To convert the output from solar panel of 3 - 5 Volts to 12 Volts you can use a DC-to-DC converter integrated circuit. The most common is the IC7660. Go to a data sheet site and download the pdf data sheet, then check the application examples. http://www.datasheetarchive.com/ http://category.alldatasheet.com/index.jsp?components=7660 IC These circuits do not handle large amounts of power, so don't get your expectations to high...
