Does any one know of a dynamo charger for charging a phone, camera, or batteries etc...

I was thinking about it the other day, as I am doing the End to End and it could be useful to charge my phone, GPS, satnav, camera etc...

I was looking at one of them in maplins, i am not 100% sure about them, because you are noe ment to use them in the rain...

Do you recon one could be made waterproof?

Seems like something does exist, and can run off a decent hub dynamo (way less drag, and you can run really good lights off them too)
