Eight Solar Cell Lithium
Ion Battery Charger
A single lithium ion
battery cell needs 4.2v from a current source to insure it is fully charged.
A solar panel with just enough individual cells wired in series to produce the
needed voltage would be more efficient than one with more cells for a given
surface area. If you divide 4.2 by eight you come up with a figure of
0.525 volts.... |
