Really it’s an amazing project and the linked resources are great at explaining what Open Source Ecology is. Thank you for introducing it.
What, specifically, is this community for? What are the parameters of the conversations you want to encourage? I suppose I’m looking for some idea of community mission statement. Is that something we can have a conversation about?

This one is pretty close to the project I’m working on. I just got my parts in the mail yesterday and won’t have a lot of time to put it into practice till the weekend. I’ll post something here when I get a more finished version. Right now it works, but it runs ragged, so I’m adding a comparator IC and a transistor to provide a clean voltage cutoff.
Always happy to talk electronics! The super capacitors are a great thing to know about because there are a lot of applications that don’t need to run 24/7. My 750ml aquarium will do just fine being only aerated during daylight hours, for instance. A vent for a shed could operate the same way too.
