Solar chargers for back packs. What are some good options?

I am looking at going to watch the solar eclipse so I may aswell make a weekend out of it.

This, no point in getting a solar charger unless you plan on isolating yourself from society for a week or longer

Why not? Mine has offline maps in it and GPS so I can see where I am, and record my trails. (And see distance, speed, and whatnot)

Stop being a dumbass. Why wouldn't you want another navigational aid? There's more to the outdoors than bushsurvivalmemeing

Use a compass, get a monocular.

Use a compass.

Man I thought Americans were renowned for their logistics, but apparently they aren't so good when a CO isn't pointing a gun to their heads.

I'd have both a compass/map and a phone/gps, dumbass. Having more means to navigate is smart. Not American either.

I have a compass too, it's always with me. I don't usually carry the monocular, though have one. I find it rather useless. Binoculars are more useful.

I like to mark my path to a map and mark points of interest (like: running water/spring, ancient glacial seashore, good place for tent). This is harder to do with a paper (tyvek) map, but could be done, why not.

And I have the map with me too, usually. I use tyvek maps so rain/water and some wear and tear mean nothing.

Everyone seems insistent on giving alternative advice without touching the only question you even asked. To answer your question, Anker makes solid solar chargers and battery packs. I have an Anker charger myself, it's breddy gud.

Ankers are nice. But to be honest, I just use a 10,000 mAH battery pack. It's light, and if I keep my phone in airplane mode most of the time I can use it to keep my phone charged for days, even if I'm using the speakers to listen to music.

It's not even "innawoods". Hopkinsville (the town highlighted in OP's pic) is smack in the middle of east Kentucky farm country.

I live in Clarksville and this whole thing is a clusterfuck. They're expecting tens of thousands of people. In Hopkinsville people are trying to rent out rooms for insane money because there's basically no lodging up there.
