Hi friends and comrades! What are you working on these days? I’m really interested in praxis and in new ideas of what to do in real life to advance towards a solarpunk future.

Hope you’re all well!

    I’m learning everything I can about how modern batteries work like lipos and lion and figuring out how to safely reuse my friend’s vape batteries in my kid’s toys. I’m having trouble being motivated to publish about it but I know that the info would be useful. Next up is wiring up this extra solar panel from a past project into a 6s custom charger (without starting a fire hopefully) for some off grid challenges.

      If you can, instead of publishing, just keep a weekly or monthly “dear future self” log somewhere online. Once the basics are up, people can ask about the missing details, and it’s a lot easier to reply and fill in the gaps than it is to sit down an write up a comprehensive summary.
