this is the best constructed solar array ive ever seen in a diy very portable and useful! now a suggestion add a capacitor somewhere in the wiring to prevent spikes in power from clouds and other things like that and if you get one big enough you could bring it into the shade for a few seconds to move the charging spot (shade is moving in or something) and then your charge wont be inturupted

for some reason, even when i had exactly 5 volts, i couldnt get anything to happen. i added a 5 volt regulator and it worked. if anyone else tries this, i would suggest a regulator. also, i tried adding 4 more and doing it in series, and i got 15 volts! just a suggestion for higher powered devices.

At the moment I am building a solar powered home in so florida. The power will be harnessed in batteries for the night hours. we will be connected to the grid and selling power unused to the local power company.I am not the engineer of record.

on most panels, the positive and negative are marked, but you could also test with a voltmeter

it would be possible to plug something in that you would normally need a wall socket for-like a laptop, for example. However a wall socket gives an output of 110 volts in the US...you'll need more than a couple of garden lamps for that. lol

The World need innovative people like you. This is an amazing video. It "does" save the environment as we're using existing materials that have been produced. Thank you for sharing. We would love to see your own website with all these videos. People would actually pay for these if you build them nicely.

I love the idea, and I'll end up doing this myself one afternoon, to see how it rolls
HOWEVER:
USB ports use a Set voltage/amperage with 5V and 500 mA ( I believe so)
If you have a voltage going over, or as you say having not enough, under, then it will end up frying your device or not working, so do at risk and make sure you use a solar cell set thats best suited
However, its still a VERY NICE idea, since it gives a decent output, and this is compatible with so much.
