Powerbank solar station

This is my very first 3D design and I hope you will like it 🙂

This is a versatile stand created for charging USB power banks using a small and thin USB solar panel. Thanks to the solar panel in front, the power bank is not exposed to direct sunlight. I have left the stand compact because the weight of a power bank will provide sufficient stabilization.

The stand may also be used for charging mobile phones and tablets or just keeping devices fully charged when not used.

In the present example, I am using a 10 Ah Xiaomi Powerbank that fits perfectly into the device slot and a thin solar panel found in common china shops like banggood.com or gearbest.com.

Dimensions:

Plate: 10x6cm

Solar slot width: 3mm

Device slot width: 15mm

Printing details:

Printed on Ender 3 Pro using Geeetech PLA, 200 °C / 60 °C

Infill 40%, Grid (Just 20% on picture, which is insufficient for a smooth surface)

No support needed

Printing speed 50mm/s

Printing time like 6 hours

Recommendation:

You may use Velcro tape for securing the solar panel on windy days.
