DIY solar panel science project?
tennisxelite asked:
Hey everyone
I’ve been assigned a science project….
I was thinking of making a messenger bag with a solar panel on it.
Is there a cheap (under $100) way to make your own solar panel?
It must yield 3-10 watts

3~10 watts is quite a lot.
You can go to Big Lots or other close out store and pick up as many solar garden lights as you can for the budget, and wire them series/parallel to get the voltage and current you need…
You could add a lot to your project by building a parabolic reflector and focusing it on the array. It would impress the judges even if it only added a little to the power. And it shold be cheap enough. There’s probabaly a swap meet in the area where you can get a DirecTV or dish network satellite dish. You just need to make it bright and reflective.
Hey there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m looking to start my own blog soon but I’m having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
