We have that battery in our camping gear for my wife's CPAP machine. It weighs 23 pounds. It's not hatefully heavy to deal with.

We started camping w/ a battery this summer and I'm definitely going to add solar charging. For me, the allure is to have the battery charging silently, and while we're away from the campsite.

Try this battery instead, if you want something lighter and more portable:

I used it while camping for the eclipse, and only had to charge it once every few days, and that was with charging all sorts of other devices as well.
