Charging DJI Phantom batteries in the field

If you are asking me then no, that's not an inverter generator, so it will not produce anything resembling a pure sine wave and is likely rather noisy. I use a Yamaha EF2000iS. Honda makes a very similar unit - those are the two best known in that class.

What about using a large battery bank?
I'm going on a 3 day bike trip in the mountains and was thinking of modifying something like this.....thoughts?

I guess no one has had experience converting a battery bank into an in-field recharging station?
I trailer a bunch of solar panels and setup my own mini solar farm. Then charge people if they want to charge there own.
Up here in the great white north, car batteries are up 120 amp hour . I have been at RC car meets and charged several packs without starting the engine.
Reading this thread makes me think I'm doing something wrong...
I have an ARKPAK running a 120 amp HR car battery. I use this mostly for camping, running the fridge, lights etc. So instead of having a dual battery in my 4x4 I have this portable option.
The unit has 2 Cig lighter socket ports - using the DJI Car charger in these is USELESS.... I put a battery that was down to 30% on charge and it took about 3-4hrs to take it to 75% charged....! Disappointing
So the unit had a small 150w inverter so am thinking of using that instead because it's just too slow otherwise.....
Open to suggestions!

I use a GoalZero Yeti 400 Solar Generator. 5 hour charging from the wall at home fills the generator which in turn can charge 3 phantom batteries in the field which will drain the generator. Generator can then be recharged fully in 8 hrs or good sunlight using panels 24 hours if it's constant overcast.
