How the tp4056 work.
The first would be using a 6v 1w solar panel.
For simple smartphone charger.
This diode is rated at forward current of 1a with peak reverse voltage rating of 1000v.
The second would be with the same solar panel but to charge 3 7v lithium batteries.
Looking at this board we can see that it has the tp4056 chip along with few other.
This takes our aa power.
