# Can the Bot batteries be charged via solar?

Solar charging the MarkSetBot battery is simple.

A 12V panel(s) and a 12V controller is needed.  The controller must support LiFePo4.  Two popular options are to buy a mobile kit or to buy a permanently mounted kit.

Here are the parts needed to mount on the Bot:
