This solar tracker DIY project allows your solar system to follow the sun’s movement across the sky. Traditional static solar systems are fixed in place and can miss out on gathering much of the sun’s energy once it moves out of direct sight. With this simple design, a 12 volt linear actuator moves this system which has bicycle wheels as its main component. A solar tracker of this nature can increase energy output by as much as 30% to 50%. The beauty of this design is that it does not require expensive argon gas, but rather it can be built using readily available parts and materials.
