FresnELVES

transistor switched self-assembled solar powered levelup modules for traditional swiss flashlights

fit a solar-charged, battery powered digilife function into an ubiquitous milspec case. for nomad use. f.ex.

  • flashlight
  • blinkeshit
  • powerbank
  • microcontroller
  • wifi server
  • dac
  • bentobox with peltier cooling
  • Your ideas..?!

SolarELVESoHowDoesThisWork?

1. downloading energy with high-efficiency 5.5V 1+W solar panels 2. charge controlling 1. 3. storing energy with 3.7V lipo battery packs 4. connecting energy drain like 6V 1W led via transistor switch

always-on

  • system stores solar energy when available
  • else it emits its energy
  • at a rate slower than received if possible
  • matching your specs carefully decides performance ultimately
