automated camera for daily photos of construction site
Hello everyone, looks like we will start on building our dream home this year. I do want to set up a raspberry for automated photo shooting from the construction site. One picture per day is enough, I do want to create a timelapse video afterwards. The new neighbour is a friend, he allowed me to set up the camera in his house facing the construction site. Only problem he does not have a power supply at his window...
Anyone having experience with a solar module and a battery to power the raspi? Feel free to share your jdeas!

@zipping2583 A pi zero 2 W with a large usb battery bank may do the job. Ask the friend to periodically switch them out or attach solar to help keep it charged. The battery needs to be able to charge while providing power though. A trail cam might prove to be the easiest and cheapest option.
