My first thought was 'wow that's amazing, what can I power with it'. I
very quickly realised however, that I couldn't really do anything with
it as it was. It had a connection for a car battery and a cigarette
lighter socket, but I don't have a car. It also had a small selection
of dc type fittings, but I couldn't find one device amongst all my
phone, ipod, computer, speakers, nintendo ds and so on, that it
actually fitted.
6 months later, I now have a useful solar power system which I am
growing all the time. These specialist pages are all about how I got it
to work and what is required to get a small solar panel system to work
for you.
I have bare minimum electronic or DIY skills, so this is
something anybody can do, it just needs a little bit of learning about
the equipment required.
If you fancy a new hobby, would like to save a few quid over time or
are interested in saving some tonnes of CO2 from entering the
atmosphere, then read the following pages as a beginners guide to solar
power.
