Bluetti Handsfree backpacks are a brilliant solution for how to keep your camera, computer and other kit charged when on lengthy landscape or wildlife shoots. They combine an ultra-slim power station with a backpack, so you can charge multiple devices hands-free while you wear your power station.

Optional solar panels even enable you to recharge them, with a 60W panel that dangles from the back of the pack to charge as you hike (as long as you have your back to the sun, of course), or a 100W panel that is better suited for when you've set up camp. I told you they were a great idea!
