Why not just put one or two optimally-tilted regular PV panels on the ground and connect them with wire to the tent's "electronics?" They might be less fashionable but will produce up to 6x as much electricity (for the same area), will be cheaper (per Watt and per Watthour), and will last 10 years longer than the flexible stuff.
