GREEN CUBE 2
After making the project green cube, I realized that I should have incorporated more solar panels into the model as the two wind turbines were not producing enough power and the hand-cranked generator was very intricate to use as it was attached at the back of the cube.
After looking at all these problems I have decided to make the mark 2 version of the green cube or maybe this one, I'll name black cube (looks much better than the previous one!).
Wind turbines will be at the back, different from the previous model where they were in the middle.
Also, the Motors used in the previous model were normal DC motors that didn't produce enough output but now I'll look for better options.
Got this idea from a USB car charger
Two sockets are there for inserting the solar panels from sides and these sockets are connected internally to the main circuit.
I Tried a lot of designs for the Wind turbines
The wind turbine connects to the main circuit when inserted into the channel fully
Strangely, I got the design inspiration of the wind turbines from a lamp post.
Final Product with Four solar panels(2 on the side,1 on top and 1 attached via cable), Better and efficient wind turbines and a separate hand-cranked generator which can be attached to the cube via cable and charge the Li-ion battery.
