Re: Solar charger (was Re: News Openmoko Shop Pulster)
I thought I would provide some of my experience with using solar power. My experience involves using a 12v panel. You can get 12v panels from all kinds of places. In order to step down 12v to the required 5v you will need an efficient dc converter: http://us.100y.com.tw/PNoInfo/21207.htm Do NOT use a 5v regulator as you will dump half the power directly into the regulator as heat. That is not only a waste of power but potentially a fire risk. From there you can get a connector to the NEO USB and simply wire in the power. I actually had a PhidgetServo board and wired the power directly into it. To get my NEO to charge I had to turn on the external charging and set to 500ma. The point here is that you will need 5v x 500ma = 2.5W in order to supply that kind of juice. This power is only available in full exposure. It also does not account for any conversion loss. I recommend using a 5W panel. Obviously if you can get a 6v or 5v panel you could use a basic regulator without much trouble. This is not a kind of panel you can carry around easily. Some 'chargers' on the market have such low surface area they have no realistic chance of supplying the kind of juice required for charging in a realistic time frame. Here is panel I'm using: http://www.dse.co.nz/dse.shop/4a21d7f801e681262741c0a87f3b06ee/Product/View/O3345 ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I think the theory might be the same. solar board charge internal battery, and then battery charge phone. crank output charge internal battery, and then battery charge phone.

Re: Solar charger (was Re: News Openmoko Shop Pulster)
Christoph and I were talking about this and agree with Christian we must think on this devices more as auxiliary batteries with a plus than solar chargers, so the higher capacity the better. We are interested in offer this in our shops so we will proceed the following way, as we do with the Slim BT Keyboard, but this time even more open and community driven. I will order a sample of the following models from en-hancing.com to test them and put the results on a wiki page along with some pictures of them on the field. SC019 3000mAh cool&rought the more expensive SC020 3600mAh the highest capacity but seems slightly weaker than sc019 SC018 2600mAh only one solar panel but with higher battery than SC021 and twice cheaper, if it has a mini usb adaptor can be a better choice for cheaper option SC021 is only 2000mAh is just a little bit cheaper than SC019/20 options You can suggest what test do you like to be performed and I will publish the results on that wiki. After that test we(community included in that we) can disscuss what model fits most of all and I will proceed with an order to have stock in our shops. Please be aware than final price will be higher than we have disscused here, after some quick maths the SC019/20 model will be about 69EUR , SC018 about 39EUR, the SC021 about 59EUR(too much for a 2000mAh battery IMHO) those prices are just to orientate, custom fees and Euro/dollar equivalence when the order is finally made are really hard to calculate(near a lottery really) is just to you have an idea. So the due the other YL series doesn't has more than 2400mAh and to avoid more shipping/customs costs (really expesive from china). I think does't worth the effort to try to buy samples from them.

I couldn't keep my Nokia N95/8GB charged. When they say that you can charge your solar charger with sun light in 8/12H, it means actually 8/12h exposed under the sun light at its zenith, on the equator of the earth! By experience, i can tell you that you will need _at least_ two sunny days to get it charged properly (during which you took care of orienting the charger as the sun moves). You have to be aware of these constraints as well: - You can't charge your phone while you charge the charger itself - If the charger is not fully charge (the light is not green), it won't charge your phone, _at all_! As well, i would advice to use a charger which has at least 2 times the capacity of your phone (FR has a 3.7V/1200mAh battery). On the 3 chargers you propose here, and the 3 chargers i've proposed earlier, i would be only interested in 2 of them:, the SC019 and the SC020, mainly because these are the only ones which has internal battery with a capacity >= 3000Ah Regards, Chris > > > YL-S01 > High solar energy of Single crystal silicon or polycrystalline silicon > convert efficiency is over than 16% > Solar energy board:DC5.0V/300mA > Built-in rechargeable lithium polymer battery: 2400mAh/3.7V > Input Voltage:DC5.0V-5.5V > Input current: 800mA Max. > Output Voltage: 5.5V,8.4V > Output current: 700mA Max. > Dimension: 138 mm×79mm×25 mm > Peak power supplied by photocell:1.5 W > charging time: about 6hours (by computer) >about 8-12hours(by sunlight) > Running time: about 2hours (discharging in 700mA) > > YL-S02 > High solar energy of Single crystal silicon or polycrystalline silicon > convert efficiency is over than 16% > Solar energy board:DC5.0V/300mA > Built-in rechargeable lithium polymer battery:1800mAh/3.7V > Input Voltage:DC5.0V-5.5V > Input current: 800mA Max. > Output Voltage:DC5.5V±0.2V(unload) > Output current: 700mA Max. > Dimension:138 mm×79mm×25 mm > Peak power supplied by photocell:1.5 W > charging time: about 4.5 hours (by computer) > about 6-10hours(by sunlight) > Running time: about1.6hours (discharging in 700mA) > > YL-S03 > High solar energy convert efficiency: over than 16% > Solar energy board: 5.5V/80mA > Dimension: 95×43×11.5mm > High capacity build in battery: 1350mAH/3.7V \ > Output voltage: DC 5.5±0.2V > Input voltage: DC 5.0-5.5V > Output current: 700mA max > Input current: 800mA max > Weight: about 55g > charging time: about 3.5 hours (by computer) >about 15-20hours(by sunlight) > Running time: about 1.1hours (discharging in max.700mA) > >> ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
