Very good idea ,I try to charge an iPod touch using an iPod classic charger
and it didn't work
I found your tutorial and saved £20

Good to hear it helps on budget

Used the same circuit, but with solar panel for my ipod touch 1st generation and did not work.  Multi-meter reads 5v output.  Any suggestions?

 Does your solar panel put out enough current (ma)? If it does not have enough, the voltage drops when the load is connected.

Add a 5.5v supercap so that the system will have some reserve current. You will need a diode, preferably a low dropout one to maximize efficiency.

Can u use a ac adapter 5 volt instead dc and can u use any resistors

[Gokhan]

No you can not use an AC adapter

[Chromatica]

If you do, you need to ad a rectifier

Thanks for that, I didn't have 150K, 100K worked fine. Next I have to get it hooked up to solar power.

me too :) , but i dont have time, let me know if you do yours before me , :D than i will se some results:D or just pictures
