Solar Panel – Part 1

This is for my workshop projects and related gadgets in particular to power my wi-fi bird feeder and wi-fi chicken feeder.

250W Solar Panel Flexible 12V 30A Caravan Camping Portable Solar Panel Kit.
Delivered the next day.


First problem Philips head screws are a weird size, I had to go through one of my multi-bit sets to find one that fits.


Left: Looks like the panel has a regulator with two USB outputs and the unregulated 12/24V is a male DV plug.
Right: Wiring the bits and then I can test it on the wi-fi chicken feeder.

Sunlight coming through the four skylights providing enough voltage to test the system.

Testing the USB outputs with a USB fan.

I’ll be back.
