Sometime around 2008 i wrote this. It is more of Humor and less of Reality.

Vibration  Pressure are Related, Pressure is related to Temperature, Sunlight has Infra Red & Heating Ability. This should Ring some Bell.

You have Heard of Solar Cells and Panels, Sunlight to Power. Heard of Piezoelectric Energy, Vibration to Electricity

Solar Calculator

Solar – Heat – Pressure – Vibration – Electricity !! New Hybrid Solar Cell ! Someone has to just Invent it. It should Flash a few Lamps.

Micro Mech Lithography. Tiny Cantilevers, Tiny Silicone bulb of Volatile Liquid. Mini Lens Heats the bulb. Cantilever is bent a few Microns.

Pressure sensitive valve deflates Bulb suddenly, The Piezoelectric Cantilever goes Twang. The Electric Pulses charge a Supercap and battery.

The Vaporized Liquid has Condensed, it goes back to the cells by Gravity, The Shrunk Bulb draws the liquid. Ready for next Cycle.

If it works, credit me, else all credits go to Tweedledum and Tweedledee.

There are places like your Backyard, outdoors, a village… where your Gadgets will stop working !!!

You will feel suffocated when your Smartphone or Tablet fails to respond to your caring strokes. Your Dupey is perishing due to Undernourishment. All you need is “Electronic Solar Umbrella” which was invented by me delabs on June 1st 2014.

Electronic Solar Umbrella

The Red Light is for Data Networking SmartUmbrellas using Advanced Multi-Threaded Infra Red Technology.

SUN – Smart Umbrella Networking

I just invented the SmartUmbrella – My Drone is Rushing to the Patent Office.

(Keep this confidential till my drone returns safely, the beagle boys are using Blimps with Large Magnets to capture Drones.)

CirKits – Solar Power Electronic Projects

CirKits SCC3 Photovoltaic Charge Controller kit, SPC3 Solar Power Center kit, and DAS1 Dark Activated Switch kit.

CirKits - Solar Power Electronic Projects

SPC3 – 12 Volt 9 Amp / 10 Amp Solar Power Center Kit

The SPC3 kit contains all of the circuitry for a medium-sized solar power system. It includes a solar charge controller for battery charge regulation, a smart on/off power switch with automatic low voltage disconnect operation and a built-in white LED lighting system. Additional lights and other 12V devices can be connected to the load terminals and controlled by the SPC3. The SPC3 can regulate up to 9 amps of incoming solar power and can switch an external load of up to 10 amps.

The kit includes:

  • A high quality double sided, silk screened circuit board.
  • All of the parts required for building the board.
  • A schematic and wiring diagram.
  • Easy step-by-step assembly, alignment and usage instructions.

CirKits is a division of SolOrb.

Here are some neat projects for your study, free learning material. Solar Oven Cooker, Anemometer Circuit, Simple Data Logger.

Hand Cranked DC Generator Plans

The MTM Scientific, Inc. Experimenter Corner

Highlights are How to Measure the Power Output of Solar Panels and the Time Controlled Relay Switching Kit.

They also sell a Battery Amp Hour Meter and a Crystal Diode set which contains 1N34A diodes, 1N60 and D9B for learning electronics. They are Germanium Diodes.

An interesting Energy solution is the Hand Cranked DC Generator Plans. It describes how to build a hand operated electric power generator using a standard DC gearhead motor.

Solar Tracker Circuit Kits helps you servo position your Solar Cell Array, you can build a device which will automatically follow the sun across the sky.

At the PackRat WorkShop Lee Bell has archived Power-Energy Ideas, Mechanical Howto and Robot Designs too.

Alternate Energy Plans by Lee Bell

A Practical Man, His drawings are a language by itself. He has created a useful resource which will keep a DIY Enthusiast busy for many months. Alternate Energy Plans by Lee Bell

Alternate Energy, storing and managing your own small power source, are an invaluable asset for Home or Small Business.

Depending on oneself, not only develops skills but also keeps you in form always. Building an energy source cost-effectively, requires you to put in a lot of learning and building efforts.That itself may become your future Small Business

Remember Fossil Fuels are Running out fast, Only Internet Communications and Alternative Energy will keep Business Blooming.

The lifestyle has to change, The future Generations are going to face the Heat, or is it Bitter Cold ! Even Freezing ?

Coal and Steel with Steam brought about the First Industrial Boom. Then Oil created unprecedented Magic, the Second Technological Revolution. This will not last long.

If only Rover found Oil in Mars, this post was not needed.

Renewable Energy -Solar Electronics

“Wide range of up to date information about alternative energy generation. Our main focus is on wind power and solar power for the home, but you will also find details on topics as varied as electronics and biodiesel recipes.”

Solar panels fitted to pole mounted solar trackers - Renewable Energy UK

My Notes-

Here are very useful ideas on solar energy and frugal lighting techniques. Solar Energy goes with Frugal Designs and things like UPS Uninterrupted Power Supply and High Efficiency Circuits. Green and Small Carbon Footprint all finally means how Energy Efficient is our Lifestyle and Preserving the Planet the way we found it, without leaving any scars.
