will this be appropriate for back packers? Can it hook on a backpack?

It is pretty durable. Yu can hook it onto your backpack if you have some sort of clip, like a metal one. There is a metal semi circle at the bottom of the device that comes out an can be hooked onto various things. Hope this helped you out

Yes, I bought it for my son just for that purpose. He camps and backpacks all of the time. His best friend who he camps with all of the time had one, and that's why my son asked for one for Christmas last year.

It would be appropriate for back packers. But I think a better option would be Goal Zero's Gude 10 Plus. My K3 doesn't charge any more by wind or solar. So, I don't know how reliable it would be...I love the idea of combining wind and solar in a small unit. There is a hook off hanging on the bottom. It's actually a metal loop, big enough for a caribiner. But I would check out Goal zero first. I do NOT work for nor do I get compensation in any form from them to recommend their products.

You can, but it's not a true solar charger. The solar and wind charger are just too keep the battery from dropping in between charges. I contacted k3 they told me to charge the batter on this unit by solar from dead would take 180 -200 hours., with the wind charger would take over 400 hours..

There are no hooks, etc. on the device, but I guess you could probably figure a way to strap it on or in your backpack.

While I really like the travel crate, it won't work for your specific purpose. It folds flat. It can't be rolled for a backpack. Depending on the size of crate that you need, you could probably attach it to a pack and carry it that way. I have the large size and it's still light.

Hi, it is pretty bulky and I don't think you can. You may damage it... You can roll it and hang it outside the pack !One of my friends has a super nice one very flexible it is more like "memory foam" type. But I have no clue of the brand.. sorry.Good luck and have fun on your trip.

likely yes. I used it with a large day pack with no problem even in a tropical rainforest. It was excellent.

I think you could attach it to just about anything,as it has a sheath with slots to run straps thru, and also holes with steel rings that you can run paracord thru if strapping it down wont work for you. once u attach the sheath to whatever you want, then its just a quick release snap and a good yank on the handle! You will not regret having this in your pack, i can guarantee you that much. Cliff

It is not a good option for a backpack. It is pretty large. Mine is about 49" long when collapsed, and it is quite heavy.

I hang my heavy purse and a small backpack on it. It would depend on heavy the three backpacks are. Also, the hooks would be high for kids. I have been quite happy with it but it really use mostly for coats.

As long as you mount the French cleat to studs in the wall, I would think it would hold kids' backpacks without any problem. We have been very happy with ours.

My daughter uses this bag. She does not put a laptop in it but has some books. I don't think it is as big a bag as a back pack would be, but if a lot of books aren't needed then it could work. Don't expect a lot of heavy texts to carry.

Yes, I think it would be! The back side is adjustable! And it is a good quality pack!

Hi Luke - It depends on the way you'd attach the hiking bag. This bag has straps where a meat bag can be strapped on so just about anything could be strapped back there.

If your bag has any d-rings or other type of connectors around the shoulder straps of your pack -- I don't see why it wouldn't work for you. Before I found those straps, I used some nylon paracord or 550 cord to tie it to my pack. It looked tacky but it worked. BTW, have you tried here? http://www.procameragear.com/catalog/index.php/cPath/1_25They have all kinds of connectors that you can mix and match to make it work. Good luck!

No, I wouldn't recommend this product for that purpose. It is more like a fabric that a backpack is made out of.

The back pack has a separate compartment for the sleeping bag and I believe a small tent as you described would fit. As the pack is an internal frame, there isn't any obvious places to tie your sleep mat or anything else. There is some webbing on the top that can be adjusted that may do the trick. I used this to strap my jacket when I wasn't wearing it.

Yes, and it has an adjustable strap on it for over--should carry or attaching to pack or equipment. I purchased and use one.

It would work excellent. There is a stabilizer strap for holding the bag tight that most people tuck into the opposite strap slot. With this strap snapped into the single strap the pack is very stable. I use my pack for every hike I have been on, it is my Man Purse.

No..this is not designed for that. Its designed to attach MOLLE accessories only.
