Q:
Hi, I have a LED circuit that uses a joule thief system to power a LED. Could I add this into the system so where the LED circuit demands 1.5v AA batt, I could connect it to the motor output of the super charge capacitor board? Thanks
Asked by: James Brady
A:
Hi James, Thank you for your email, I have not looked very deeply into this but I would recommend against it.. As I understand it the joule thief would keep trying to supply power to the capacitor. The circuit we have has a circuit for charging and a circuit for discharging. A switch is used to switch between these two. Normally a set voltage is fed into the circuit by the USB meaning the max voltage that can be put in is capped whereas I worry that the joule thief would keep feeding power to the circuit even when the limit was reached potentially causing the capacitor to pop. As mentioned I have not dug deep into this but I would be concerned about this.

Q:
Could I connect this to your solar panel kit to charge. If yes, how would I connect it? Thanks Paul
Asked by: paul
A:
Hi there, With 5V solar panels this should work. You would get rid of the USB cable and instead put the cables from the solar panel into the terminal block instead. Best Regards Cullen

Q:
Hello, Can I substitute the 1F supercap to a higher capacity (i.e. 5.5V - 10F) one? It will take longer to charge yet also longer to discharge or able to take more power hungry components.
Asked by: Kanouras Antonis
A:
Hello Antonis, Thank you for your question, this would work absolutely fine as you say it would just take longer to charge and longer to discharge. Best Regards Cullen Lewis
