Energy prices are skyrocketing and I don't want to pay this so I combined the The Anker power pack wit my small solar panels to recharge my electric car for free. It's automated now without voiding the warranty to cycle charge it bit by bit.

A first look on the ESP-Eye dev kit from Espressif. Its a tiny board with an on-board camera and a microphone. Its enabled by a phrase and detects faces. It is even able to distinguish different faces. Seems to be an awesome platform for future projects.

This video shows and explains the hardware of a solar powered WiFi weather station. Using MQTT it publishes sensor values to Node-RED which shows it in the browser.

![How to make a Temperature, Pressure, Altitude Logger [Esp8266, WiFi, Arduino]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cwWRHZlu_T0/mqdefault.jpg "How to make a Temperature, Pressure, Altitude Logger [Esp8266, WiFi, Arduino]
This tutorial shows how to make a basic logger using WiFi and Adafruit MQTT. It is based on the cheap WeMos (Esp8266) micro controller with an air pressure/temperature and an OLED shield. It is programmed with an simple Arduino sketch and put in a 3D-printed case. I also explain how the altitude is calculated from airpresure. This logger should be doable for beginners, since not much soldering is needed. Enjoy watching!
