Solar Cells and Panels with Arduino

[@RulerScale]

I used this in my joystick rc car made with Arduino (wireless) for "unlimited power" as it would charge for 3 hours in a sunny day and it even tracks and goes wherever the sunlight is. Charges for 3 hours and works for 25 mins.

Jesus, that’s the perfect video I was looking for. Finally. Thanks for your work!

[@almircampos]

I instantaneously subscribed do this channel. Why can't people be just as simple and clear as this guy in the video? perfect!

[@adamqasimcodes8983]

great work this is probably the only video that isnt sketchy like others and explains well good job!

[@obeserobotics1]

very simple and easy to understand and follow

[@codingfun63]

have they added under voltage protection yet ? older version didnt ?

[@lifeoftraveller]

I'm planning to purchase Solar Power Manager just want to ask can I charge and use Arduino at same time ?

[@aubreymok3846]

Hello wondering, where do you buy these items from online excluding the Arduino?

[@swastikbanik4444]

Are these panels connected in parallel?

[@egglessomelette8926]

can i use 18650x2 with this?

[@thekoolkiwiii]

Would this solar power manager work if I were to connect it to a 12 V solar panel and to a Arduino that is powering serveral other stuff like 2 fans, a space heater and various sensors through its 5V pin? Or would it fry everything?

[@MS_Techno_Beast4]

If you use a 12V battery to fake Arduino it will over heat and will not work

[@aintdran]

So this charges the battery and the Arduino Uno draws power from the battery, not the solar panel?

[@Garfield_Minecraft]

infinite energy!

[@muhammadsyakirin5202]

why does my on light didnt turn on when i plug on the battery and press boot ?

[@bakedmarc5959]

can you provide what model of solar panel you used? and solar power manager

[@Handles_AreStupid]

You can briefly see it in the video when he flashes the back of the panel. It seems to say "AK50X50", which means this is a 50x50mm cell. Hope that helps.

​@@Handles_AreStupidand for solaire power management ? Cause I saw a lot of them but for 12V :/

[@Handles_AreStupid]

@@m_invest5336 This depends on what voltage you are looking for. If you need 3.7v or 5v, look for charger circuits that use solar panels. Lots of 18650 solar charging units have the ability to take a wide range of solar inputs and convert it to 4.2/3.7v stable. It depends what you need it for.

[@Ed19601]

that solar power manager is relatively expensive. some 17 euro

[@obeserobotics1]

Please can you provide us with the code as well

[@arisk8464]

does it need code?

[@voncolborn9437]

​@@arisk8464No, the solar management is passive. It's just an electronic circuit.
