Which one is good for a gameboy pocket?

just steal one from a solar powered lamp lol

[argelfraster]

These are cheaper...

[joeyjoe9876]

so

Actually, used lamps may be cheaper, plus the contain other goodies.
I would use one of these. One would be good enough if you're using it to charge batteries. If you want it to run completely off solar power (with no battery, or a very small one), you'll want two to be safe.

So if I get a whole bunch of those, can I power my DS!?!?!?

Or, if I got around 70 trillion of them, could I power a 360!?

Shouldn't take very many to power a DS, after all, it's already handheld.

You'd need closer in the range of thousands to power a 360, 70 trillion gets you 12 V 700,000,000,000 Amps, and the 360 obviously does not draw anywhere near that much.

Yeah, but, it still draws a lot. And when you turn that thing on, you can hear it! It's almost as bad as turning on an old computer.

I might actually try that with a DS. As soon as I get some money...

But still, 700 billion amps?

I s'pose I got a little carried away.... But then, so did Bill Gates and his Video Game Department.
