Power solution in wilderness

Hi

I have spend some days in the nature with my recording equipments without
any possibilities for recharging. So I have looked for some external
batteries that will give me higher capacity.
Before I do any mistakes ordering some useless crap, I like to ask other
recordists what solutions they have in this situation. It must power up
SD744 and SD522. I have already changed the hard disk to SSD in the SD744
to safe energy. The power must last for 30 hours of recording or more.
I know and I think I can buy some solutions used in the film industry but I
think also I can find something else as efficient and much cheaper.

I have looked on 14 volt battery packs like this one:

...and some charger like this one:

I have also looked for some foldable solar panels (4-10W) to expand the
lifespan in the wilderness.

If you guys know of some more clever solutions or have some experience of
power solutions, please let me know.
( I don't like or have a car to run, just to charge battery. I was the
solution of last century ).
