Solar in the Orca Harness

If I am not mistaken,

E = Q x V

The USB outputs let me guess this is 10 000 mAh over 5 Volts so:

E = (10000 x 5) /1000

E = 50 Wh (theoretical maximum)

That's around 30% less than a regular NP1 but it could be useful as emergency power. You will still need to regulate the output up to 12V, which will bear a cost in efficiency. I look forward to see what you intend to do with this.

I've done extensive research into using solar to charge NP batteries in a bag. You'd need a massive solar panel in direct sunlight for it to kind of work. A small little solar cell like that is only good for charging your cell phone, and even then you need direct sunlight, which in vegas isn't really a problem.
