Rpi O w mobilized: 15ah battery and 250ma solar panel

Its aliiiiiive!

Thats a raspberry pi zero - W epoxied to a 15 amp hour battery (allpowers brand), on the back you cant see is a 250mill-amp solar panel. The pi takes about 100 mill-amps.  So ill get 100± hrs before depletion and the solar panel can run the pi and charge the battery simultaneously, assuming direct sun.

I was going to build one onto the back of my tablet case but it was too heavy.

I connect from any android device via wifi or bluetooth (using vnc over ssh with bVNC app). But i wont drop it cause its not glued to a phone.

Power button + usb port.

Battery can be charged at wall and also has an open 2.4 amp usb power socket.

Cost
25$ battery
25$ rpi 0 W
10$ cables

Never have to plug in again: priceless.
