DONE
signal lamps are now leds

price 10USD / Lamp

TODO
building signaling circiut because old relay will not work due to low current

new signal relay is ready
original diagram was published on tehniq
i have modified it for our needs


biggest current is 50mA x4 when all 4 lamps are lit
so max current must be arroud 200 mA
i took 1A to be shure so for command i used an BD237
Q1=Q2=BC171
Q3=Q4=Q5=BD237

and also i have atached my simplified diagram

price for simplified diagram 3USD

Attachment 4754Attachment 4755Attachment 4756

solar pannel has arrived

36v 7A on load (252W real/250W rated) so i will need an dc2dc conv for 144v

dimendions 1000x1500x5 mm
price 200USD

will replace car roof and blend into the car


update
i will change the
36v 7A on load (252W real/250W rated)
dimendions 1000x1500x5 mm
with
36v 5A on load (180W real/180W rated)
dimendions 900x1100x5 mm
price 180USD
because the big one cant fit on the top of the car
and add an new one on the hood later
