I used 26 gauge silicone coated wire to hook everything up, and soldered the battery directly. You will need a rechargeable 1.5 volt battery, and a 2 volt solar panel. The black round caps are the solar panels, and the cap allows me to tuck the circuit board and battery up inside it.Ī basic solar LED will need a small circuit board piece, one 5252 part, and a 220uH inductor. My workbench is all setup to make some solar lights. You want to make sure your container is fully sealed against water, as water is one of the enemies of solar LED lights. The solar panel could be glued on top of that with silicone, and then drill a small hole for wires, and the circuit board and battery could be placed under the plexiglass lid with silicone. If you make your own, you could use a piece of plexiglass to make a cover for a jar or candle holder glass container. Or you can make your own container out of a jar, a candle holder, or like in my case, shot glasses. While I have repaired many of these solar devices, in some I’ve had to replace the electronics completely. Will it be to replace an existing solar LED device, where the electronics were damaged, or you can’t get to work? You can replace the circuit board with one you make, and still use the existing solar panel in the device. It’s up to you how to mount the electronics.
