How to combine several solar chargers?

We Answered:

First you need to figure out the output voltage of each charger. The AA and AAA chargers should have the same output voltage. Each solar cell will generate 0.5 to 0.55 volts per cell. So count the number of solar cells in each panel, if they are all the same, you can hook them up in a parallel connection to generate more current. The current output of each panel will add together, but the voltage must match.

If you have different number of cells per panel, then you need to verify the output current of each panel. If the output currents are about the same then you can hook them up in a series connection to generate a higher voltage, the voltage of the panels will add together, but the current must match.

Each panel will have to main wires, one is positive and the other is negative. These are the ones you use to hook up the panels either in series or parallel.

iPhone 3GS solar panel charger?

We Answered:

Hmmm I've never even heard of that! So be careful, if you can't find stuff on it, that;s not good.

Question about converting to solar panel? DETAILS INSIDE!?

We Answered:

You need the battery. Solar panels might not produce the full power required on cloudy days or if not facing the Sun. It that case, the battery draws at a faster rate than the trickler charger charges it. Under full power, the panel might charge faster than the battery is drawn. And ofcourse, on extremely cloudy days or after the Sun has gone low or down, you might not get any charge at all. The battery works when the panel doesn't.

Would anyone be interested in buying a backpack that has a solar panel charger on it to charge phones, ipods?

We Answered:

Sounds like a reasonably good idea ... try to keep it under your hat better (delete this question immediately!!!!). Find someone who can help you with it, and sell it yourself on your own Web site. Don't try to license it to somebody -- they'll rip you off unless you have a patent, and I suspect you would have a difficult time getting a patent. Read "Will It Sell" by James E. White. You can probably find a copy at your local library. I have years of experience developing products like yours for manufacturing -- but unfortunately I find that I don't like trying to develop "floppy" (flexible) things which by definition a backpack is. Do NOT go to any of the "inventor services" who advertise they'll advise you and help you market your product. ALL of them are rip offs -- no exceptions. Good luck to you.
