Intro: All in One Portable Solar Power Unit: 220V + 12V + 5V + Automatic Battery Charge! ;)My starting point was to see if we can make portable solar power unit:

lightweightreliablerobustdifferent voltage outputs (including 220V AC)capable of storing energycapable to charge lead acid battery

Answer: Yes we can! ;)

If we well balance size and capacity of the unit, it will be much more useful.

When I search on web, found aluminum "suitcases" which can provide 220V AC output. They are usually very heavy due to lead acid batteries inside and not suitablecarry easily.

Another option was foldable panels fitted to fabric bases. Some of them has voltage regulators for DC output but only 2-3 different DC voltage levels...

Step 1:Main Parts RequiredWhen I found "Seifert Magnus Midi 63" toolcase in local Bauhaus, very delighted:) Eureka!it was perfectly matching size and specifications in my mind... Made of uv stable polypropylene and black in color. Dimensions 40.0x30.0x6.5cm and around 670 gramSize well suited for two 10 Watts solar panels, has "ribs" on edges to protect switches and other equipments perfectly. Has handle and locks.

If I design a case for only this purpose, it would be very similar to this :)

Also we need 12V DC to 220V AC inverter. Found this 100 Watts unit on the web.

Sanyo 4S lithium ion batteries with over / under voltage protecting and over temperature protecting circuits.

Two 10W solar panels.

7A Lead acid battery charge controller

Digital voltmeter from Dealextreme

Aluminum composite panels to hold solar panels

Diodes to reduce li-ion battery voltage to start inverter (later you can disable them to save power)

Switches, power outlets, screws etc.

Step 2:Preparing Parts 1Started to remove aluminum frames around solar panels. You should be very careful to not to break tempered glass on i t.

Also removed big connector terminals and make them smaller.

Then fix them to aluminum composite frames by Sika WT40 PU adhesive and test them how to fit inside of the box.

When closed, panels perfectly protected during transportation and storage...

Added two parallel set of three diodes (in series) to reduce top voltage of li-ion pack when required. As they gets hot, prepared cooling fins by aluminum "U" profile.These parts located on left side of the box, well protected ;)

Also bend a small aluminum sheet to hold voltmeter.


5/16


Step 3:Preparing Parts 2Also prepared paper labels for more professional look ;).

I'm printing them to photo paper by laser printer, then cut to required size and use transparent tape for surface protecting.

Back side, using double sided tape and 0.4mm grey pet film for digital screen.

I opened battery pack temporarily to show battery protection circuit here.

Then removed all "outer shell" of inverter to make it smaller...

Step 4:InstallationHere you can find schematics of solar power unit. It is Turkish, but added english explanations on it.

Edit:

Also added schematic as pfd download and gif format, in English :)

Detailed mounting photos with explanations added. Please note that space for additional batteries if required. Charging leads also stored here...

You can direct power to li-ion batteries or 12V external lead acid battery charging port.

Measure both batteries status whenever you want.

All connections completed based on this schematic and looks like spagetti :)

Actually you do need to open inside in normal operation, so it prepared as little bit tight. Also we have enough space for more li-ion battery packs (for more capacity) acables etc. inside...

Step 5:Finished! :)Here you can see control panel of unit.

Also a photo of open position added...

Everything on same (protected) surface and easily accessible.

Working perfectly...

Here are main specifications:

I' m planning to add led surface lights on empty surface for an improvement.

Cost is around 220 USD (including some mistakes) but value of the success is priceless :))

serdarosays: Jul 18, 2014. 10:42 AM REPI do not know in US market, but in Europe, Bauhaus stores (German originated) are selling it as a part of stackable box sets.

Here is the manufacturer:

www.seifertinn.com/

But anyhow, it is not necessary to have exactly same box, even you can built it by plywood ;)

tucker4instructablessays: Jul 15, 2014. 5:04 PM REPLooking for a portable unit that will keep a portable dental unit with drills running all day and be charged for the next day. This is for in the Philippines inremote areas. Can you unit do that? If not, is there a way to design one that would? Looking to make or buy one before January 2014. Would appreciate

your help.

serdarosays: Jul 16, 2014. 1:31 PM REPHi,

it depends on the power consumption of dental unit. Do you know wattage of it?

My unit is around 40Wh in capacity and 100Watts of maximum power continiously.

Probably you need "mobile" power unit instead of "portable".

Anyway, if you can tell how many hours it should work and what is power consumption than I can try to help you to find solution...

omikeosays: Jul 1, 2014. 9:42 PM REPwhat can you power with it for how long ?

serdarosays: Jul 2, 2014. 1:28 AM REPIts current capacity with four cells is around 40Wh.

For example I can use my soldering gun or my laptop or external harddisc

approx. 1 hour, my inkjet printer around 3 hours...

Of course you can add more batteries for more capacity; we have space in it ;)

omikeosays: Jul 2, 2014. 8:22 PM REPnice job well done, so it would be like a 40 watt bulb for an hour or a more efficient one for 4-6 hours

so from nuclear to light to electricity to chemical then back to electricity into either mechanical, light or heat, right ? do you know how efficient the

panels are ?

thanks, mike

serdarosays: Jul 2, 2014. 10:59 PM REPThis kind polycyrstalline panel efficiency should be around 16%...

1. usb charging port

2.AC or usb in port (wall charging)

3.lights to show how much battery is left

also can you send the schematics for the whole thing?

serdarosays: Jun 29, 2014. 11:51 PM REP1. I'm already using usb charging port in 12V outlet; things to put inside cigarette lighter socket.

2. Of course you can add wall charger and/or car charger to unit. This is mentioned somewhere in instructable comments, please check.

