I am working on a project to make a Solar Charger for a Mobile Phone so I needed to flatten the battery on my mobile for testing. The way I did this was to leave my phone BluTacked to the window of my shed for the afternoon running the rrTimeLapse app watching the clouds roll by. To make it interesting you could try to count the number of planes that fly over.

The first part of the Solar Charger project will be uploaded later tonight and just covers testing a cheap bargain store battery powered charger unit. Part 2 will be the solar conversion.

Total time 5 1/2 hours time lapsed into about 4 minutes

Most of my projects are for my grandchildren to enjoy. OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by adding features or painting. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap.
