    I'm going to Oxegen this wknd and to make my battery last longer I turn off everything like bluetooth, wifi obviously, 3g and cellular data I find it makes a big difference...

    I picked one up on eBay that stooped working soon after, on the look out for something reliable still.

    This is exactly what I done last year with electric picnic. Got my e51 out. Turned off the 3g. Battery lasted all weekend. It was great.

    Did not have to worry about battery going dead, Charging it and getting ripped of to do so, or losing it. While I got drunk, dancing etc.

    Go on give up internet access for the weekend lads :)

    Although the oxygen app is good and the solar charger will help. But still that fear of losing it. I would just not be comfortable.
