How To Charge Your Mobile Phone With 12V Battery


 How To Charge Your Mobile Phone With 12V Battery

Charging your smartphone while camping outside is not always easy. I am showing you how to charge your phone by using a car battery and a moped battery. You can also use the gadget with any kind of 6V-24V power source.

The video already talks about the most important facts. But I will also give you some more information about the project in the next steps.


It's time to choose your circuit!

You may have noticed that I built 2 cicuits inside this gadget, which basically have the same function. But they have their own pros and cons:


LM7805:


+ very simple, perfect for beginners


+ very cheap


+useful when you only need a little current


- efficiency is horrible with higher voltages (24V --> 21%--> becomes a heater)


(12V --> 42%--> not nice)


LM2576:


- more complex circuit

-More parts, more costs


+ efficiency is quite good for a DIY phone charger (around 80%)


You can decide which one you want to use or maybe you build both. It is up to you.


You only need 3 parts for this circuit. If you got all the parts then follow the schematic to create your circuit. Feel free to store your new gadget in an awesome case.
