I am planning to go off the grid due to the pandemia, to an isolated village. I am working remotely I am looking for a solar approach to power my laptop ACER A5 515. The charger is rated 40W.
I was considering using a 100 Watt panel, an inverter and the power charger. However I was wondering if its possible only adapt those 12 volts to 19 to use with my laptop. And which could be the best way to avoid damaging the electronics.
I think it should be a waste of power using an 100 watt panel from the solar controller, then a 120 v inverter to connect the laptop charger.
I could use the laptop battery to store any excess energy (I only the laptop to be on by 9 hours at day)
Also I will need to have my phone connected as I will using the data tethering and a rechargeable usb light to use at night.
Thanks in advance for any ideas or suggestions.I am looking for an starting point to start constructing this setup
to an isolated village
... that sounds like a totally irresponsible action on your part .... isolated villages usually do not have the medical facilities to handle the influx of covid cases when the virus has been brought in by people like you ... it endangers you and everyone else in the village \$\endgroup\$
