Here I have explained how to build a solar inverter circuit for a 1.5 ton air conditioner (AC) for powering the AC during daytime directly from solar panels without depending on grid power. The idea was requested by Mr. Subhashish. Main Specifications A 1.5 ton air conditioner is equivalent to an approximately 1.5 x 1200 […]

How to Make a Solar Panel Optimizer Circuit
The proposed solar optimizer circuit can be used for getting the maximum possible output in terms of current and voltage from a solar panel, in response to the varying sun light conditions. A couple of simple yet effective solar panel optimizer charger circuit are explained in this post. The first one can be built using […]
Best 3 MPPT Solar Charge Controller Circuits for Efficient Battery Charging
An MPPT as we all know refers to maximum power point tracking which is typically associated with solar panels for optimizing their outputs with maximum efficiency. In this post I have explained the 3 best MPPT controller circuits for efficiently harnessing solar power and charging a battery in the most efficient manner. Where an MPPT […]
Make this Solar Powered Fence Charger Circuit
A Fence charger or energizer is an equipment which is used for charging(electrifying) a fence or a boundary in order to protect the inside premise from human or animal interventions. Since these boundaries are mostly of large fields and parks, are normally away from the main cities, and powering them through some renewable option becomes […]
Homemade Solar MPPT Circuit – Poor Man’s Maximum Power Point Tracker
MPPT stands for maximum power point tracker, which is an electronic system designed for optimizing the varying power output from a solar panel module such that the connected battery exploits the maximum available power from the solar panel. Introduction NOTE: The discussed MPPT circuits in this post do not employ the conventional control methods like “Perturb and […]
I/V Tracker Circuit for Solar MPPT Applications
Optimizing power by tracking is the key feature which makes solar MPPT concept so unique and efficient, where the complex and non-linear I/V curve of the solar panel is tracked and switched for creating maximum optimal conditions for the connected load. The Circuit Concept I have been trying hard to design something that would in […]
