The solar panel mount just arrived today so I finally got to hook up the solar panel to my TX0 out at the end of my back yard about 150ft from the receiver.
I still need to figure out what I am going to do with the battery, and I need to raise the solar panel a few more inches. The humidity is especially nasty today so I threw it up quickly just to get it done and get out of the heat. Even with overcast skies the panel seems to be charging the battery just fine, so that's awesome!
As it turned out once in place I didn't need the i2c extender after all, but I'd rather have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
Don't laugh but here it is. Please feel free to add any advice or criticism.
