Raspberry pi solar panel battery.
I m setting up an off grid solar solution and the mppt controller i purchased only supports modbus via serial.
Has to have at least 10 000mah battery.
One of the main hazards associated with running a raspberry pi from a battery is the potential to damage the pi if it is abruptly turned off.
Communication with battery controller is made through raspberry pi serial port at 2400 baud.
The power bank choice was essential too it had to fulfil the following criteria.
A solar panel battery charging monitor using a raspberry pi 2 connected to a maximum power point tracker mppt and a raspberry pi 3 showing the output graphs and data.
This is my solar battery monitoring system based on raspberry pi.
If you are using a different version of raspberry pi you can still power it with a 9v solar panel and lm2596 buck converter.
