This is fun science project that is cheap and you learn a little bit and you get to power your USB device!
How cool is that!?
I hope you like it. Please vote for me.
Unplug Everything From the Wall and Prepare to Be BLOWN AWAY!
Get off the grid!
Get These Parts...
Computer fan $14
MintyBoost kit $19.50 (www.adafruit.com/product/14)
Wind $0
Connect the Parts
2 wires! Just hook em up!
The MintyBoost will get it's power from the fan and control the output to a USB device.
You will get 500 amps at 5 V out if you put the wind into the MintyBoost.
(We do think you could do this with a transistor for less money but the MintyBoost has all the parts and connection for the USB. Just so you know, we don't work for the MintyBoost people!)
Plug in Your USB Device.
Get Some Wind, Dude!
I made a mount for the car window and cushioned it with tape so it wont hurt the window, but SEE OUR VIDEO to get more ideas. It says it all!
