Here is a news release http://sanyo.com/news/2009/08/05-1.html .

If you wade through the specs, you’ll see that it seems to have a 5 watt-hour battery, and the claim is that it will charge in 3 days, or 1.5 days with the double unit. I’ll be generous and say they allowed 5 hours of sun per day – that’s 320 mW of power. That’s about 1/100 of what you would normally use to charge a laptop. I would say the laptop would never charge, because mere losses in the charger would be more than the Eneloop could supply.
