Solar Gameboy Advance

Step 6 Let your Gameboy charge in the sun

Flip the switch and set it in the window to let it charge. Most solar lights won't give you enough power to let the Gameboy work without batteries so it's best to let the solar panel just charge the batteries.

Congrats, your all done (and I just finished my first instructable). Go and celebrate.

A small one will provide almost no electricity...

but you don't want to carry a whole power plant with you, am i right?

1. This is a very small solar panel
2. I didn't buy it. It came out of solar garden lights
3. Try ebay http://home.search.ebay.com/solar_Electrical-Solar_W0QQfromZR34QQsacatZ20595

You don't just have to use NiCD batteries: I've charged NiMH batteries with this type of setup.
