Great input!
Have you got the radio you have been searching for? It seems really exciting to me so please provide some more information.carbinemike said:I have been looking at radios with hand crank as an option for power. Does anyone have any experience with these? The link has one that seems positive with both peimar solar and hand crank options for power. Thoughts?
Thanks for sharing short term solutions.. I am still searching for long term charging solution but still your ones will be very helpful to me.John A. said:Short term there are some options for USB charging of some devices. Especially hooked to laptops, etc.
Many (newer) DC/AC inverters also have a USB out that you can use. My little Cobra 800W inverter does and I have also seen a few inexpensive solar panels for car battery trickle chargers that also have a dedicated usb out.
But long term, USB probably won't make the cut if you don't have a way to keep the batteries charged that provide power to the USB's to begin with.
