Title: Re: solar power Post by: CanCreT on January 29, 2008, 05:35:12 17:35 with 24V @ 10 mA it can only power the computer within ur calculator! But how about considering the panels from www.sunpowercorp.com. they got panels with a powe rating of 200W and quite cost effective also. U'll find an article in www.circuitcellar.com about a sample project. check it out.

For 24V 10mA, I reckon any type of voltage multiplier will do it easily. Heck its only 240mW. Title: Re: solar power Post by: necati on January 29, 2008, 11:07:50 23:07 pv panel (solar)
