It would be a use at your own risk if you did I would assume. Just throwing that out there I remembered reading it in the instructions I got with the unit.

I don't think the chargers would represent nearly as much draw as modeling lights. Nonetheless, other ideas I've considered are UPSes and just sticking the UPS + charger bin on a hotel luggage cart and rolling the combo into the hotel room (all great until it rains...).
