solar panel project :) - Hex - 27 February 2014
so i spotted this the other day and though it could be a great little project
especially since solar lights can be picked up pretty cheap or even recycled if you can find someone throwing old ones away. alternatively they can be found in gardens all over the country if your so inclined, however i would never reccomend anybody follow the help yourself route.

That's appreciated mate. I'm usually super busy, so having this forum is like my 'quick go to' place for funky projects.

Quote: Over 22 volts [open circuit] on a winter day. I have no idea of how many watts.Probably very little actual power off these solar panels.
