This kit turns that raw motion into precise efficiency metrics—measuring AC output, rectifying it to DC, and logging every watt-hour to an SD card. It’s built for the serious energy research project, where you need proof of conversion efficiency under controlled conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou will assemble a fully enclosed monitoring system for a wave energy converter. The ZMPT101B captures raw AC voltage, the diode bridge rectifies it, and the INA219 sensors track both the incoming AC power (post-rectification) and the final DC output. An A3144 Hall sensor counts generator strokes, while the DS3231 RTC timestamps every data point saved to the microSD card.
