Play video one year ago i began building my own solar system to provide power for my village house.
Arduino 12v solar panel.
In this video i will start a project to use solar energy to power esp8266 or arduino devices during the whole year.
It can handle a standard lead acid 12v battery like for a scooter or a car.
Now we will calculate the size of the solar panel and battery to power my circuit that draws 23 ma.
A solar panel that can rotate in two axis either automatically using four light sensors either manually with the aid of two potentiometers.
Calculating solar panel and battery sizes.
Now we will calculate the size of the solar panel and battery to power my circuit that draws 23 ma.
Arduino solar charge controller version 2 0.

Using the percentages calculated above this means i will have 6 7 hours of sunlight for charging time on the shortest day of the year 67 of 10 hours 6 7 hours.
We wll answer the following questions.
Servo controlled light tracking solar panel platform.
Initially i made a lm317 based charge controller and an energy meter for monitoring the system.
Arduino powered solar battery charger.
Using the percentages calculated above this means i will have 6 7 hours of sunlight for charging time on the shortest day of the year 67 of 10 hours 6 7 hours.
Open circuit voltage around 20 21 v.
The following design is for a solar battery charger ran by an arduino nano.

This is verified working output and will never damage lead acid battery as the circuit will open and close the mosfet many times per second to average out the output according to measured battery voltage through pin a1.
Finally i made a pwm charge controller.
