Personally I would recommend Wii remotes + a piece of paper for the handwritten notes, but this system saves you some typing time later so if you can afford it there are definitely advantages (it's also tons easier to use)

The inverter + FRC battery trick also works quite well and kept scouting going on all day Friday for my team in Connecticut.
What do mean Wii remotes? What do you use them for?
