Solar Experiment

Well I have continue with the Solar Wireless Mesh (SWM) experiment and I have come to the conclusion that I need two batteries and four solar panels. The wrap board has been truly a low power unit and has taken little energy. The simple fact is that 30 hours may not be enough to sustain continues operation in the northern or southern operations. The experiment also has to take in account the sun's angel. I currently have moved my solar panel from a 40 degree pitch to a flat scenario. This is to take in account the Sun's Winter angel, spring, summer and fall's variance in the angles. So far parallel to the earth seems to be working.

I have also taken a few photographs of the operations to give you an illustration of the setup.
