[pct-l] solar charger

Yep, batteries usual win over the panels if you will have access to charging. I used a solar panel on the deck of my kayak for a two month expedition with great success, but once I started hiking I left it behind and carried a battery instead.

Having first tried solar for backpacking fifteen years ago I find I'm still saying "someday that will be really cool, but not quite yet".
