Solar panel

prusaprinters

<p>This is a case for 95mm solar panels such as theese ones (5.5V 1W option): <a href="https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002996845292.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.55ac4c4dxvUI1N">https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002996845292.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.55ac4c4dxvUI1N</a></p><p>It has holes for cables that should be in the middle so you can glue multiple cases together and stick cables through the whole lenght.</p><p>There is also 4x4 ready to print box. I have Prusa MINI so I wasn't able to print it all together but who have the regular size 3D printer will be able to print it all at once</p><p>I created clips to snap multiple cases together, although I highly recommend to glue it together for better strenght.</p><p>The my created “solar panel” :D generates 5.5V 4W when all connected in paralel, in series its around 20V 1W. It depends on the current sunlight.&nbsp;</p><p>I have connected it in 1x2 paralel and theese 1x2 i conneced into series. After voltage stabilization to 12V I have somethnig about 12V and 1.2W output. It ain't much but its honest work :D I charge my 12V 9Ah battery during the day and then use it as a power supply for my ledstrips to light my room in the night. And it works!&nbsp;</p><p>My print settings:&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Polymaker PolyTerra PLA</li><li>0.4mm nozzle and 0.3/0.25mm layer height</li><li>10% infill</li></ul><p>I have it inside so the PLA isn't a big deal but if you plan to use it outside I recomend to use PETG or ABS for longer life.</p><p>Feel free to modify and customize it as you need.</p>
