Solar Charger Barrel Size?

[iceboi714]

Hey,

I haven't read much about barrel plugs so I could be mistaken.

On the product page it says there is a 2.1mm to 1.4mm adapter which fits the barrel fine.

But when reading about it off ladyada's site it mentions a 1.7mm plug.

Which one is it? or does both work fine?

Also with the Medium 2W Solar panel, the description says 3.5mm x 1.3mm, but off of Voltaic it says a 3.5mm x 1.1mm. Which is correct?

If someone can clear this up for me it would be great. Thanks.

the voltaic panels are 1.1mm
you can use 1.3-1.7mm (1.5mm nominal) with the jack

Similarly, the solar panel listed on this page: https://www.adafruit.com/products/200
sent me to buy this from digi-key: http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/e ... ND/1644534
which i ordered, but sadly it is not the right size......

voltaic's page says that i need: 3.5x1.1mm barrel connector.

would I be just as well off ordering this: http://www.voltaicsystems.com/micro-usb-f3511-adapter
in order to connect with an arduino?

thanks
