The solar-powered smart-flowerpot project with the ESP32 micro-controller unit. (Temperature, Humidity, Illuminance (Lux), Soil Moisture, Soil Salinity, Battery Voltage)
This channel will acquire data for solar panels by recording real-time humidity, temperature, and power data by integrating a lab setup in LabVIEW and the ThingSpeak channel.
10 Wp solar panel, two 3400 mAh Li-CoO2 18650 batteries in parallel, permanent small ~50 mW load. A shunt regulator limits battery voltage to 4.1 V. An externally powered ESP32 measures sol and bat powers for ThingSpeak.
