Written by Stuart Wells

The Meilis worked perfectly, reporting our locations all week on a single charge, long after our phones had run out of juice!  This was the point, yes, you can take £1000+ iPhones along with you. But good luck keeping them charged for days on end.

Even with several mobile battery banks and mini solar panels our phones were out of charge within 36 hours.

Our concept: keep your phone in airplane mode, use it for photos and videos, but let the Meilis do the hard work, tracking your route, reporting your location, keeping you connected so that if the need arises, the phone can be turned on and used as an emergency comms device. And if the the phone is out of charge, don't stress, use the FindMe/SOS button on the Meili.
