Wooohoooo super sunny here, since I reconfigured the solar panels to a 24v system it's been so much more efficient so I suspect we are now out of the winter power saving and will be online continuously now until October. Perhaps I need to run some more services to soak up all those rays....

MelyannaHello World!
I have joined a few days ago but have not had time to write an #introduction post.
I live in Italy, I work in video games, and in my spare time I play tabletop games with my friends (we are well into our forties, but have been playing together ever since we were teenagers), fiddle with bash scripting, and read (currently reading "The brothers Karamazov".
I am interested in off grid living, though at the moment I am in a rented flat so have few options to go solar.

The_SunPhotovoltaics for cargo ships
Wattlab has installed a PV system capable of delivering up to 35 kW to a cargo ship’s high-voltage propulsion system, allowing it to temporarily replace one of four diesel generators under optimal conditions.
Automated energy management uses solar and batteries toimproves efficiency and cuts fuel consumption.

Okay - here is the #OnlineSafetyAct Risk Assessment - https://blog.solarcene.community/riskassessment.html

Lets see how it goes...

smallsolar@Serenity I’ve got a second box which I plan to setup next week. I’ve used cottonwool as a starter medium and then some clay balls. I had an interesting trip to a hydroponics shop.
@Serenity #hydroponics online! I’ll post pictures of the setup in a bit but for the first round it’s 5 #bokchoi plants and I’m using the #Kratky method. The 2 led light strips I’m using add an additional 12W of power (I’m unsure if I’ll need more lights). The lights are controlled by my #nanopi board running #dietpi
It’s nice to see some sunshine today. The challenge I’ve got is when it’s cloudy I really need the 4 #solarPanels I have, but when it’s sunny I don’t.
It’s time to start thinking about how I can utilise this extra power.
I probably should invest in a better battery but also perhaps an inverter so I could run an occasional household appliance off the solar.
It’s tricky on a small scale.
