Thank you for your comments. Yes, it's just a concept, so it's small and not so powerful on the other hand it's a portable device, so if it will be too big it wouldn't be good either. But there is always room for improvements ;)
I've been kicking around the idea of using one of these computer-free autonomous trackers where, instead of connecting them to electric motors, the micro panels power solenoid switches that just complete the circuit to power larger motors on linear actuators in order to track with a full-size array. Have you considered or gamed out this idea?
That is great and I want to help my daughter to this for her school project would you help me how should I find a 6v with 3RPM or 2.5 Rpm I look for it on Amazon couldn’t find it I need your help and if you could you send the the to order
There are small 12v solar , will have plenty of torque too or use step up booster module @@MukGyver weld mount one to another with plate , I too will be having a go , looks like fun idea . That could work smoothly .
Absolutely lovely and smart idea! 👍
Thank you!
You are a genius!!!! I want to do it!
Thank you! It's very simple you can diy.
simple, clever and efficient.
Thanks!
This is brilliant!
Great use of the suns energy! I want to add the tracking system to a full 15 Amp collector. Would have to add stronger motors?
I would think that more powerful motors would definitely be needed, but the general principle of the tracker would remain the same.
The sun moves slowly, so gear ratios are your friend here
That's cool, I could actually use that.
Very interesting and creative
Thank you!
Very nice information
Thanks
Noice! Well done sir!
Thanks!
Very cool 👍
Amazing job...Peace
Clever man !!!
Glad you liked it.
As a novelty it's interesting. For practical use, it's too small to be of value. No weather resistance either. Quirk.

where are your wires, also will there be no electricity left if you use the main solar panel to connect one motor?
Where would it be possible to add a battery so it stores all the energy it has taken during the day?
You should attach additional solar panel for power generation and storage to the battery. See my other video.

Unfortunately, I did not have time to consider this idea.

I see a lot of options, you can buy dc motor with similar parameters, not necessarily the same.
i cant find the 6V 2.5RPM motor, can you attach links to where i can buy one (there's no stores here)
Try AliExpress.
can you plss provide the circuit
It's that simple
You would understand
12v car wiper motors ? Make for a great propeller , just have it chasing the sun ?
Will work, but solar panels of appropriate power will be required to run wiper motors.

Very nice, could you publish the plans to replicate it in my project...
You can make it by yourself easily.
Well done if you can give us circuit diagram it's helpful 👍👍👍👍
There is no need for circuit diagram here, everything is clear. Solar panels connects directly to DC motors. See picture: ibb.co/nbWMCYQ
