Energy harvesting with Hamster

The SENOP HAMSTER can be connected to various types of external energy sources in order to charge the battery inside the harvesting unit. The SENOP HAMSTER can harvest energy from external energy sources (e.g. solar panels) to a SENOP Li-Ion battery. Charging times depend on the energy source. For example, the battery charging time with a solar panel (with maximum output current) or from a vehicle´s power source, is approximately 4 hours.