3. It has digital (much more sensitive than leds) voltmeter on it to show battery charge level for both batteries on it.

You can find schematic at the bottom of Step 4 in pdf format...

fhopkins1says: Jun 30, 2014. 7:17 PM REPi cant download it lol have to be a pro member get the pdf lol thats why i asked... sorry i should have been a bit more clear

serdarosays: Jul 2, 2014. 1:34 AM REPHi,

I also added English schematic in gif format. Hope this helps...

fhopkins1says: Jul 2, 2014. 2:20 AM REPi uh dont see it lol remember? Im not a pro member so i cant download the pdf like period and i see no changes to the page but i f u can email itto me thatd be nice :) [email protected] ive been looking to make one of these since everyone at my unit ran out of power out in the field anon the range sitting there for the entire day waiting for people to get done shooting... Not fun

Tyler_Luomasays: Jul 2, 2014. 1:15 PM REP

just right click the file name of the pdf the click save link as, i am not a pro member but i can do it :p

fhopkins1says: Jul 2, 2014. 2:25 AM REPlol never mind i found it i didnt have all the steps up i feel like an idiot

sal9000says: Jun 29, 2014. 2:58 PM REPSerdaro, could you please add a 120V AC 60hz output outlet so your Portable Solar Power Unit can also be useful in countries where most appliances use110/120V AC 60hz, and also add parts list with website and prices and find out if any stores where you bought parts can give a website where people canorder same part from? Please ask your closest sibling or best friends, etc. to help out with this task in some way. We all need at least one or two of the moefficient type SolarandWind, andacouplesecretzeropointenergy Portable Power Units with outlets to handle most of the appliances we use, plus instructionfor a supper long extension cord from the part that needs to be outdoors to the converter with outlets. That way, even if camping outdoors in woods, the cocould extend from the top of the canopy to your tent, outdoors above a cave type safety-from-storms place, or also reach the rooftop 5 floors above your 1sfloor apartment plus be move-able if someone messes with it in the initial location it is put! Thank you!

tberry7348says: Jun 23, 2014. 3:11 PM REPI love it looks awesome and professional i would like to see links on all the parts lists to pages giving full details of the parts used for example i googled"Sanyo 4S lithium ion batteries with over / under voltage protecting and over temperature protecting circuits" and nothing useful came up so i went to thesanyo website and it's pretty much useless. however the sanyo website does have some cool looking rack mountable batteries but no links as to where tobuy or pricing or exact stats.... I really love what ya came up with here i prefer a 120v, 12v, 5v(usb) output so i'd modify it a bit but that would be much easiwith links to the i tems used :P thanks for the awesome post

serdarosays: Jun 23, 2014. 11:19 PM REPHi,

actually I did not buy all parts from internet, but for batteries you cand find here for example:

http://www.dx.com/p/genuine-sanyo-18650-2600mah-re...

My battery pack is not ready made, 4S means four battery connected serial and protection circuit added later on. Batteries glued to each other by

cyronacrylate type glue...

ppereira14says: Jun 27, 2014. 6:31 AM REPI was looking for a higher capacity Solar System (400W or more). I found a really nice instructable. Heres a linkhttp://www.instructables.com/id/Apartment-SolSystem/

serdarosays: Jun 27, 2014. 7:15 AM REPThat seems like a good system; but concept and targets are completely different.

Instead of portability and versatility, it is a static system for apartments...

emerson.johnsays: Jun 23, 2014. 3:09 PM REP

This is a fine piece of work. It is not just practical, but is engineered to be simple, robust, and compact. Impressive, and it gets my vote!

serdarosays: Jun 23, 2014. 11:27 PM REPMy english is not enough to express how I feel...

Thank you very much! :))

tisaconundrumsays: Jun 25, 2014. 1:21 PM REPYou have my vote too. Very cool, thanks for the ible

serdarosays: Jun 26, 2014. 1:35 AM REPThanks very much! :)

msjordansays: Jun 21, 2014. 6:31 PM REPVery Nicely done and well thought out.

Maybe at some point you can expand this, with more mounting details.

Thank you for your work here

serdarosays: Jun 25, 2014. 12:48 AM REPDetailed mounting photos with explanations added ;)

serdarosays: Jun 22, 2014. 3:14 AM REPThanks very much msjordan.

Okay, I'm going to add more pictures about mounting ;)

Eric Tsays: Jun 24, 2014. 6:25 PM REPCan the batteries be charged by a vehicle when the sun does not shine?

serdarosays: Jun 24, 2014. 10:37 PM REPThis unit is not designed for that purpose. But actually can be added easily.

There are field chargers for rc modelers, for example:

http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__33407__Hobb...

I used it succesfully for my another project here to charge same type batteries:

Also we can add a small adaptor to charge unit over wall outlet.

gpnssays: Jun 22, 2014. 5:32 AM REPGuys! Anyone knows any affordable and EFFICIENT solar chargerfor smartphones? I'd like to go hiking with my offline maps app.

dbaum2says: Jun 22, 2014. 2:08 PM REPYou can go to harbor freight and buy a solar spotlight. The solar panel is about 5 inches by 8 inches. Just build a voltage regulator for it and voila! Sew apocket on the top of your backpack with clear vinyl and you can charge while you hike.

LaMar Solarcabinsays: Jun 22, 2014. 7:59 AM REPOK, so I have to ask: What equipment are you running that would require 220 volt power?

220V is usually only for very large motors or high power consumption appliances like ovens and washing machines and your small battery would not havethe cranking power for those and would not last even a minute of running time.

serdarosays: Jun 22, 2014. 11:08 AM REPAddition to gparker sr.' s message, I'm mostly using my laptop with this equipment. Sometimes 40W soldering gun, powered external harddiscs and myinkjet printer.

You can use up to 100Watts devices with it...
