Hi
i want to add a solar panel to recharge the battery for an Arduino data logger.
What combination of solar panel, converter and battery should I use.
i want to keep it fairly small if possible.
Thanks M
Hi Marcus,
Check out this other thread where I suggested a solar setup for a similar project:
Hi, I am setting up a system of environmental sensors in different locations, outdoors in a tropical environment. They currently come able to be plugged in to the mains, but I don’t have mains - so I want to know how I can run them on solar.
specs:
DC Power Supply Requirements: Typ:5.0 Min:4.5 Max: 5.5 Volt (V)
Active Current: ≤200 Milliampere (mA)
Peak Current: ≤600 Milliampere (mA)
What would I need and what is the unit cost?
I want a battery as well as I want them to be able to run cont…
If you have any further questions just ask me here!
