It has everything a pi needs for remote deployments including a solar panel interface battery backup and charging analog to digital inputs a pwm fan controller and a real time clock for accurate time keeping and wake up from sleep.
Raspberry pi solar panel module.
During peak output from the solar panel sunny day the battery is recharged.
Kaspars picked up a lightweight 18 v 5 a solar panel that was marketed as being perfect for charging boats and cars.
Here s some great info on serial communication with the raspberry pi.

The gsm module communicates with the raspberry pi via serial using uart.
Overview the raspberry pi solar power module is a compact power controller for the raspberry pi.
Combining a raspberry pi with an arduino can add many benefits to your project such as safety and extended battery life during bad weather though it is certainly not necessary.
Matching the raspberry pi zero dimensions the 65x30 5mm board is also capable of providing key information in terms of current voltage power and overall power efficiency while running itself at an overall efficiency of up to 90.
Pisolman is a highly integrated electronic module designed to continuously power the raspberry pi zero from a 12 v battery and a solar panel.
If you are using a different version of raspberry pi you can still power it with a 9v solar panel and lm2596 buck converter.
It is also capable of providing key information in terms of current voltage power and overall power efficiency.
Also known as a hat this board will connect directly to your raspberry pi s 40 pin gpio header.
Recommended power management hat.
However make sure that the output voltage is 4 75v to 5 25v as shown in the led display.
This board will convert the energy from the solar panel into stored battery power.
With the appropriate software built into the raspberry pi to protect itself and some medium large solar panels your raspberry pi project can live on indefinitely.
When the solar panel s output power is low clouds night time the system automatically switches to battery power.
Only 1 left in stock order soon.
Some boards such as the one i m using will also power the pi directly from the solar panel when the battery is full.
Boot up your raspberry pi with a a standard raspbian image.
