Also known as a hat this board will connect directly to your raspberry pi s 40 pin gpio header.
Raspberry pi solar panel controller.
Some boards such as the one i m using will also power the pi directly from the solar panel when the battery is full.
Recommended power management hat.
Combining a raspberry pi with an arduino can add many benefits to your project such as safety and extended battery life during bad weather though it is certainly not necessary.
These boards are designed with a lot of flexibility for you to innovate your design.
In this video i just quickly.
This board will convert the energy from the solar panel into stored battery power.
With the appropriate software built into the raspberry pi to protect itself and some medium large solar panels your raspberry pi project can live on indefinitely.
Internally it is not a simple system but it is designed to be simple to use.
