Hi fellow Lemmings,

Hopefully some of you are knowledgeable about electronics. I know nothing really. But, I just found my old LG POP (GD510), which has a back panel which houses a small solar panel. I thought it could be a fun personal project to try to put that tiny panel to use.

Do you think it is worth tinkering with? I’m guessing it could only put out a negligable amout of energy, but maybe it’s usable for something. If it is, could anyone point me to some resources to try and understand how it works before I solder anything?

Also, as a general question: have you ever done a project like this, where you repurposed an old electronic device of yours?

    I’ll check it tomorrow! I didn’t think it would be highly useful, just sounded like a fun project!
