cheap solar lantern lit up very briefly after 15 sec exposure https://peertube.wtf/videos/watch/716e1da7-82b2-47cc-b4d1-802c3a7a770f I bought this cheap solar powered battery operated LED mini lantern at the dollar store (buck and a half store more like) with the idea of using just the battery and solar-cell module. but I couldn't make myself tear it apart. I am thinking that the thing can function as a crude light meter: expose the photovoltaic cell for just a little while and then cover it up, and the LED lights up only a short while. that can be timed. ~Chara Mon, 17 Aug 2026 12:57:01 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://peertube.wtf cheap solar lantern lit up very briefly after 15 sec exposure https://peertube.wtf/lazy-static/avatars/45856119-df14-4b5f-bff8-4807ae2cfbd2.png https://peertube.wtf/videos/watch/716e1da7-82b2-47cc-b4d1-802c3a7a770f All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://peertube.wtf/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
