IPad.....GV-CH800S solar charger...?
I recently bought the GV-CH800S portable solar charger, so that I could use it to charge my IPad during a month long trip to Chennai, India that I'm going on.
I've read the output of the device (which is 5.5v -+ 2v) and compared it to the output of my IPad's power adapter charger (5.1v), so in the voltage isn't too low for the IPad to use to charge.

However when I use the solar charger to charge my IPad, the IPad says "not charging" next to the battery symbol, which is also the problem I have when trying to charge my IPad with my laptop ( my laptop is nearly 4 years old, and i read that the reason why my laptop can't charge my IPad is because my USB port doesn't supply enough power...)

Has anyone else had this problem?
Does anyone know how to sort this problem?
