Comments.Text: Whatever batteries you are in need of charging (travel with as many spares as you can afford), you are going to have to use the generator(s). Why? There's not other option, as there's no electricity. The situation is not ideal, but it's what it is. As for generators, usually people don't set them up right under their windows, but a bit away and even sometimes in small hut-like structures. So don't worry about the noise.
