I have checked the option for serial in Raspberry Pi preferences and it is enabled. I still get the:
WXLink Not Found
I have also switched the two Lora boards and no difference....

Ok, the config.py issue is resolved but.....
I have the Grove Lora 433 tested inside the SolarMax and it is sending out information correctly by plugging it into the Arduino IDE and monitoring the Serial communication at 115k baud. I connected the receiving Grove Lora to my Raspberry Pi 3 B+ using the SDL Grove Hat and plugged into the Serial port of the Hat. When I run the testWXLink.py it says:
WXLink Not Found
I am running Stretch

Config.py is now fixed but...........
Ok, I have connected the Grove Lora, inside the SolarMax Lead Acid box, to Arduino IDE and I see transmission is working. I have plugged up the Grove Lora receive to my Raspberry Pi 3 B+ using the SDL Grove Hat and plugged into the serial connection on the Hat but when I run the "sudo python testWXLink.py" I get:
WXLink Not Found

Ok, we are getting closer. Lead acid kit is configured and sketch loaded to LP Mini Pro after correction stated above. Now the "Python Drivers for SolarMAX" gives an error when running the testWXLink.py in line 1 related to "import config". Help again Please Attachments:

Sorry for what may be a dumb question but I have historically only used the raspberry pi and it similar boards and don't have any real experience with Arduino boards or setup.
Can you give specific instructions or point me to the correct way to load the sketch onto the Grove Mini Pro LP so I can get my SolarMax up and running. I have everything setup and working except the required work on the Mini Pro.
Thanks and great product and help!

I purchased the lead-acid kickstarter and was trying to get setup before it gets here. I have blynk but didn't know where the info was to get the same look you have put on the website.

This in the product page for SunControl:
Even Qi Wireless Charging Works with SunControl
We hooked up a Qi Wireless charger to SunControl and got great results right off the bat. Think of the applications for robots!
APPLICATION NOTES
Using the SunControl WatchDog Timer (coming soon)
Using SunControl in a Raspberry Pi Solar Powered System (coming soon)
Using SunControl in an Arduino Solar Powered System (coming soon)

I have the PiGrover and SunControl boards and not sure how I connect the Watchdog connection. Can you help with that?
Also when will you have the Pi information Application notes?
Thanks and great products

Can somebody post an example of how the local.py would look to read the BMP085 and present Temp or Pressure?
