[pct-l] solar charger

[Drew Smith]

I've used solar chargers with adequate results on the first 650 miles of
the PCT, where the conditions are most favorable. But I've switched to
lithium rechargeable batteries as a power source. They have gotten much
lighter and cheaper. For about $20 and 6 oz, you can get a ~5K mAh battery
good for 2.5 iPhone charges. That easily lasts me a week. The Anker
products seem to be a pretty good value.
