Hello all !
I have 4 supercapasitors connected in parallel to harvest energy from very weak power source ( indoor
PV cell or similar ). As voltage across capacitors reach some level ( for example 0.2-0.3 volt ) I swap wires to
connect supercapacitors in series to get 0.8-1.2 volts and unload energy to supercapasitor # 5. Duration of
equalization is about 60 seconds, current is 3A and drops to 0A.
As of now I do it simply by using dpdt toggle switches. Please advise circuit to automate this process.
Thank you!
