The option for the hiMD is great with those solar packs but walking through
the tundra with a 50lb unit for the 722 Is a wee bit to much.............

We could run our HiMD recorders continuously on a 14" X14" solar
panel and be charged for over night too. The high capacity packs for
the 722 would take a while to fully charge with portable solar
charging technology. Here's a 50 lb, $370 Solar System 400 Portable
Power Pack that has " over 2A of charging current,.. or 270 watts/day
of charging power."
