I should have asked you to define cheap, as I think the Goal Zero, while the right answer, is not cheap. Obviously Bonavox does, but all that matters is this: what do you think is cheap? What's your actual budget for this?
Contact bcf1963 and ask if the $20 chargers that sit on the dash of a vehicle, and supposedly trickle charge it, would work for you. Who knows? Maybe the weak 12 volts out of that unit will work directly into the 5V input of your phone.
By the way, do you have an iPhone, meaning there is no manufacturer-approved way to charge your phone from 12 volts? IIRC, all the car chargers, even in the Apple store, are not made by Apple.
Ernie, you don't know me well enough lol, I ignored "Mitch's" (sorry Paul lol) request for cheap. Cheapness requires more money spent in the future. Just reference 3pedalmini's signature!
