If I decided on a battery like a GoalZero, are there are public sources where one can plug in and recharge them, say, if solar isn't enough?
 
Backpack under the table same places you go for free WiFi.

Campgrounds and hotels.

Solar 's easier.

Get some while driving too.
 
I didn't have my solar mounting brackets for a week and I'm a heavy user. My solution? I hooked my car battery/alternator up to an extra light switch and to my battery bank, of which I switched on when I drove to charge the batteries. Poor mans battery isolator. Don't leave it on! *cringe at dead car battery*

Protip: You can run a wire through a hole in your door from your engine compartment. I can show you pics if you can't find it. I almost shit myself trying to figure that out.
 
You can, but it is a heavier draw than a cell phone or a laptop.  I'd ask, and offer a nominal donation.  If you go stealth, just apologize if someone objects.
