Featured Replies

we are planning to make a solar-powered module car. yet we don't quite undeerstand it works. one big problem is how to connect the solar cell to the engine.

:-(:confused:

plzz heelp us

Thanks

any ideaz will help :)

well in all honesty, it really is quite simple, just consider the solar cell as a battery that needs light :)

when you say "Engine" I expect you mean a DC motor?

you don`t say much about simple details of SIZE (is it a model car or not?)

the characteristics of your DC motor?

a bit more data please :)

motor was what i meant and we are making a model car but using solar energy. :D

Here is a sample of some cell specs. To ge 1.5V your looking at about 25"sq. and I don't know what weight the cells add.

Lots of motors on google search but you can go to a store and buy a toy just for the motor and free gearing if you want one quick.

Just aman
