A decent search on the Forum (top right of every thread page!) will yield lots of fruit…e.g. this recent discusssion
Hello folks,
Currently planning to build a solar powered gateway setup. Plan is to use a Mikrotik LR8, a 100Ah Lipo, a SIM based 4g router and 100W solar panel. One part of this relies on knowing the state of the LIPO battery and if possible being able to read the voltage and transmit it evey hour over Lorawan. Before I go and build this, does any one have any experience building the above (or plans they might share…) and does anyone know of a reliable off the shelf lora device to do voltage mo…
which also refers back to one of my earlier posts for a Solar build a few years back - there are lots more if you look. final choice/config will depend on which GW and Cellular connection solution you choose…

Wanted an easy way to monitor the battery voltage. Problem was I didnt have a lot of free time to build a low cost node lash up and I also decided it would be useful to report the solar panel output voltage. Then I remembered I has a Dragino LT-33222 from our friend @edwin and the team. Perfect - supports 2 analogue input voltages for monitoring (0-30V) as well as running off a supply upto 24V, …
