For the stuff you have listed:

use 20oz soda bottle instead of msr thingy for alcohol
bounce all those chargers and solar panel
gps is not necessary, carry the maps and Companion/Wingfoot instead
green laser?!?
finger light?!?

Since you said this is an incomplete list, I'm not going to comment on the many missing items...don't forget the sunscreen, though...

See you on the trail,

The solar panel is a coleman exponent flex 5
http://www.21st-century-goods.com/page/21st/PROD/COLFLEX5
it has a cigarette lighter plug coming off of it

using an igo adapter from that, which fits my cell, and batt charger and anything else i need it to fit

i have a 110ac to cigarette lighter adapter in my bounce box for charging in town

the batt charger is just a 4AAA/AA charger from walmart

don't expect the solar panel to work on the AT

[reddog176]

i have no problems with it in very moderate sunlight
i also have had no problems with it on the sections of the AT here, PA
