  • Construction – ETFE
  • Connection – Solder pads (no connector included)

Ideal For

  • Low-power IoT sensors and remote monitoring
  • Trickle-charging small LiPo batteries
  • Solar-powered wearables and badges
  • Educational solar energy projects

Package Contents

  • 1× 5 V 0.3 W ETFE Solar Panel
Tip: No connector is included — solder wires to the pads on the back and attach a terminal block or barrel jack. Need more power? See the 0.6 W and 1.2 W versions.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

IoT
Short for Internet of Things, meaning physical devices that connect to networks or the internet to send data or be controlled remotely. It matters if you want projects such as connected sensors, remote controls or classroom data-logging activities.
LiPo
A lithium polymer rechargeable battery commonly used in portable electronics projects. It matters because LiPo batteries need correct charging circuitry and care, and this board includes hardware intended for that battery type.
Terminal block
A connector used to join wires together in a neat, removable, or serviceable way. For this product, it helps split one power input into several outputs without soldering.
