Run your Pi from Solar Power.


Want to run your Pi from solar power? That’s an easy task. All you need is a 12v battery, a solar panel, a car power socket, and a car power adapter – and a little sunshine. The solar panel will charge the battery; the power will then be converted to 5v by the car power adapter, which lets you run the Raspberry Pi. Depending on the battery type, you’ll get up to 5 hours from one charge. The instructions for this project are easy and understandable, with wiring kept to a minimum.
