|    charging a capacitor from a solar cell?     |
|    17 Nov 07 04:08:37    |
      From: sales@dakotaairparts.com              I'm working on a project for school and want to set up a solar cell to       charge up a couple of really big (size of a soda can) capacitors and then       once they are charged have a relay or something close and send the power       stored in the capacitors to a small electric gear motor.              The idea is that the solar cell doesn't have enough output to power the       motor continuously but if it charges the capacitors up over a period of       time until there is enough current to run a small motor for a few       seconds.              Any ideas?              Thanks, Bill              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
