Instruksikan pengguna Honus tidak hanya membangun MightMintyBoost untuk melakukan geek dan memamerkan keterampilan proyek elektroniknya (meskipun ini proyek kecil yang bagus untuk melakukannya), ia serius tentang tenaga surya dan dampak energi bersihnya:
Apple has sold over 30 million iPodTouch/iPhone units- imagine charging all of them via solar power…. If every iPhone/iPodTouch sold was fully charged every day (averaging the battery capacity) via solar power instead of fossil fuel power we would save approximately 50.644gWh of energy, roughly equivalent to 75,965,625 lbs. of CO2 in the atmosphere per year. Granted that’s a best case scenario (assuming you can get enough sunlight per day and approximately 1.5 lbs. CO2 produced per kWh used.) Of course, that doesn’t even figure in all the other iPods, cell phones, PDAs, microcontrollers (I use it to power my Arduino projects) and other USB devices that can be powered by this charger- one little solar cell charger may not seem like it can make a difference but add all those millions of devices together and that’s a lot of energy!
Nya MightyMintyBoost adalah pendorong baterai untuk perangkat yang dapat mengisi melalui USB dan menerima arus masuk dari panel surya di atas (atau, pada hari-hari berawan dapat diisi melalui charger dinding atau port USB di komputer Anda). Tekan tautan di bawah untuk melihat panduan lengkapnya dan buat MightyMintyBoost Anda sendiri.
