ModSol Prototyping Suggestions
To the readers, this problem has been solved due to the hard work and willpower of the Malawi Energy '18 Team. A meeting with the local university, Polytechnic, was successful in finding an expert, Andrew Ndalama (sidenote: his name translates to Andrew Money, as if he wasn't enough of a legend already). Andrew was an outstanding help, drawing up a circuit for us and then even designing the circuit and parts list for us. This is a massive credit to the team, as without their desire to progress the prototype we would not have had the meeting with Andrew, and ultimately would not have solved the problem.
P.S. The trip to Polytechnic also introduced us to a potential stakeholder for the Agriculture Team, and gave us the opportunity to come back and deliver a presentation in the university to take on some interns!
