Hi,
as soon as the Quartz64 Model B 8GB will be available I will finally enter the SBC world.
One of the medium/long term project would be to have it solar powered with a battery.
The aim is to learn more about electronics (I know that is quite silly for only 5-10 W).
Ideally I would like to be able:
- power it via solar + battery 24/7
- be able to monitor the power consumption and generation
I have noticed that for the Raspberry Pi there is already a solution https://uk.pi-supply.com/products/pijuice-solar.
I am not looking for an end-to-end solution, more for a guide, what to buy, some sort of explanation.
Do you have a suggestion on where to start from, especially for Pine64 products?
Thanks
