I wanted to see how the hardware and code worked connected to something other than the bench supply I had been testing on.  I put the arduino, network and proto shield into a cheap plastic case. $1.99 for 10 small "project" cases from the local grocery store.

I connected the arduino between the solar panels and the charger controller to get a reading from the panels.
