What do you do when you're far from an outlet for several days at a time? Or put differently, how many days are you good for digitally ?
For regular touring, I use my Edge 1050, which has 20 hours fully enabled and 60 hours in battery saver mode. For more extended, more remote tours, my Edge 1040 Solar lasts around 100 hours. I usually carry a Nitecore NB20000 as a backup, and it can charge numerous devices a couple of times. For those who are really committed to complete long-term power independence, a generator hub would be a reasonable option.
