MPPT Solar Charger Rev C Design

Over the last year or so I’ve designed, built and tested a standalone solar charger. It performed quite well but as with any complex design there were a number of things that needed to be improved. So I eventually reached the point where I decided to design a revised version. And this is what this post is all about.

ReflowR on indiegogo.com

This will be my shortest post ever. But I just spotted a project on indiegogo.com that I think is worth mentioning: A small and affordable tool to do reflow soldering. It’s basically a heating plate specifically designed for reflow soldering. So it can reproduce JEDEC temperature profiles, it does data logging and and you can even control it via a web interface if you spend an extra 9$ on the wifi upgrade.
