I'm looking to power these ESP32 boards on rooftops: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000396836096.html
They have a significant start up load, 70mA continuous, 200-300mA peak, so I'm looking to add a capacitor to help booting.
I'm thinking to use a 30w 18v solar panel.
To connect the panel to this 18v capacitor bank https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33010692724.html
And then power the device with this 12v >5v regulator that has low voltage disconnect to add hysteresis https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32854250040.html
Is this likely to work?
