DIY Solar Power Meter

DIY Solar Power Meter is a low cost ESP32 based handheld device to measure Solar Irradiance, Tilt, and Azimuth By Open Green Energy.

Simple Arduino Solar Radiation Meter for Solar Panels

- The first row shows the amount of current generated by the panel, and the current power delivered by a panel with an area of 1 square meter. - The second row shows us how many

DIY Solar Power Meter for Display of Real Time Amps and Volts

In this video, I take a cheap battery monitor w/shunt I had kicking around and repurposed it to show amps and volts coming off a 600-watt solar panel array. I wired it up to be able to be easily

Low-Cost DIY Solar Irradiance Sensor

I wanted to design a lower cost unit which can be easily interfaced with a microcontroller. I wanted to measure in-plane solar irradiance, so that I could compare the output from solar panels

Make an Arduino Solar Tracker | Science Project

In this project, you will design and build your own solar tracker system. The tracker will use two light sensors, called photoresistors, to track the sun. When both sensors are pointed directly at the sun,

Available UnitsDiy DesignsSensors AvailableSensor ChoiceTemperature MeasurementDiffuserValidation and CalibrationPCB DesignInformation RepositoryI designed a PCB layout for this sensor using KiCAD (an open source PCB design package). I started off trying to make a full unit with display and buttons etc. I then decided to strip this back and just make a sensor unit that can communicate via a serial communication. I initially decided to use the ATTiny85 IC, as this is one I am familiar with a...See more on re-innovation .ukScience Buddies
