Here the idea is to do a write-up of the process. Off-grid scenario limitations One detail about the project and the design and architecture decisions: they were all based on my biggest limitation — I don’t have internet available 24h. A limitation derived from not having a constant energy generation, and that’s exactly what this project seeks to quantify and make visible.https://marcosvpj.com.br/en/posts/how-many-tv-episodes-still-fit-in-the-battery/Mon, 17 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://marcosvpj.com.br/en/posts/how-many-tv-episodes-still-fit-in-the-battery/Living off-grid and working remote, managing my electricity consumption is a constant need. In the summer, when the sun powers the solar panels from 6-7 in the morning, I don’t have many problems. But in the winter, depending on the weather, the sun only shows up to recharge the batteries around 9-10 in the morning. That makes the decision of watching one more episode of a series before sleeping be the difference between having or not having electricity to work on the next cloudy days.
