5VDC 0.2W Mini Solar Panel
This is a fairly low cost mini solar panel to work with. These solar panels in indoor lighting can output a maximum of 5v per panel. Adding them in series will increase the voltage and adding them in panel keeps the voltage same but increases the current. We estimate the max current each panel can deliver is 66mA. Since they are tiny and cost-effective to work with, we recommend them highly to those who want to build a solar panel system for learning purposes.
Figure out voltage regulation to keep a constant voltage out, increase the current output to ensure your device stays on, try adding a battery and charging system to keep the system isolated from the wall outlet.
