Solar Powered Fan

Micheal Said:

I built a small solar powered fan that worked well. I would like to increase the size of the fan.?

We Answered:

Essentially you are building a new one, first a larger fan, then a larger motor, then a larger solar array.

So keep the old one and buy or build a new one. You can buy plenty of motors online. Pick the voltage you will use for the solar array, say 6 volts, then look for a 6 volt motor. Check it's current requirements, and get enough solar panels to supply that current.
