I use a Silva Solar 1 when I thruhike. It's not going to power your laptop, but it'll recharge 2 AAs, enough for my miniDV camcorder.

Wind turbines can be purchased that are small enough so as to only cost 500$, and they'll keep you off the grid.
OR, if you're a handy-man, you could try to make your own. Just make sure to set it up in a place where there are no mature trees to break your wind.
There's an example of someone who did. http:*******************
It's just another alternative, just throwing out some ideas.

I think Sarge is going a little nuts with the URL censorships. Far be it for me to change the topic of the thread, but some URLs are helpful and saves a couple minutes googling... which produces the exact same link.
While think solar power is good there are hand generators avaliable for when there is no sun and the wind generators are a good idea but $$$.
I have a couple Isun solar panels for charging my AAA, AA, C, D batteries. I just got a small set up off Eo-buy 5hat charges my AA 4 at a time and it was cheep.
Solar works but for dependability a crank charger is a must have. I do not plan on living out in the wilds. I got them for the just in case times. I have a hand crank system for my cell phone and solar adapters for the rest.
GPS? Is that some kind of new fangled compass with a built in typo map? Just kidding.

My cabin is passive solar. I do have a Brunton roll up Solar mat that does a fine job charging my camcorder batts. and a hand crank charger for times when the sun is not around (most of the winter.) I made my crank charger from a 1hp machine motor I traded for at a second hand shop.
