Little off subject but I have had this for 2 years now and it has been great. Paid like 10 bucks stays charged good I just keep it on my dash. Or just sitting in the sun at camp also low light will charge it.
Here ya go Dave has the best prices around and a ODT member.

280 is a good deal for a 65 quart
I am not the tallest guy nor am I blue (at the moment) so for this internet ranger, they seem to work well for me. I have changed the straps BTW and it wears well for me.
I got both of mine at a Army surplus for $35 with only one frame. That of course is a great deal they were closing down. Just keep checking the Surplus stores/sights and you will find a good deal!!!!
I really do like my Alice packs. I need a frame for my small one and my big one stays packed with my Hammock, wool blanky, evreything else to a small stove and my axe! As soon as I get or make a frame for my small one that will be my hunting pack...............
