A month long time-lapse - how to control?

[Phunk]

Morning All,

I've been tasked with setting up a daytime time-lapse for a month long construction project about 150 miles away from me.

I'm going to use a Canon 60D DSLR, powered from a 110ah 12v leisure battery topped up with a 100w solar panel.

The issue that I'm having is what to control the time-lapse with. I could use magic lantern but that will run contiunously meaning lots of extra pictures to work through and a larger drain on the battery.

Ideally I need some kind of low power controller that will signal the camera to take a photo every minute from 8am till 8pm. Any ideas? I only have a week till it begins!

Ok, think I've figured out a way!

I'm going to use a inline 12v 24hr timer that'll simply cut the power between the times I choose.

When the camera wakes, magic lantern should restart and the timelapse resume (hopefully!)
