The Sunforce 52013 1.8 Watt Solar Battery Maintainer Twin Pack is comprised of two solar battery maintainers that are ideal for the batteries of cars, SUVs, boats, tractors and more. The units are completely maintenance-free and easy to install. Just plug this solar charger into your vehicle's 12-Volt lighter socket and position the panel to pick up the most daylight possible. Or, if you prefer, use the included alligator clips to connect it directly to the battery, so you can keep your lighter socket open for cell phone chargers or other accessories.
Regardless of how you hook up the battery maintainer, you will always be able to start your vehicle. Constructed with a built-in blocking diode to prevent reverse discharge, the amorphous solar panels charge in all daylight conditions, even on cloudy days. The complete kit for each unit includes 7.5 feet of wire, 12V DC plug, suction cups for easy mounting, and battery clamps. With a maximum temperature range from -40 to 176 degrees Fahrenheit, each solar panel provides 1.8 Watts or 125 mA of power to prevent the natural voltage drain of batteries over time.
Convenient charging on the go
Convenient Power That Helps Keep Your Batteries Charged
This Sunforce solar charger lets you harness the power of the sun, the most powerful and plentiful source of energy available to us. Unlike nuclear and fossil fuels, solar power is clean and pollution-free, and the equipment requires very little maintenance to operate.
Sunforce Solar Panels are effective in areas of both high and lower sun exposure, making them ideal for use in the United States
About Amorphous Solar Power
Solar panels convert sunlight into an electric current, they do not store power. Amorphous solar panels are created by spraying silicon onto glass in very thin layers, and are commonly known as thin film solar panels. This process allows them to be better at generating electricity in all lighting conditions, including cloudy or shady environments. They have a maximum operating temperature range of -40 to 176-degrees Fahrenheit, requiring virtually no maintenance. They can even withstand impacts from one-inch hailstones at 50 miles-per-hour.
Amorphous solar cells work in all daylight conditions--even on cloudy days. Please note that this amorphous solar panel needs to be inside the dash of a vehicle or by a window indoors as it is not waterproof.
Amorphous Silicon key points:
- Lightweight, portable, and shade tolerant
- For entry to solar or hands on solar
- Best for smaller output needs, temporary set ups, and areas that do not receive predictable sun conditions
