[QUOTE="Yallah, post: 84488, member: 10308"] I understand your dilemma. My husband is also a professional photographer who walked the camino with his gear and laptop. Plugging in wasn't too difficult. When we got to Spain we bought a double plug so even if the plug near our bed was full, we could simply unplug the other item and plug both into the double plug. You can also strategically choose your spot in a cafe/restaurant and charge while you have a coffee or meal as well. We do have a small solar charger but didn't bring it on the camino. It has worked for us to charge cell phones and iPods but is not very effective with larger items like camera batteries and laptops. So we were not packing very light, but enjoyed taking some marvelous photos that made it all worth it. You didn't ask about luggage, but I thought I'd share anyway. :) My husband got a new photo backpack for the hike, which has a laptop sleeve and good cushioning for camera gear and enough space for personal items. It was a bit of an experiment but he was really pleased with it overall. It was a Kata Source 261. Kata bags are pricy but they have some great options of bigger backpacks that are comfortable for hiking and have camera-specific padding. Best of luck! [/QUOTE]
