I only use it to check for continuity and sometimes voltages, so it certainly does the trick.
How just put the two leads into the screw terminal going to the extruder
And see what the voltage reads
12.5V
Well
how viable are chinese solar cells?
Guess that wasn't the problem them ffs
@myuutsu last time i checked they were world leader on the manufacturing and marketing them ?
tho that was 1-2 years back or even more
Series of solar panels together
far as i know the process is quite toxic ***
no no no
Combine many together
ahh
Try to go for 2A+
for china stuff.. err i think the company name was Suntech/solartech or something
For bonus make sure the psu is also outputting 12V and if not calibrate it
then there was some taiwanese company named neo solar power
But yeah time to open a case to get a replacement extruder head
@shadowedROM ye I opened a ticket at Gb
So it needs to be in parallel
For 5V, whatever A
I'd like to be able to charge some power banks in emergency
like this, but not so much
cheaper probly to get somekind of basic kit
15-30w
and get charge controller for it to input that current
Also, when they say something like 0.86A output
but 17% efficiency
That's 0.86 * 0.17?
hell even 6W panel (those foldable ones) might do
i mean https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PFG56ZS/ref=twister_B01N5FYQGK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 shit like this would be best
and downgrade the voltage from those with proper circuit
and you are done
i have been planning similar chinkmechanic to balcony for next summer
what are you gonna do with a solar panel
Probly phonecharger+batteries+maybe led lamp and rasbi if i can be arsed
What do I need for a USB port, what's the spec?
