Portable Solar Panel Powered Mini Radio with Speakers?

0K.
So I was thinking of making a mini portable solar panel powered radio for my science fair project.But I don't have any idea of how to get started with this.

Here are some of the requirements I need for this radio . . .

-must be MINI SIZED and portable
-must be S0LAR PANEL P0WERED
-must have some kind of speakers

Some other things that I wouldn't mind having on the radio are . . .

-a headphone jack

Very, very simple!

Find a small portable radio – Radio Shack has some nice ones with potential. Your best bet are the ones powered by two penlight batteries, since you’re power consumption requirements are small.

Then, you can source a couple of solar panels – again, Radio Shack will work well. Find ones with sufficient power output – you’ll need sufficient sized panels to put out the same power as the batteries the radio came with.

From there, its simply a point of tying in the panel wiring to the old battery terminal wires, and you’re done.
