As for the power from the sun, a good sunny day delivers approximately 1.000 watts per meterē, so you can do the maths on what panel you need
Out of couriosity, I just looked up such a device. Intrestingly enough, I just donīt find one which looks satisfying.

Junk:

and so on, including most of the crap on ebay.

What I would have desired to find, would be something like the Philips Power2Go with solar cells.

Seems I was wrong in guessing such a device would simply be found.

If you want something real, you have to pay for it - as usual. And for now, I did not find a solar battery charger I would consider for under 100 €uros - more likely the double. Which does indeed fit - there are photovoltaic cells with about 3 percent efficiency - usally the ones on devices already too small, as to say, crap - and there are ones with 30 to 50 percent. The later used on your neighbors house . The difference lies in price and in availabilty (read: price )

Seems OK:
