It's possible you could find a solar charger but the ratings may be optimistic, especially since you seem to be in the PNW. | |

| Jun 11, 2021 at 3:20 | comment | added | DKNguyen | Huh. I didn't realize electric cars were like that. That follows large electric radio control aircraft logic where the controls and radio run off a small battery and the motor runs off a large battery. You don't really worry about the small battery running out since the large battery that powers the propeller always runs out first. FYI, 420mA@12V is quite a lot for something battery powered all the time. It would suck if your cameras really drew that all the time. That would kill the battery in a car in about a week. Maybe you should get motion activated cameras instead. | |
