Buy extra batteries for your trip, you'll be thankful that you have them. I found that if I'm shooting a lot of pictures or clips, that the battery lasts longer if I leave the GoPro on vs turning it on and off to take pictures.

Also, I'm sure you can use a USB charger to power the GoPro over the long time-lapse.
