On this subject, should we be devoting time to some simple solar cookers? If not for anything other than keeping donated food warm or re-heating? I'd also love to see it expanded to slow cooking rice, lentils, beans, etc. I know Sage said he had some experience with this.<br>

Yes!<br>
I personally would love it if we could move toward this solution,<br>
where the batteries don't have to move and they always stay charged<br>
thanks to the sun shining.<br>
We just need some more of the right kind of panels outfitted with<br>
mppt solar charge controllers, etc.<br>
I talked to someone who's supposed to send me contact info for OccupyLA<br>
which is supposed to have an extensive solar power infrastructure.<br>

Do we think we can come up with a solution where the sneaker-net'ing of<br>
those really light and non-fragile batteries doesn't need to be done?<br>
Maybe if we can get a few solar panels like the one we have now and<br>
mount them at or near the places where the batteries live.<br>
