Leaf solar powered has limitations that regular leaf doesn't. The power available to us when we are plugged into a wall socket is limitless and can push through power spikes within appropriate voltage. This makes this project so much more interesting than a simple band setup.
The question about how long my leaf charge will actually last is one that has answers which are in direct symbiosis with the answers we plug into the question, how loud does leaf want to play?
I love these problems.
Integral to all of this are the photovoltaic cells which we will use to power our system, and charge our batteries. We ordered about 200 watts of broken solar cells. We use these because it's way cheaper, and it's re-using scrap and Leaf likes re-using. 200 watts worth is 2 pounds of broken solar cells which comes out to around 50$ for them all including shipping...
