setting up hydro power is tedious and complicated
Portable solar panel or permanent?
and just FYI, your solar panel will be chinese no matter where you order it from.
The photo cells are ALL made in china
The boards can be assembled elsewhere, but all the parts are chinese
portable, it would be cheaper for me
What kind of output? You wanting to charge a phone or an e-bike?
after looking around a bit, i think somewhere around 30w
50w seem to end up being too expensive for me
no bro, what do you need output wise
powering my pc would be really nice, but that seems to be a reach
so i guess powering smaller devices
phone/vape/vidya/lamp
and whatever else
Thinking about copping this and hooking it up to a cheap ass solar panel
Wonder if I'd be able to power my hot plate with this...
for any reasonable amount of time
depends on capacity
size of battery, etc...
I guess 30k!
after you tell us the battery size, we'll need the draw of the hot plate.
then we can tell you no, it won't work...
...but with math to prove it.
On the plus side, the battery bank will probably get hot enough to fry an egg while attempting to power the hot plate.
USB drink warmer and (very) slow cooked eggs
mmmm soft boiled
very soft
hang on
24mah
Thats pretty fucking gay for the size
2880wh
Gay
In a perfect system, mathematically, that battery should last 1.25ish hours for a hotplate drawing 15amps
Average phone battery is like
3500 /4000mah
Average phone external battery is 10000
Factoring for the imperfections (heat, efficiency, etc) you *might* get the hot plate to run for an hour.
