solar powered trickle charger?

Just wondering if anyone owns or has any knowledge of solar powered trickle chargers? I live in SF and park my 749 in a parking garage, however there are no power outlets to use for a trickle charger. I would like to avoid taking my battery out when I’m not using it. Fortunately, my parking stall is near the exterior of the building so I thought investing in a solar powered trickle charger might be the answer. If anyone has suggestions, I would appreciate it.

Try looking at marine supply stores. Here's a page from Cabela's:

Good luck!

Northern Tool Company has some, or if you have a Harbor Freight in your area I believe they have one as well.
