Description
This solar power management module is designed for 6V-24V solar panels. It can charge a 3.7V rechargeable 14500 Lithium-ion battery via a solar panel or USB connection and provides 5V 1A regulated output.
The module features MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) function and multi-protection circuits, making it able to keep working with high-efficiency, stability and safety.
The module is suited for solar-powered, low-power IoT and other environmental protection projects.
Warning: Only use rechargeable 14500 lithium-ion batteries! (battery not included)
Features
- Supports MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) function, maximizing the efficiency of the solar panel
- Supports solar panel / USB connection battery charging
- For 6V-24V solar panel, DC-002 jack input or screw terminal input
- Onboard MPPT SET switch, select the level closed to input level to improve charging efficiency
- Two 5V output interfaces: pin headers and USB port
- An onboard high capacity aluminium electrolytic capacitor and SMD ceramic capacitor, reducing the ripple for stable performance
- 14500 battery holder and PH2.0 battery connector, for connecting different kinds of 3.7V rechargeable lithium-ion batteries
- Several LED indicators, for monitoring the status of solar panel and battery
- Multi protection circuits: over charge / over discharge / reverse protection / over heat / over current
