From the project

Proyecto final de grado

Trabajo Fin de Grado — Grado en Ingeniería Electrónica de Comunicaciones ETSIST · Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM)

Cualquiera que haya hecho astrofotografía o astronomía visual en campo abierto sabe que la energía es un problema. Las monturas motorizadas, las cámaras y los accesorios necesitan alimentación estable durante horas, normalmente lejos de cualquier enchufe. La solución clásica es cargar con una batería de plomo-ácido, que pesa, ocupa y no te dice cuánta carga le queda realmente.
