Solarexperiment with Mini-Solarpanel and LED

Description:

For the solar experiment, I used four Polysilicon Mini Solar Panels, each with 5V and 0.45W. These solar panels were connected in parallel to achieve a higher overall power output. Next, I connected a portion of an LED strip that can be powered by the generated solar energy.

Fabrication:

• The experiment was 3D-printed using PETG material.
• The print was split into two parts, which were later securely joined using hot glue.

Functionality:

1. The mini solar panels collect sunlight and convert it into electrical energy.
2. The generated energy is then directed to the LED strip, causing it to illuminate.

Results:

• The 3D-printed LED strip serves as a visual indicator of success.
• When the solar panels produce sufficient energy, the LED strip begins to glow.

Note:

This experiment can be used as an educational tool in schools or as a fun DIY project at home.
