<br>
<br>
I was looking at buying one for my recent Himalayan trip, but decided on buying a phone with a 40 day battery life instead. There were quite a few people on the trails including the local guides with solar charges for iPhones, Laptops etc... There’s quite
a few different types for sale on eBay. The more expensive laptop solar charges cost, but I would think the cheap phone solar charges available on eBay would suit your needs. <br>
<br>
The only other way is to access a diesel/petrol power generator. <br>
<br>
<br>
regards, <br>
