Will be going on wilderness back pack trip and am taking a 90d and 1DX Mll anybody know of a good light weight solar pannel for charging batteries?

Do you have the 12 V car charger already? How many Amps do they take?

Linocell 20W solar panel (842 gram) took 2h and 10 minutes to charge my old LP-E6 from 25% to 90%. The panel was behind a window during morning light. For charger I used Jupio Duo-charger (USB).

This will not work for your 1D X II.

First up, you might want to check out the Anker PowerPort Solar. It's known for its efficiency and portability, making it a popular choice among outdoor enthusiasts. Another option worth considering is the Goal Zero Nomad series, which offers reliable solar charging capabilities. Now, besides solar panels, have you ever heard of Home Energy Storage System? These systems, like the Tesla Powerwall or LG Chem RESU, are designed to store excess energy from renewable sources, such as solar panels. They can be a great investment if you're looking for long-term power backup at home.

It's always great to see folks exploring the outdoors and capturing moments with cameras like the 90D and 1DX Mll. I hope your wilderness trip was a memorable one, filled with stunning photos and great memories!

Hey there! I've been on a few wilderness backpacking trips with my Canon 90D, so I totally get the need for a lightweight, reliable solar panel to keep those batteries charged.

Some Great Options

1. Goal Zero Nomad Series: These are super sturdy and dependable. The Nomad 10 or 20 would be perfect for your needs—nice and compact for a backpack.

2. Anker PowerPort Solar: This one’s great because it’s lightweight and foldable, plus it charges pretty efficiently. Definitely a solid choice!

3. RAVPower Solar Charger: They have a 24W model that’s pretty popular among hikers. It’s compact and gets the job done quickly.

4. BigBlue 28W Solar Charger: Another awesome option with plenty of power to charge multiple devices at once. It’s still light enough to carry around easily.

By the way, have you ever heard of residential energy storage? It's a cool concept for storing extra energy from solar panels at home. Check out brands like Tesla Powerwall or LG Chem if you’re curious—they’re pretty innovative!
