I have this old low-cost phone which was the first one offered to my kid when he was 15 (he is now 21), before he moved to a more fashionable model. I noticed that without a SIM card, only on WIFI, the phone needed to be recharged not after 1 or 2 days, but only after 2 weeks! So this small device, plugged to a small solar panel, could be the perfect always-on personal web server. The site that you are browsing right now is hosted on it.

Hardware

The phone is an entry-level Motorola G7 Play, purchased in 2019, worth nothing today. It was used by my son for less than 2 years, then dormant since. The display is slighly shattered, but it doesn't matter, as I use it headless.

I bought a small solar panel on Amazon, 10W produced by 2 plates of 17x17 cm.

Operation

It's too early to say. Lets see how it goes over time (a few months), and if a relatively old phone can find a second life and be used as an autonomous web server, running solely on free photons and electrons.

But for now, we are in june and the battery level is almost always at 100%.
