Description

Sunspots (20230610) - beautiful morning

Yesterday (20230609) I completely messed my Sun capturing session because I overlooked some settings in Astroberry's environment while using the little box in hotspot mode, controlled by an Android tablet in harsh sunlight. A good lesson was to setting everything up with minimal effort with a rather light weight power tank as the single power supply.

This is one thing I really love with Astroberry on the Raspberry Pi 4 - that it is so self sufficient, only needing 5V.

Today I avoided yesterday's mistakes and had a fine straight forward full mobile and light weight capturing session. As a side effect, I discovered how to speed up the effective framerate in FireCapture while capturing a ROI of 1600x1600px from 7fps to 20fps.

Conclusion: The little 32-bit Astroberry is actually more capable than I thought for many month. Yesterday's neglect led to a fresh discovery and approach today - a step forward for me!
