Independent power supply

[z8manu8z]

Hello everyone,

Sorry for my broken English, I'm French ;-)

I am very interested in the BirdNet-PI project, and I would like to implement it for an ornithological project.

However, I have one (small) constraint: the device will be installed in the middle of the forest and must therefore have an independent power supply.

Have any of you already done such an installation? What do you recommend ?

Thanks a lot for your help !

I think BirdNET-Pi is wrong tool for your use case, Audiomoth audio recorder would be more suitable https://groupgets.com/products/audiomoth-v1-2-0-group-order-round-23

You just need to run post recording analysis for Audiomoth recordings using BirdNET Analyzer or Chirpity (https://github.com/Mattk70/Chirpity-Electron)

Thanks i will have a look at this project !

power consumption is approx 5W, so you can easily calculate... With a 12v 100Ah battery, you could theoretically get to 10 days (you need 12vdc to 5vdc converter).
Alternatively you have a solar panel which you could put outside the forest (and battery closer to the Pi). Have discribed this setup on my wiki.

Good luck!

Thanks a lot i'll look at this solution ;-)

Hi, We set up a station with the configuration that I attached and it has been working all winter without problems. The design allows data to be consulted remotely, only when there is sun and the Pb battery has a minimum charge, and the records are made day and night, as long as the second lithium battery system has a charge. The Pijuice hat manages energy flows, and turns the RBPY on/off in an orderly manner. I hope it is useful to you Greetings, El jue, 29 feb 2024 9:54, z8manu8z ***@***.***> escribió:
