Project Description
This is a Solar Charger or an Emergency Light.
It runs on a 6660 mAh battery. The unit mAh measures the battery's capacity and 6660 represents the battery's ability to deliver 6.6 amps per hour. Amps, is the abbreviation for amperes that means it gagues the amount of electrons that passes through a given point with about 6.241 × 1018 electrons. In other words, this battery will be able to provide 24 hours of light source to a given object or space, or multiple phone charges. To maximize the charging of this device using solar energy, or photovoltaic methods, the angle of the solar panels can be modified.
This type of technology can be classified as an Open Source Appropriate Technology (OSAT). In other words, there are two components to this technology. The first is that this is a technology that is available to any user to view or edit. The second, appropriate technology, means that this is a technology that is easily and economically used from readily available material indigenous to local communities to meet their needs.
