Description
– This solar charger is the “brain” in the new line of OptiMate Solar™ modular charge kits
– Includes a 10W weatherproof solar panel and a smart OptiMate Solar combination charger-monitor controller that charges & maintains a 12V battery during the day and monitors and displays the battery state of charge at night
– The solar panel’s wide spectrum poly-crystalline technology generates power even in low light, that the OptiMate controller converts into high current pulses more effective for charging and maintenance of a 12V battery
– At night the smart controller turns into a battery monitor, providing battery information every 3 seconds on the easy to read 3 LED panel
– Saves flat batteries from as low as 1V with its unique pulse action
– Battery condition is displayed every 3 seconds and draws less than 0.5 mA during monitor mode
– Automatically switches to charge when solar power is sufficient
– The OptiMate charger-monitor controller is separate to the solar panel and can be placed close to the vehicle or battery so that charge and maintenance progress can be easily followed
– The solar panel must be mounted and angled to receive direct sunlight
– Reach/distance between battery and panel is 124″
– Outer dimension, including corner mount brackets: Width = 11-1/2” Height = 12-3/4” Depth = 1“
