Hi
I have a Solar panel at pick showed 4.98V (+/-) on my meter.
I have a circuit that works with one AAA battery showing 1.54V on my meter.
I need to power the circuit with the solar panel, so I take it that I need a current regulator using a transistor... I think... (???? I'm not sure as my knowledge in electronics is around non-existing)
What I see as a problem is that the solar Panel is at it's pick only in bright sun, what happens if it delivers only, say, 3.9V (cloudy moment)? Will the regulator keeps it at 1.5V anyways? or it will drop below?
Thanks for your help...
