PWM 30A Dual USB Solar Panel Battery Regulator Charge Controller 12/24V LCD (30A PWM solar charge controller)
Description:
Solar panels are a clean and ecological source of electricity.
Obtaining this energy, however, poses a number of challenges for device designers. The amount of energy produced by the panel is strongly dependent on the angle of incidence and the intensity of the light falling on the surface of the cells. This, in turn, leads to unstable power supply parameters at the output, as even shading a small part of the panel may drastically reduce the efficiency.
The optimal solution to the above-mentioned problems is the use of a set consisting of a solar panel, a battery and a charge controller. Such a set allows to ensure constant parameters of power supply to receivers, and also to store energy produced excessively for later use.
The 30A-PWM-LCD solar charge controller allows you to connect panels connected to each other both in series and in parallel - remembering not to exceed the permissible values of current and voltage at the input of the device. Due to the operating characteristics of the PWM controllers, it should be remembered that when the panels are connected in series, the rated voltage at the output for charging the battery is 24V.
PWM stands for Pulse Width Modulation. PWM charge control devices can be explained as an electrical switch between batteries. The switch can be quickly switch on and switch off. Therefore, desired voltage can be obtained to charge the batteries. The charge current will be slowly decreased as the batteries charged.

PiJuice HAT - A Portable Power Platform For Every Raspberry Pi (PiJuice HAT)
Description:
PiJuice Video
As one of the smallest systems around there are so many amazing things you could do with the Raspberry Pi if it was self-powered and portable. Introducing PiJuice! A fully uninterruptible power supply that will always keep your Raspberry Pi powered.
Our revolutionary PiAnywhere technology contained in every PiJuice HAT - is the best way to take your Pi off the grid! The real time clock (RTC) on board will let your Pi know what time it is even with no power input or internet connection. Alongside this is an integrated microcontroller (MCU) chip which will manage soft shut down functionality and a true low power deep sleep state and intelligent startup.
You will be able to always keep track of the charge levels and other info with the two built-in tri-coloured RGB LEDs, trigger events and scripts with the three programmable buttons and since the PiJuice will use up to just five of your GPIO pins (just power and I2C), the rest are free to diversify your project. The stacking header allows you to continue to use your existing HATs and add-ons with PiJuice.
Keep your Raspberry Pi running with solar, wind and other renewable power.
Ultimate integrated power is one thing but what if we could make the Raspberry Pi renewably powered too? Solar, wind, thermoelectric and other renewable power is free, clean, and green and we're proud to have developed an affordable and efficient renewable power solution for the Raspberry Pi! PiJuice is self-monitoring and, like a space satellite, can become a completely autonomous system. Use the PiJuice as part of an autonomous camera system, weather stations, off-grid desktops, and so many other great outdoor projects. View and buy the solar panels separately.PiJuice Video

- Replace the battery without downtime. Compatible with any single cell LiPo or LiIon battery
- Fully CE and FCC tested design. Battery safety tested also.
Technical Information
- The EEPROM can be disabled and its I2C address changed for increased compatibility with other boards
- BP7X battery - original battery from Motorola Droid 2 (A955) - 1820mAh battery
- Microcontroller is an ST Micro STM32F030CCT6 ARM Cortex-M0, 48MHz, F64KB, R8KB, I2C, SPI, USART, 2.4-3.6V
- Charge IC - BQ24160RGET Charger IC Lithium-Ion/Polymer, 2.5A, 4.2-10V
- Fuel gauge IC - LC709203FQH-01TWG Battery Fuel Gauge, 1-Cell Li-ion, 2.8%
- EEPROM - CAT24C32WI-GT3 EEPROM, I2C, 32KBIT, 400KHZ, 1V7-5V5
- Optional spring pin - Mil-Max 0929-7-15-20-77-14-11-0
- Compatible with any 4 pin battery on board that can be used with 00-9155-004-742-006 battery contacts from AVX including the BP7X, BP6X, and any compatible batteries including the 1600mAh and 2300mAh ones from CameronSino (CS-MOA853SL and CS-MOA855XL)
- There is an on board 4 pin screw terminal block for larger off board batteries. Any single cell LiPo / LiIon is compatible. However, you use your own sourced battery at your own risk. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND using a battery with an internal protection circuit and a NTC (temp sensor)
- Optional header for offboard button - connected to same output as SW1
- 6 pin breakout header - with two GPIO from the ARM Cortex-M0, Vsys, 5v0, 3v3, GND connections
- Header for optional off board solar panel / wind turbine etc.
- Optional RF Shield attachment - Harwin S02-20150300 (can also double as an inexpensive heatsink)
- Input voltage range - 4.2V 10V
- Output voltage - 3.3V and 5V
- Output amperage - maximum current at 5V gpio is 2.5A and at VSYS output 2.1A, but also this depends heavily on battery capacity. For BP7X have measured around 1.1A at 5V GPIO and around 1.6A at VSYS output. Obviously, this also depends heavily on the current draw demanded by the Raspberry Pi/device itself. To achieve a maximum of 2.5A it will need battery over 3500mAh.
