LiFePo4 Powerstation – mobile storage for stand-alone PV systems
Powerstation for the garden house: the animal house in the garden with its large aviary requires electricity for the lighting and diesel heating. In order to reduce the electricity costs in the long term, I have built a PV island system which stores the electricity from the photovoltaic modules in special solar batteries. These batteries are now to be replaced by a mobile LiFePo4 battery.

800W balcony power plant easy to install & optimize by yourself
To cover the base load I have installed a small 300W balcony power plant for quite some time. I was able to gain some experience and optimize my own use of solar power. Now I am replacing my 300W balcony power plant with a new 800W balcony power plant. In addition to the new PV modules, I renew the substructure, the microinverter and, of course, the connection to the house grid. During my rebuild, a few questions came up, which I would like to answer with this entry and my video: 👉 What components does a balcony power plant consist of? 👉 How to fix a balcony power station?…

Install Reolink RLN36 NVR | Install hard disk and set up camera
To monitor my property, I had set up a camera surveillance system. Nine Hikvison and Trendnet cameras monitored every nook and cranny on the site. The data was stored on a QNAP NAS. The system ran cleanly and stably – but also at the capacity limit. The amount of data from the cameras was simply too large and I had to think about how to future-proof my surveillance system. I therefore decided to set up a Reolink camera system and store the data on an NVR, a network video recorder. In this post I show you how I went about it.
