Hi all!
I am new to this forum and to solar panels. I am setting up to do a time lapse shoot off the grid and will have to power my gopro for 96 hrs. Due to the location of the camera, I am hoping to just use my 12v, 10amh atv battery. I conducted a test with a 1.8w solar maintainer and was able to run for 28hrs. I have researched for days and have become quite confused with the formulas. Here is what i know:
Gopro battery. 4.37v, 1180 mah. Have found info stating that it will only use 2.5v in standby.
I have a 12v (lead) 10000mah battery.
25w solar panel.
question:
Will I be Abe to run the gopro off excess panel energy during the day with the panel charging up the battery and run of the battery all night and then charge and run again for 4 consecutive 24 hour days?
Please help. I know this is probably pretty novice stuff but such am I.
