Comment on Tell HN: We built a solar-charging wireless backup camera for your car

Comments

So, this is really cool, but I park underground both at work and home. I have doubts morning and evening sun is enough to charge this.

Also, what if I have something else already in the ODB port? It looks like I have to get a Y splitter or something, but having dangling cords under the steering wheel doesn't seem like a good idea.

Thanks!

Based on our design and testing, the solar should keep the vast majority of users charged up (it has for me!). As a backup we do support USB charging as well.

USB charging for the backup camera? How?
