Setup some energy monitoring. Using Arduino and Raspberry Pi. Just Temporary setup for now but it monitors Voltage and Current from Solar panels. Sends that data to http://emoncms.org/thumperup.

Next step is to also include Battery voltage monitoring.

Very cool. How many watts is your setup generating on average? Have you implemented batteries or are you only using it during the day?
