Thank you guys for the insights...... Too late though.. [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-cb009e4f-53d8-4fd9-b265-d334681f5434/5852.contentimage_5F00_403.png:16:16]

Nice update on your solar powered project entry. Care should be taken to insure that over light loads that the solar panel output voltage remains in safe region. This can be achieved in similar manner as [mention:cff82ed12b714001a1ba5205f2cb553c:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] did on his Solar Bubble Blaster project, or through the use of a switchable load (like a resistor or LED) which can keep the open circuit voltage in a reasonable range.

Good luck on your continued progress on your project (and on getting some sunlight for testing your robot).

Hi Sneha,

I am assuming that you are using the bread board for display of the components for this presentation as many of your placements are meaningless electronically.

Nice work - if you win I think you need to buy a bigger breadboard [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-cb009e4f-53d8-4fd9-b265-d334681f5434/contentimage_5F00_938.png:16:16]
