Portable Solar for Camping?

[911boost]

Anyone else use any portable solar for camping? I have a small iPad sized one for back country hunting I use to keep my phone topped off.

For my travel trailer we have a generator, but I would really like to run it less. Couple that with the purchase of the bay window Westfalia, I decided to get something a little bigger to keep my batteries topped off, since it will not start with a dead battery and I haven't installed a shore one yet.

Its snowing like mad here today, so I can't test it, but I am interested in seeing how it works.

You're in Co. - find a local grower and test it under his/her lights

Seems bulkier than a portable battery like this: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01G1XH46M/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Good for 4 full charges of an iPhone 6.

Oh this is for the deep cycle batteries in my camper and the regular battery in my VW Westy.

The one I use for my phone is like this:

Not a portable system for just charging a cell phone, but if you want to reduce your reliance on a generator for RV type camping, a Mi-Grid system that we build could help.
