  • Hi,

    I want to see if I can convert the watch to "solar" power,
    by adding Vishay Photodiode "BPW34" (https://www.vishay.com/docs/81521/bpw34.­pdf)
    in the corners (left/right to GPS module, and same on bottom)

    According to website, the power consumption:
    ( https://www.espruino.com/Bangle.js#power­-consumption)
    is "100% CPU usage running JavaScript - 7mA",
    and from what I found, this about the same as one Photodiode produces in full sun light,
    so theoretically, it looks possible.

    Does anybody know if this is possible regarding the circuit, or any limitations ?

    Also space-wise, I was searching to see if the files of the case and inner frame models, are available anywhere for 3D printing, but couldn't find it, are they available ?

    Thanks for your help,
    Si.
