I was going to call them too, however as they say - A(AAAAAAAArdvark)
comes before W, and they panned out OK :-)
It was worse than that as I didn't have my solar panel with me to
recharge
the battery, so also therefore could not run my inverter to charge the
laptop
or cell 'phone. Both were just about to die, and my external wireless
modem
I had to cut the cable to and attach to a 6V torch battery, so things
were
getting a little desperate. Well, I could have gone on a hike to the
next door
neighbours I guess.
