Portable Solar power source
With a little bit of work it had been surprisingly easy.
You will require :
- Some solar power course lights (have the ones that may be easily dis-assembled)
- Some small gauge line
- An 'Altoids' tin
- A 1/4" mono audio connector
- A soldering iron and solder
- Persistence
- a brain
(Yes, we're able to most likely utilize some hot melt glue, and shrink tubing alongside elegant things, but lets be honest right here, we're hacking one thing into an Altoids tin, this is not rocket science.)
NOW, about that 1/4" connector...
I got many opinions from folks asking in regards to the connector and how it worked. Well here's the offer. It's just a plug. It's not connected to an audio product, the pack doesn't send audio. it is only a nice shiny connect that has a +ive and a -ive component to it.
Many people are familiar with run taking place a usb socket, or some fancy 9V connect, or just a couple of alligator clips. What I wanted had been something that ended up being solid, robust and simple to deal with.
My battery pack abilities the lights to my bike (in fact We have 2 of those) so I require a connect which should endure the weather, you could utilize while wearing gloves, did not break effortlessly etc. The 1/4" connect is all among these whilst becoming an easy task to neat and features a large contact location which much better handles bumps and dust. the FEMALE connectors may also be excptionally easy to keep clean (take to getting soil away from a USB plug...).
