Why I'll stick to an external charger:
This is from back in the day, multiple years ago, but there were a fair number of cases of problems related to usb ports not having enough capacity to charge devices. Under powered wall warts going boom, people fried usb ports or boards on pcs they tried to use for charging.
If the device tries to draw more power than the usb power source can provide, there's going to be a problem. If the device draws so little current to be fine on even small wall watts it would take forever to recharge three big 18650 batteries. If the device is able to sense usb power supply capacity, cut off if it isn't high enough, usb supplies that have enough oomph to charge that 3 battery set in a reasonable period of time are likely to be few and far between.
This is entirely ignoring the charger circuit implementation aspects. Is the circuitry in the pv charging the batteries in a way that would be called good by the folks over at candlepower forums or other battery and charger savvy groups?
I would love to get one of these pv, but I would treat usb charging as a backup option, not a primary use.

PSSST, IS IT SECRET DAY TODAY??? I do not know why I am yelling. Maybe it is because today is secret day?
Oh it is still a secret, because we do not know what the prize is. So I will leave it at that.If you're yelling, it isn't really secret any more, is it?
e
If ya tell me, I won't tell anyone else
I am hoping @Vera explains it to all of us when he wakes up.
Waiting and secrets .... just like Christmas.
I became an expert at peeling the tape on packages and replacing it without detection until mom got up in the middle of the night once and asked what I was doing... told her I must be sleepwalking. For some reason, she didn't buy it
oldie but goodie.been busted but I wasn't quite an expert at replacing tape over the gapin tears I created.not subtle at all.rewrapping didn't work either.I didn't use the same paper and it never looked the same after I was done with it
OMG that was EPIC!!! Thank you for posting that. I really enjoyed watching it and will watch it again!
