The Practical Woodsman
Education • Travel • Preparedness
The Practical Woodsman is a way to share love of the wilderness, as well as my observations, thinking, and approach to what folks today are calling 'bushcraft' and 'survival'. The focus is on what is practical, as well as pointing out certain things being demonstrated by 'bushcrafters' today that are not practical at all.

Solar & Power Devices I Currently Own

A brief video to show off the devices I currently have. The larger, more complex setup is of course for camping. It honestly may end up being useful for me only about once a year. I think the much more useful solar chargers for emergencies, travel, simplicity and so forth are the ultra-portable, foldable solar chargers that fall somewhere between 15w - 40w. I enjoy experimenting with them very much.

This brief video should give y’all an idea of what I’m currently playing around with and testing. I have several of these Big Blue 28w solar chargers, by the way. No need for me to show them all off in this video. They’re packed away in bugout bags and whatnot. The one I do show off is a spare that I’m just using lately for testing and comparisons.
