Easy IKEA SUNNAN hack (non destructive)

I always have a lot of stuff moving in the shop-window of my toy shop. To make it a bit lighter on battery consumption and better for the environment  I use the IKEA SUNNAN to make toys solar-powerd. The SUNNAN costs about 15,- euros in Holland and has a great solar battery charger with the batteries included.

This Hack is easy and non destructive to both toys and SUNNAN.

So the light from the lamp powers itself and the crane??

hihi, LOL. Would be great if the lamp could power itself :)

Well, the solar module from the lamp powers the crane. Or it can be put back in the lamp.

Ohh. I see. But that would be cool to connect both the lamp and the crane to the solar supply.

Twee in serie is misschien wel net genoeg voor een Arduino. (heb ik nog niet geprobeerd)
