Hello -
I'm looking for a solar panel or panels to supply up to 0.5A at around 6V (for powering a small IP camera), preferably with built-in regulation, for permanent installation outdoors. The camera can't see at night, so battery backup is not required. The ones at RS, Maplin and Farnell seem to be either tiny ones that can't supply the current, or hefty and expensive 12V units that would require external step-down circuitry.
It looks like my combination of requirements will cost around £200 - any ideas on how I might achieve them more cheaply?
Thanks
Simon
