I am only using these panels for the internet dongle - power for the camera will be another challenge
I am thinking of buying a pocket wifi with a battery so the solar only has to charge it and wont drop out when the sun goes behind a cloud for a few minutes
My previous test had the dongle almost working on 3 panels so 6 should be enough and if its not too messy I will add the other 3 for extra power!!
I have an ancient solar panel that I use to charge batteries when camping to run fridge, tv etc and it works well.
This will be the first full build I have done - hope its not a complete waste of time.
You think a nice coating of VAS will help them last a bit longer?
