Up and running


The remote sensor is housed in an electrical box.   The solar panel is attached to keep the battery charged.

Here's what's inside the box:


The Freewave Radio, 12 volt battery, Arduino with a proto shield, battery charger, and ping transducer.

Hope it is water proof enough, we'll find out shortly since its going to rain tonight.
