12v charging - Highlander - 8 December 2012
This is not for me, I am not clever enough, but I think that there are a few of you here that might find this interesting

RE: 12v charging - BeardyMan - 10 December 2012
I've just ordered:

and

I think I'm about to order another of the above too, not sure yet though.
Tafforce from P2S had a very similar set up on a recent RV. Seemed to power quite a bit and kept going for the weekend.
When it arrives and I've had a proper play with it I'll whack up a review. I'm hoping it'll keep the baofeng charged, and AA/AAA's etc.
I know neither the battery nor the solar panel provide huge voltage or AHs, but it should be fine for camping etc. Light enough to carry too.
