    Will This Charging Circuit Work Well.?

    The cells are already removed from the charger. The only time when there will be a small leakage into the panel is at night time and this will be less than 1mA.

    In fact you don't even need the diode. If it is very sunny day, the cells will be charged in 6 hours (if they are fully discharged) and removing them from the charger will mean you don't need a diode.

    Will This Charging Circuit Work Well.?

    MPPT you are talking about maximum POWER and this is totally different from charging the battery in our case. The load you are talking about is entirely different to a battery. A Battery is similar to a zener diode. Why buy a 100mA panel and only draw 25mA??? All the things you have...

    Will This Charging Circuit Work Well.?

    "A spec of 100mA only means that the solar cell is able to deliver up to 100mA before seriously dropping in voltage." In fact a solar works exactly the opposite to what you are suggesting. As the sun shines brighter, the voltage and current from a solar panel (solar cell) increases and it will...

    "A spec of 100mA only means that the solar cell is able to deliver up to 100mA before seriously dropping in voltage." Where did you get this rubbish from ?????

    Will This Charging Circuit Work Well.?

    But if the solar cells are 100mA you need to have a circuit that uses the available current. You just need a diode and connect the solar panel directly across the 2x AAA cells. Take them off after a days sunlight.

    how i rewrite a microchip

    Most "little black boxes" in commercial products CANNOT be reprogrammed. They contain a program that is PRINTED into the chip and cannot be removed. This is because PRINTING the program costs less than BURNING it into the chip. You are wasting your time. I would be a MULTIMILLIONAIRE if the...

    DIY Projector Lift

    Look at the principle for lowering a container from a semi trailer. Use two of these. It's very similar to an over-centre toggle. It will pull right up to the ceiling. You will need only one actuator.

    Join two power sources

    You cannot connect the generators on the AC side without proper synchronisation and protection circuitry. Fortunately this is not what the op wants to do. READ THE ORIGINAL POST

    Join two power sources

    There is no problem in joining the two generators and you don't need any capacitors. In fact if they are out of sync it is simply equal to 100Hz input and that is exactly what you want as each generator will be delivering to the load.

    LED timing with multiple variables??

    Instead of going to a great big 8051 you can try an 8-pin PIC12F629 where I have produced all sorts of timing and flashing sequences for a LED and a number of LEDs.

    How to choose a micro controller?

    It depends on what you want to do with the microcontroller program and project you have been designing or working-on. If you want to develop a project that can be sold as cheaply as possible in enormous quantities, you need to look at something like a PIC micro where the program can be...

    Help understanding solar lamp circuit

    When the solar panel is illuminated by sunlight, the voltage on the base of Q2 is about 0.7v as it cannot rise any higher than this voltage. This turns the transistor ON and the voltage on the base of the output transistor is about 0.3v and it is kept in an OFF condition. When the solar panel...
