    I had made my own DIY solar rechargeable generator, but it was too heavy for camping / hunting. Ended up getting a Jackery 240. Seems very capable and I have four hunting buddies, each who have one.

    I have a military surplus 25 watt folding solar panel (size of a pad of paper). I just got a Rockpals 100 watt folding panel. Taking it out this weekend while hunting with a few other guys. Should keep everything powered, including lights for camp. Wondering if anyone else has used either of these.

    Just bought the Jackery 240 and 60w solar bundle from Amazon yesterday. Looking forward to playing with it. Seems solid.

    A friend has the 60w. Works great

    I have two teen girls. I went with the 100w. Plus I believe this Rockpals panel folds smaller

    Quick update. Used it last weekend while deer hunting. Friend used it to charge something for a couple hours, and dropped battery down to about 60%. We drove to a spot to glass from. I plugged the 100w panel into the Jackery and it was back up to 95% in about an hour. Not bad at all.
