This is the most simple and affordable solar battery charger that the
hobbyist can make. It has a few drawbacks over other similar controls, but offers numerous
advantages. It is intended for charging lead-acid batteries, but may also be used for charging
any battery at a constant voltage. Voltage output is adjustable.
Challenges:
The solar chargers which were invented earlier are large in size and weight .it is very
difficult to carry anywhere because of “rugged” additional features.
They don`t have the facility to store the charge . hence we have to place our costly
devices in hot sun.
By connecting the device directly to a solar panel or in brown out conditions, variable
voltage is supplied.
When the device receives more current, it will in overheating and self-destruction.
Challenges (CONT..)
Many charger are “ universal “ but they discharge at the lowest rate for other standard
devices.
Some solar charges are only suitable to either CTIA STANDARD or APPLE standard.
They need some special USB cables.
The batteries are usually NimH or NiCd battery which is poor on storage and have a high
self discharge rate.
Lithium ion cells have no special charge control safety and will exceed safe operating
temperature and shut down by the extreme heat.
The thin film cells used by solar chargers are less expensive but have lower energy
conversion efficiency.
It absorbs the visible part of the solar spectrum not IR part.
It can work in low-light conditions but never work well in full sun conditions.
Specification :
Battery : 3.7V/2000 mAh Li-Poly- User replaceable at end of life (average 3 years)
Cost : $70.0
Schematic :
6V Application :
Features:
The battery is of type LI-poly battery and it has uniform discharge rate to protect the
device from damage.
It charges I phone in just 60-90 minutes.
Solio has solar smart battery to deliver uniform power supply.
Battery has very low self-discharge rate and can store charge for 1 year of time.
Can retain up to 80% of its original capacity after 500 full charge and discharge cycles.
Hence it has more life span.

CONCLUSION
Solar energy is the most eco-friendly form of energy which can be utilized in order to
perform our everyday activities.
People all over the world have come conscious regarding the safety of the environment.
The future driven by solar panels and batteries will turn the electronics and electrical
markets upside down.
