https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/about is a web site that's solar
powered. There are links describing the process, the downsides and
advantages, and their method of trying different sized batteries and
panels.

I have a shed that's far enough away from the house that I need to
trench to it to get power. It's never really *needed* power, but we've
been thinking about it. I'm tempted to get a battery/panel combination
to run a small fan and table lamp, and leave a running Pi in there with
a wifi connection and a web site.
