It consists of two resistors r1 100k and r2 20k for sensing the solar panel voltage and similarly r3 100k and r4 20k for battery voltage.
Arduino 12v solar panel.
The size of circuit board is the same as size of pro mini board so they can be sandwiched together.
It can take up to 20v on the input site of the charger.
4 8 out of 5 stars 7.
Now we will calculate the size of the solar panel and battery to power my circuit that draws 23 ma.
The following design is for a solar battery charger ran by an arduino nano.
The valve is tured off by the arduino microcontroller.
Furthermore the design has been tested and runs with 90 efficiency under 70ᵒc 158ᵒf.
Personally unless weight is a problem i would use a 12v lead acid battery because they are very safe and a very simple solar regulator would be sufficient.

Using the percentages calculated above this means i will have 6 7 hours of sunlight for charging time on the shortest day of the year 67 of 10 hours 6 7 hours.
If the battery capacity is very much larger than the solar panel it may not even be necessary to have a regulator.
The v15 v50 v75 and v88 batteries charge efficiently from solar and have an always on mode which keeps them on whether or not a device is drawing any power.
It can handle a standard lead acid 12v battery like for a scooter or a car.
Connection and usage of this arduino solar charge controller is very simple there are 2 input leads from solar panel and and 2 output leads going to the lead acid battery.
Just switching on the valve if sunny and as long as sunny.
