Hi Tim, I hope you have a very large solar/battery plant if you are wanting to run a Micor off it...
The Micor is by no means solar friendly. Hook one up and measure the standby current, then plug those numbers into a solar power budget calculator, and hang onto your wallet. :) You'd be better off trying to find yourself something like a Daniel's MT-2 type repeater that was designed for such service. They have MUCH less standby current requirements. Cheers!
