A friend is headed to Patagonia this February for a 10 day walkabout and we had a conversation about camera and cell phone (camera feature) battery life. Since I do not use solar charging, I thought I would ask the group for technology suggestions regarding solar charging options. A quick search didn't find any recent technology reviews, thought that may be an issue with how the search query was made, operator error being what it is.
Since this technology seems to be rapidly changing/improving I was curious if anyone had recommendations. As I understand the route, much of it will be in the open (not much if any canopy) so a solar option seems practical. Weight at this point is less of an issue than functionality and compatibility.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts shared.
