Kickstand for Goal Zero Nomad 7 solar panel

thingiverse

This is a small component used to create a kickstand for the Goal Zero Nomad 7 solar panel. The kickstand allows you to adjust the angle of the panel so it's directly perpendicular to the sunlight, which maximizes its efficiency. You'll also need a short piece of 3/16 inch dowel from any hardware store, available at an affordable price. The kickstand top fits snugly onto the dowel to form the complete kickstand. A notch in the top secures ties around the solar panel's edge, preventing it from slipping off the stand. The kickstand is designed to fit diagonally within the storage pocket on the back of the panel. You can see how to use the kickstand by checking out the "action shots." I've included the openscad source file if you want to modify the part for a different dowel or adjust any parameters.
