Since I started with the studies of Arduino and the Maker Culture I have liked to build useful devices using junk and scrap pieces such as bottle caps, pieces of PVC, drink cans, etc. I love to give a second lif
Generally when I want to get away from the city and camp, I take some kind of power source with me. Within my preferences are the Power Banks. With a small and light one, of approximately 40 Watt hours (Wh), I can charge my cell phone about 2 or three times and that is fine if...
Connect solar panels in parallel,then paste them in the direction of window frame with 3M twin adhesive, put hot glue to the loosen parts. Fix solar power manager, Arduino UNO, and sensors near to LEDs. Arduino UNO and Lithium battery: Tear all 3M adhesive in the LED board apart, take ...
With the WS500, you don’t have to worry about heavy house loads, solar panel output, and RPM affecting the charge cycle. The regulator always does the right thing. For my newVictron Gel1855 Amp/Hr bank, this means that when the current going into the batteries hits 4% of the bank...
The first step was to come up with a way mount the drive motor and solar panel(s). I did a little back of the envelope brainstorming and designed a mount for the tracking system that was simple, inexpensive, and easily broken down for transport. It is made mostly from 2X4s and standa...

The other option would be to use a 6v/250mA solar panel. This will stay within the current input range and voltage input range of the Lithium Polymer charger. Remember that you can also connect smaller solar cells in parallel to increase the available current- two 5v/100mA solar cells con...
