Here's a solar & Arduino project that may be of interest to the group. Lady Ada calls it a "Portable solar charging tracker". The functions are:
Portable! Its hard to test solar panels inside
Ability to log to an SD card for long-term data analysis (to be added later)
Keep track of the solar panel voltage
Keep track of the battery voltage
Keep track of how much current is going thru the panel to the charger
Note, this project is not a solar-powered datalogger.
Take a look:
