How to make a Heating and Cooling Jacket

Step 8 Solar Panel (continued)

 1. Put the sew-on conductive snaps on the hood of the shell that snap to the shell. Also put another set of the same snaps on the inside of the shell that snap into the liner. 
    *Make sure that you keep the snaps connected all positive or all negative. See photos for more information.

2. The snaps on the inside of the liner will need to be circuited down to the LiPower charger. The charger should be placed by the Arduino.

*** Make sure not to touch any of the other circuits, since there are so many at this point.***

3.One snap should be the positive and the other should be the negative from the solar panel. Then sew in the circuit to the chager. You will notice that one side of the LiPower charger is labeled (-) & (c); the other side (right side) has a (-) & (+).

4. The left side, or the side with the (-) & (c), is the side you connect the circuits of the snap too. The (c) is the positive snap and the (-) is the negative snap. Sew them into there. You are now done with the snap circuit.

5. Now you need to connect the charger to the Lilypad so it is able to get power. The right side, or the side with just the (-) & (+), will connect to the corresponding symbols on the Lilypad. Once you have that circuited, you have connected your charger to the Lilypad.

6. There is a place for you to connect the charger to the lithium battery. The battery simply plugs in; it should be quite easy.

-The solar panel should now be connected and working. The charger directs the current, so it should flow in the right direction. You should not havany problems with this.-
