Solar Panel Calculator

An interactive calculator for solar panel charging calculations, built with React and TailwindCSS.

Features

• Real-time calculation of charging parameters
• Interactive inputs for solar panel specifications
• Battery configuration options
• Automatic current calculation based on voltage and power
• Charging time estimation in hours and days
• Example case study with common configurations

Technical Stack

• React 18
• TypeScript
• TailwindCSS
• Vite

Getting Started

1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Start the development server:

   npm run dev

Usage

1. Enter your solar panel specifications:
   • Voltage (V)
   • Power (W)
2. Input battery details:
   • Single battery capacity (mAh)
   • Number of batteries
3. View the results:
   • Charging current (mA)
   • Total battery capacity
   • Estimated charging time

Calculations

The calculator uses these fundamental electrical formulas:

• Current (A) = Power (W) / Voltage (V)
• Charging time (hours) = Battery Capacity (mAh) / Charging Current (mA)
