh), if you're camping for 3 days why not just keep your phone turned off for the duration. Camping's a very social and active thing you don't need to be playing on apps, texting/ringing people etc other than every few hours or so. I generally stick to that when camping and if worst comes to the worst I have a phone charger which works from AA Batteries, which is sufficient to make a few phone calls :)

If you're taking a car with you though, get some in-car chargers, much better :)

I won't be using it during the day(unless to text a friend or something), I'll just be using it to watch like a film or something on a night before I go to sleep. I'll just need it for a back-up or to charge it on a night so that might be sufficient for what I need it for. I was thinking about speakers which charge up as you use them?

I'd say you'd be better buying a cheap nokia or something for £10 that lasts for weeks, instead of taking your iphone. That way you don't have to worry about losing it as much as an iphone as well.

The Nokia 1100 has a massive battery life.
