It is about 55-80 minutes for the laptop and around 50 hours in direct sunlight. The instructions also mention that you should charge the charger with the PC first before using the sunlight. Also, there is a temperature maximum of about 125 F as the ceiling for storing the charger. This eliminates the possibility of leaving it in a car to charge up during the summertime since the interior temperature of a car in direct sunlight can exceed 140 F.

Sorry for the late post. I got my PP box about 2.5 weeks ago. First time PP and I did get the solar charger but no golf card so I'm not sure how they are deciding. I am no longer traveling for work (for the foreseeable future) 0 nights so far in 2011 so it looks like this will be my one and only year in 2011.

Received my card about a week ago.
New to PP. No charger, no golf card. Not really bothered, but I do wonder why the different treatment. Are there distinctions w/in PP that we don't know about?

Same here on first year PP. Had to call about my card and gift. Got the card but no gift. I sent an email to MR and this is their response:
"There is a limited number of chargers and we are still checking on availability. One will be sent if available."

Finally got my card today but no charger.
I read in an earlier post in this thread that the 20% off in restaurants is explained in the brochure - where exactly? I do not see it anywhere. Also heard it was on the back of the card, but I do not see it there either.
