Congratulations on making a SunSaluter!

The estimated setup time is 1-2 hours. Our manual design is open source and available for you to use with local materials. We would love if you check in with us so we can track our impact and improve our design. 

By voluntarily building your own SunSaluter based on the content available here, you agree to take full responsibility for the assembly, maintenance and usage of the system and its parts. You are proceeding at your own risk and you release SunSaluter from any liability.

Step 1: Tools

It will be easiest to assemble your SunSaluter if you have these tools. 

Step 2: Materials

These materials can be picked up from most local hardware stores, or sometimes just lying around at a friends' place! The total cost for your system shouldn't be more than $50 USD, but can often be much less.

We encourage you to reuse and recycle old materials as much as possible! Any of the materials listed here can be substituted for a locally-available resource.

SunSaluter also has some limited edition kits which include many of the components if you don’t want to source your own supplies! You can order a kit here.

Separately from the materials listed here, you will need the solar panel system that you are installing with the SunSaluter, which may consist of supplies such as a solar panel, charge controller, inverter, battery, etc.
