[Elecraft] re: solar power

Hi

I should mention that my controller operates the same as the MicroM+ but I
use a different circuit and different IC. The circuit is much simpler and
more accurate because of the precision band gap reference and precision
comparators in the IC. Also the LED on my controller will not light if the
panel is not providing enough voltage to charge the battery. The kit is $30
and includes all parts and fiberglass circuit board.
