It provides a reliable 6-volt output at up to 2 watts, making it ideal for charging batteries or powering microcontrollers like Arduino and ESP32. With its sturdy construction and pre-soldered leads, integration into your next prototype is straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePeak Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNominal Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOpen Circuit Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e~7.0V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShort Circuit Current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e~0.35A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCell Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMonocrystalline\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e136 x 110 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You Can Build With This\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/kit-indoor-weather-station\"\u003eSolar-powered weather station using ESP8266 or Arduino Nano\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBattery charger for 3.7V Li-ion cells via TP4056 module\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/kit-smart-garden-watering-kit-with-arduino-mega-plus-sensor\"\u003eAutomatic garden watering system with moisture sensor and pump\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePortable phone charger with a boost converter module\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis panel works with any microcontroller that accepts 5V–6V input, such as Arduino Uno, ESP32, or Raspberry Pi Pico. When paired with a Li-ion charger module (TP4056) and a boost converter, it can supply regulated 5V USB power. Ensure your project’s total current draw stays below 300mA for optimal performance in full sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWiring Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnect the red wire to the positive terminal and black to ground. For battery charging, use a dedicated charge controller; do not connect the panel directly to batteries. In low-light conditions, output may drop below 6V—test with a multimeter before connecting sensitive electronics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from Compoden\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs this compatible with Arduino Uno?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the panel outputs 6V which can be regulated to 5V for Arduino. Use a voltage regulator or connect via the Vin pin if using an external shield.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan I charge a 12V battery with this panel?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, the voltage is insufficient for a 12V battery. It is designed for 3.7V–6V systems. You could use it with a boost converter, but efficiency may be low.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eDoes it come with a stand or mounting holes?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe panel has four mounting holes on the corners for easy attachment to enclosures or brackets.
