20 mW average maximum available power supply for headphones. Add some for the circuitry and radio, I bet you can manage at 500mW. 1368 W/m^2 solar energy on ea

20 mW average maximum available power supply for headphones. Add some for the circuitry and radio, I bet you can manage at 500mW.
1368 W/m^2 solar energy on earth on average, or 0.137 W/mm^2 = 137 mW/mm^2. Let's assume 15% solar cell efficiency, so you'll get 20 mW/mm^2 out.
500mW / 20 mW/mm^2 = 25 mm^2. That's how large cells it be exposed to the sun.
Cover both the headphones and cables, and you'll be able to charge any batteries enough to survive the night.
- throwanem 11y agoYou started out talking about wireless headphones. What cables?
- Natanael_L 11y agoBetween your earbuds.
