[pct-l] SOLAR chargers including Solio ???????

[Yoshihiro Murakami]

My powerfilm was broken in the first stage of JMT. I could not  use
battetries abundantly. This was a second journey of JMT. I coulld save
batteres , because I remembered every trail. There might be some
reliability problem  in the pwerfilm. This might be limited to  my own
device. but my device was broken. So, I cannot recommend the
powerfilm. I will search more reliable device. --- I met JMT Reinhold,
and  drunk coffee with him on the trail. Now, l am in Lone Pine,
enjoying zero days. Thanks for  American hikers.
