Diy solar panel tracking mount.
Attach the brackets to the pipes and secure them with gear clamps.
Each 2 x 4 board is as long as the solar panel is wide and was attached to each end of the 2 x 6 with screws and bolts.
Check out my latest project.
Solar panel the first step of this project is to build the base and attach the wheels then build a sturdy frame for attaching the panel.
Mount the pa 14 mini linear actuator and secure using the brk 14 actuator mounting pins.
I attached small pieces of angle iron to the holes on the end of each panel and then screwed them to the wooden frame.
This is a substantial gain but we simply couldn t afford a self tracking mount which would have been more than 1 000 for one large enough to house all our panels.
This allows a nice flat place on which to mount the panel.
We hope you enjoyed our article and video on creating a portable solar tracker.
After the frame is built and the panel is attached the linear actuator and sensor need to be installed for the unit to properly track the movement of the sun.
