My totally crazy, half baked idea for reducing battery requirements in Off Grid solar. Sorry for the awful background and my bad hair day. Focus on science, Morty.

This might be a good place to start looking at 12V solar panels:

I'd love to provide a charge controller recommendation, but I think the topic of which MPPT charge controller you use is dependent on which miner you run and how many amps it will draw, which is a little beyond the scope of this video.
