No connection for RAZR

I loved the product, but it does not come with the RAZR attachment for a cellphone.. I have not been able to find one, and if I did, then raises the price alote... Otherwise the concept is very good
Wonderful product if it fits your phone,

Pros:
Compact, LED light can be used as mini flash ligh, Lightweight
Cons:
cranking speed needs to be just right, Will not fit many phones
Best Uses:
Backpacking, Hiking, Traveling
When I was able to try it out on a phone that it fit, and after I got the cranking speed just right, it seemed to charge the phone. Slowly, but better than a dead battery
