If you look at what they stated it takes one to two days solar time to charge the storage battery. The storage battery will fully charge 5 camera batteries.

Going by the specs the inverter weighs 544gram, the solar panel 726gram making an all-up weight of 1.27Kg not counting the weight of the actual battery charger.
My EN-EL15 battery weights 79gram, so I could carry more than 16 batteries for the same weight as the solar kit plus charger. Also realistically you are looking at it taking 2 days to charge each battery.
If I was going up the Amazon on a 6 month safari then the solar kit might make some sense, but for a 1 week climbing trip??
That may well be true but if I had a choice of climbing with a couple of 3oz. batteries or a 3lb solar charging outfit I know which I would prefer.If you look at what they stated it takes one to two days solar time to charge the storage battery.
