Power sources at dark sites

Hi all,

I am considering enternal power sources to run my motor drive on the EQ4. Considering I will occasionally be going bush to dark sites I am interested to know how some of you run your motor drives/laptops etc. when in the field.

I am considering two easy, cheap options. Plug AC straight into a battery pack jump starter (not sure how long these last though and whether it will get me through a full night) or look at DC input to my cigarette lighter in my car (although I am loathe to suck the car battery).

Does anyone have any other thoughts?
