wow thanks for the great suggestions and outside the box ideas. Im not too concerned "yet" with having something that is going to last all day as being 40 and out of shape, and new to riding it will be some time before im taking very long extended rides. I am sure that will be something I build up to. I do know however i perfer to spend more and buy once instead of upgrading later. With that being said I already own battery power banks for my cell phone so I could probably get by with one of those at least at first.
