Hello everyone, looks like we will start on building our dream home this year. I do want to set up a raspberry for automated photo shooting from the construction site. One picture per day is enough, I do want to create a timelapse video afterwards. The new neighbour is a friend, he allowed me to set up the camera in his house facing the construction site. Only problem he does not have a power supply at his window…
Anyone having experience with a solar module and a battery to power the raspi? Feel free to share your jdeas!
Given the relatively temporary nature of the use case, in your shoes I’d opt for a rechargeable power bank of some description instead of relying on a small solar set up.
I’ve used a dash camera connected to a power bank for a similar purpose. I’m sure an rpi would sip power in comparison.
