Solar Tracking - Logging Project

Featured Replies

Hi. I am working on a small project ( Solar Tracker 😏) but will be for educational purposes.

The hardware is fairly simple and depending on how log I will run the project I might even just print it but now I am looking at a cheap way of logging the data. My first thought was to get some current and volt sensors but then I also need to regulate the power from the small panel as will need to driver the Arduino Board during daytime and the cost is now running away. On the bigger systems data is provided as a given so I am looking to a pwm / mppt that will also show / send data. I need it as small as possible (for cost reasons) as I will adapt the panel accordingly.
Any thoughts or products?
