SolarBit DIY Kit (PCB + LDR Sensors)

Build Your Own SolarBit-Style Tracker

This kit gives you the brains and sensors of a SolarBit tracker without the bulky parts. It’s ideal if you’re already comfortable 3D printing and want to source motors, panels and hardware on your own.

Pair this pack with your own printed frame and stepper motors and you’ve got the core electronics to build a compact, sun-tracking miner or node power system.

What’s Included (CryptoMachine SolarBit DIY Kit)

This kit provides the core electronics from the official SolarBit BOM (items #2, #3 and #15):

• ✅ SolarBit main control PCB – pre-assembled, with 5 V and 12 V output rails

• ✅ LDR / light-sensor PCB + cable – for solar tracking and panel alignment

• ✅ 6p – 6p Molex(MX1.25) LDR cable

Everything here ships as a DIY parts kit, not a finished, enclosed product.

For the full reference bill of materials, see the official SolarBit BOM on GitHub:

Note: Exact PCB revision will match the batch shown in the product photos.

What You Still Need to Source:

 

Use the GitHub BOM as your master shopping list; this kit simply covers the harder-to-source electronics boards and wiring so you can focus on the mechanical build and power side.

Who This Kit Is For

• Makers who want just the electronics for a SolarBit-style build

• People already comfortable with 3D printing and basic wiring

• Bitaxe / NerdQaxe owners who want to experiment with solar-powered rigs

• Anyone building a compact, solar-tracking platform for small 5V/12V loads

Compatibility & Safety Notes

 

• The main PCB exposes both 5 V and 12 V outputs – always match your load to the correct voltage rail.

• Do not run panels directly into the board or battery: always use a proper MPPT or PWM charge controller sized for your array.

• You are responsible for safe wiring, fusing, grounding, and outdoor weather-proofing.

• This is a DIY electronics kit, so expect basic soldering and wiring to complete the build.
