Hi Dan, I was searching for solar power solutions and came across your blog and I hope i can get your advice on solar issues.
I am working on a project that requires constant year round power for our device that works outdoor through all regular weather conditions(rain, snow etc). The voltage required is 3-5V and at least 500mAh. We are hoping that we can get a panel that is smaller than 1×1 foot. The main concern is the durability since it will be exposed to all kinds of weather outdoors.
Do you have any suggestions or ideas that can be of help? thanks!

Shop around the internet for the panel you want. The small panels that are hooked up to signs along the roads handle all kind of weather and I know that the solar panels on my roof handle all kinds other than maybe 6 inch hail or meterites. Smile. Good luck in your search, i am sure you will find what you need.
