Wow!

Unfortunately I can't help you but I am super interested in this. Have you seen the solar charger too?

The solar charger is cool but I can't really use it since I live in Sweden wink

i've seen versions of these at places which are for general charging needs (not nintendo specific). 

i last saw them at this store called Ollie's, which carries stuff they buy in bulk from 'last season' from other stores that don't want it, seconds, factory rejects/etc.  not sure what you call stores like that.  "Ollie's Bargain Outlet' i think is its name,

I'll check when I'm there next.  I KNOW they had them for general use, I'm not sure what the specs on it were though.  if they've still got it when i go back buy, i'll pick a few up.  most of that store is super cheap too

Cool! If some are compatible I guess you maybe could butcher an old SP charger and make an appropriate cable smile

Hi

I'm curious if anyone has had any experience with the GBA SP Mini Winding Charger? Looks like a cool and eco-friendly solution for hiking, backpacking etc.

An emergency hand-powered charger for the Gameboy Advance SP, that also doubles as a mini emergency torch. Brilliant gadget for the GBA SP player who's out and about a lot.

GBA SP Mini Winding Charger - Features:
• Wind the charger slowly by hand to recharge the GBA SP Battery
• Turn 2.5 cycles per second to generate electricity to recharge the GBA SP battery.
• 8 minutes of spinning provides up to 30 minutes of battery life (with light) and up to 45 minutes (without light)
• Using the winding charger is not advised for more than 15 minutes (potential overheating problems)
• Turn 1.5 cycles per second to generate electricity to power the emergency mini torch

Also does anyone know any place that still sells them?
