#solar phone update:
It is cloudy where live, so the small panel did not make any power today. It would have been at most 30-40% of a phone charge. I had to get the bigger one out.
The bigger panel produces as much power as the smaller one does on a sunny day, maybe a bit more. It is a 30w panel vs a 3.5 watt positioned out of direct sunlight vertically (inefficient placement).
I do think more carefully about how much the screen is on. Planning before looking at it helps.
