One of the problems I have had on long bike rides is that my mobile phone runs out of battery, and I have no GPS to help me in navigation. One of the reasons my phone run out of battery time is the fact that when GPS enables the battery consumes more power.

I have recently acquired a dynamo for my bike, I went for the Tigra Bike Charger – I really looking forward to testing it out, to see if it will help me keep my mobile charged.

For housing my Samsung Galaxy III mobile phone, I opted for the Tigra BikeConsole Power Plus – next weekend I will spend time installing and test.

With the BikeCharge, all I have to do is attach the dynamo to my wheel, place the phone on the mount on the handlebar and connect the USB cable.
