    Solar power, battery charging, and inverters

    Thanks for the reply... So, the current won't flow from 5V to 12V meaning that unless I have a converter chip then I really won't be able to charge this battery. There is a solar panel (more expensive of course - was looking to get away with using the smaller one) that was recommended for this...

    Solar power, battery charging, and inverters

    Hello, I'm trying to teach myself ...still learning...but I'm stumbling. I have a 15W solar panel whose output is 5V and 2.1A. I wish to charge a 12V battery (98Wh/8800mAh), but am unsure how to do this calculation as approximate time it would take (Assume sunny days - I know it's an...
