摘要：In the context of our fieldwork in the Egyptian desert, we previously
discussed some of the problems that can affect electronic
devices in a particularly harsh setting (McPherron and
Dibble 2003). A related issue, and one that is just as important,
is how to supply power to those devices when the nearest electric
outlet is miles away. Our solution to this problem has been
to develop a system that works off of regular car batteries. There
are many advantages to batteries: they are relatively inexpensive,
they store a lot of power, they are relatively portable, and both
batteries and chargers are available all over the world. Moreover,
with the recent rise in popularity of recreational vehicles and
boating, a lot of products have been developed for use with the
kind of power¡ª12 volt DC¡ªthat car batteries supply. Here we
will present some basics of how to use them in the field.
