Re: Charging Non Solar USB Battery Banks With Solar
If you are only wanting to use it to charge a phone or similar at night I have just used a 4 panel solar charger to charge up a high power battery pack by hanging it on my bag whilst out walking. Over about 8 hours it was enough to top the battery pack back up to full power. Each night I charged my ...

Re: My trip to France
Simon, that looks amazing, and thank you for pushing on with the posting in spite of the formatting difficulties. - interesting about the tent taking up less space, I wouldn't have expected that, though quicker because you don't need to look for trees, yes, that makes sense. - how did you find slee...

Re: My trip to France
Thanks for sharing it with us Simon, that looks fantastic. I'd be topping up on some of the local falling over juice as well as the water but that probably says more about me. :roll: I admire your not over packing of the bag, I'm a bugger for it. :oops: I used to get away with it when I was younger...

My trip to France
Ok so following some issues with this site keep giving me errors i've written it up and exported it as a series of pictures. It has allowed me to condense my other pictures in as well.

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 5.
Type it into word or copy it as in cut copy and paste incase the forum plays silly beggers You can't copy and paste as you will get the error message even faster. I've also tried writing a few lines and saving it as a draft it goes to the error page. Tried about half a dozen times over the weekend....

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 5.
Joined the union during my lunch break today. It’s something I’ve been meaning to do ever since I started working in my current job.
