A removable solar charger is provided to charge a battery powering an electrical device, such as a mobile device. A solar panel of the removable solar charger is preferably provided on an outside face of a user-removable battery compartment cover. Charging contacts on the inside of the battery compartment cover are in electrical communication with the battery to trickle charge the battery when the cover is closed. A charge indicator can provide an indication that the device is charging the battery via the solar panel. The solar charger battery compartment cover and/or battery for a particular device can be purchased separately from the device allowing a user to retrofit a current device not originally designed for solar charging while the battery is in place. Alternatively, a new electrical device can be manufactured with the removable solar panel charger battery cover, modified battery (or other necessary components) to allow for trickle charging. |
