well, we are not good enough neither for the design part nor manufacturing. to my recollection, there were some diode or other that should be somewhere. its a long time ago... cant remember the versions either. so, we want the masters at Adafruit to do it. How do i suggest it?

it should probably have the latest of adafruits solar charger as well, to get rid of the cap.

#

1.0 is the latest

There is a contact form on their website where you can recommend products to carry. You can recommend a product especially a feather that you would like to have designed that you (and I) would purchase. Can also bring it up during ask an engineer live show. The more people ask for a certain thing the more likely they are to design a PCB for it. I would certainly buy a few!

@wanton talon I snagged the brd and sch files from your hackaday article. Will take a look into them with EasyEDA when I have time. What program did you use to design the PCB? just because it's a .brd or .sch doesn't necessarily mean I can import it. If it's designed with Eagle then I can definitely import it.

i have trouble remembering. my student did this, and he had Eagle (via Fusion) . i doubt we had fritzing. i think we "stole" some files from adafruit and added things. but from what i remember i got nervous about feeding current the wrong way, hence the need of a diode somewhere. or we though of it. well, dont count on it to be correct. unfortunately, i cant find any files now. but your very welcome to use whatever you find useful!
but id be a nice thing to have, just plug in to any feather project and make it solar powered, with stats.
