Hi PLUGgers,<br>
<br>
I am looking at setting up a monitoring system using a phone (probably android).<br>
<br>
The phone would be taking ~10 photos every minute and sending them<br>
over a 3G connection (preferably more if battery could handle it,<br>
possibly some video). It would only be operating during daylight<br>
hours. It would also not have access to mains power.<br>
<br>
The best solution for power I've been able to find so far for powering<br>
the phone would be using a solar battery maintainer to keep a 12 V<br>
battery charged and hooking up the phone via a car charger.<br>
<br>
Issues with this solution are; I wouldn't be keeping track of battery<br>
levels, and it possibly wouldn't provide enough power.<br>
<br>
Does anybody have any suggestions for powering the device, given that<br>
it doesn't need to be solar as long as battery replacement was<br>
fortnightly, or know of any projects that have documented doing stuff<br>
like this.<br>
<br>
Kind Regards<br>
Luke John<br>
<br>
