I rarely find myself in situations where I need to use a portable power charger for my iPhone, but I still carry one when traveling. I worry about my MacBook the most, and that's where I use the power bank most of the time. Power outages are another scenario where a power bank might come in handy.
I have considered solar power chargers in the past before deciding I didn't need them. I wouldn't be out in the sun that much to require such abilities from my power bank, nor would I be without power for extended periods.
In retrospect, it was a good choice. It turns out that solar-powered phone chargers aren't the best idea right now, even if you're trying to save the environment. Testing from ZDNet has shown these chargers aren't efficient enough. Moreover, they tend to overheat while in use.
