Use a reclaimed electric car battery to store solar energy for my lab
Solar power using mainly standard and recycled components.
I use a reclaimed electric car battery to store solar energy.
For the moment my main work is developing a stepup converter that can handle several 100W, to charge the battery. It incudes an MPP tracker.

I describe my progress in a blog (in German) on my GitHub Repository.
A Raspi Pico plays an important role in the control of the stepup converter.
