You've almost certainly seen potential juicejacking systems: those 'charge your mobile phone here' kiosks that can be found in shopping centres, airports, hotel lobbies and more.

Nope.

But you don't get out much.

I'm safe, my phone still plugs into a BT socket.

As an alternative, you could take your own portable power source http://www.solartechnology.co.uk/freeloader-solar-chargers.htm

Or you could wait till Aldi do their version for £12.99 - it works!

I have my own portable power source.  It's called a car cigarette lighter socket. 

[Rik]

There's that too.
