PiJuice - in this video we test the PiJuice battery and solar panels and take a good look at the software. Blog with supplementary information here... raspi.tv/?p=10510 here
Whould it make sense to buy the bigger solar panel with 12 Watts instead of this one? I need the pi to play music on a pair of 1.5V Speakers when visitors are there during the day.
Nice review, been waiting for two years for mine. Looks as good as I thought it would be. I had planned to use it with an A+ in the garden to run my weather station. Not sure that it would have worked watching this. But I do have a Pi3 on 24/7 on my desk for development and this would be a great way to add a UPS to it as at the moment I have to be so carful when plugging stuff in and out that I don't shut it down. Thanks Alex.
Got two pijuices and have same problem. Tried both on the same rpi2. First pijuice worked out of the box, then bricked. I removed all power sources while trying different stacking headers and standoff’s for proper fit in a touch screen case. I then reinstalled the pijuice and now have communication_error. The second pijuice has the same issue out of the box. Suggestions?
