Solar power part2

Solar Powered Charger Part 2
I got hold of a multimeter and tested the solar charger I made. 4.5v at 100mA :) it charged 2xAA 800mAh in about 6 hours ... It's great to know that the parts are all but free (scrap from my dad's garden . old night lights) , and the power is free as charged batteries. So my next project is going to be making a home AC power backup. I'll be using a deep cycle battery and a 16volt solar panel with a meter + DC -> AC converter like ya get in cars. :)
