The limiting factor right now is the solar power at 5W. To get more, it'd require a solar panel, MPPT board and battery. But then you could chain them to get as many as you want.

Minimum cost per 5W panel/9.5Ah battery is roughly $35 (again, lower if buying in bulk).

I don't have number on power draw, so I can't say how many days without sun this could last. I plan on getting some measurements from the field to answer this question.
