AA Battery Solar Charger
Current meter used to measure the current from a solar panel. It has very low power loss for currents in the 0-10A range. It also works as a general purpose DC current meter
Gate Boost Solar Engine The Gate Boost SE uses a 1381, a 2N7000 MOSFET and a 2N3906 with a unique voltage doubler to increase the voltage applied to the gate of the MOSFET ....
Photovoltaic Solar Battery Regulator and Load Controller This device allows solar cell arrays to be connected to either conventional lead-acid, sealed lead-acid, or lithium storage batteries without fear of overcharging. It allows two different electrical loads to be driven from the batteries at two different charge states to maximise power usage efficiency

Solar Charger PIC16F84
Solar charger charging a 12v battery, using the cheapest set of solar cells and the cheapest inverter
Solar charger for lead-acid batteries This circuit is intended for charging sealed lead-acid batteries with a solar panel in small and portable applications
Solar panel charge controller/low voltage disconnect circuit the charge controller is used to connect a solar panel to a 12 volt lead acid battery, it regulates the charging of the battery and allows the battery to be charged up to a preset voltage. This prevents the battery from over-charging and boiling off electrolyte
Solar Collector Sun Tracking Remark: switch R7 and R8
Solar Garden Light Autopsy The NiCads are charged by the solar cells through a 1N5817 schottky diode with a low forward voltage drop. On the top of the unit next to the solar cells is a CDS light sensitive resistor. A PNP transistor Q1 controls power to the LED, pdf file

Solar sun tracker Cadmium Sulfide Relay Tracker Schematic
Solar tracker This kit monitors the position of the sun using two Light Dependant Resistors (LDR's), and makes the decision to move the solar panel to correctly orientate to the sun. The output configuration is called a H bridge which will drive a small electric gearbox up to 500mA at the input voltage (6 .. 15V), both forward and reverse
