Thanks your answer Will, well, seems not easy to give a good use to a solar
panel in the HB
If I want to connect the a panel to the HB charging circuit, it must be
12V/500mA like the AC adaptor? or with less current (maybe 200 mA) , it can
still use that circuit?

Thanks

Jose Luis

If your calculations are correct, and your solar panel provides 40 mA, and • you get maybe 6 hours
of strong, useful sunlight per day, then I figure you'd need eight solar • panels and three battery
packs, minimum, to keep the HB running all the time, without any motors or • other devices.

Hi,

Today I have tested the time the HB can stay powered with his battery • (just
the board, without any other device attached), its work during aprox. 8 • hs,
so because the batteries I use are 600 mA, I believe that the consume of • the
board is around 75 mA, can it be right? or my batteries are in bad
condition? Someone has made the same test before?

Thank You
