At photon brothers we can install a powerwall solution into any existing solar system whether we originally installed it or not.
Photon battery shield with solar panels.
With the tesla powerwall your family can make more use of the solar power saved from your panels by storing the excess easily.
The battery shield by sparkfun has a red led that lights up or indicates when the attached battery is being charged i e the power consumption of the photon is lower than the power input and thus enough power remains to charge the battery.
The sparkfun photon battery shield provides you with an easy way to power your photon module with a lithium polymer battery.
The board comes with a jst connector for your single cell lipo battery and utilizes the photons on.
Backup power when you need it.
The battery shield has everything your photon needs to run off charge and monitor a lipo battery.
You ll also be able to monitor battery levels using the photon itself which makes the power shield the best way to untether your wireless project.
The shield features two unique ic s.
Based around the mcp73871 battery management controller this shield allows you to simultaneously power a photon and charge a connected li ion or li po battery.
An mcp73831 charge controller and a max17043 lipo fuel gauge.
