extremely low power PLC

anyone have any experience with very low power plc's? It seems hard to find a plc or programmable rtu that has minimal IO that pulls very little power. I essentially just need a few DI and 1 DO. I am looking for something that is 12vdc but only pulls about 20-40ma or less.

It doesnt even need to be a PLC per say, just something that I can do minimal code in to turn on an output for a few minutes when an input changes states.

Is this outdoors? Is real estate an issue?
Cheap fiberglass box with a couple of batteries and Click PLC, Solar panel + regulator and good to go. A few hundred bucks and problem is solved.
