Solar Mobilephone

Mobilephones operate on DC . So we can use Solar panels to charge our Mobilephones.

Only a 10 W or 5 Watts Solar panel is needed to charge a 6 Volts battery. The Voltage of Solar panel should be greater that voltage rating of Battery.Else Battery wont get charged.


Solar panels can be integrated at back covering of Mobile Phones.

Or you can use a Thin Film Solar panel and an adapter to charge solar panel in the same way you charge cellphone from AC outlet.


To avoid over charging of battery you should use a charge controller.

To avoid back flow of dc from Battery to Solar Panel you should include a Blocking diode.

If Current flow from Battery to Solar Panel of your Phone , then there is chance of damage of Solar Cells.

Using Solar panels will help you to charge your phone at any place where there is light. It can also help you to reduce your electricity bills.

Solar Mobilephones are not commenly available.But in future it will come .

Its better to use reusable energy sources than traditional energy sources.

Thank You.
