Description
This solar charger is the "brain" of the new OptiMate Solar™ modular charging kit lineupIncludes a 10W weatherproof solar panel and an OptiMate Solar smart charger-monitor controller that charges and maintains a 12V battery during the day and monitors and displays the battery's state of charge at nightThe solar panel's broad-spectrum polycrystalline technology generates energy even in low light, which the OptiMate controller converts into more efficient high current pulses for charging and maintaining a 12V batteryAt night, the smart controller turns into a battery monitor, providing battery information every 3 seconds on the easy-to-read 3-LED panel.Saves discharged batteries from 1V with its unique pulse actionBattery status is displayed every 3 seconds and consumes less than 0,5 mA in monitor modeAutomatically switches to charging when solar power is sufficientThe OptiMate charger-monitor controller is separate from the solar panel and can be placed near the vehicle or battery so that charging and maintenance progress can be easily trackedThe solar panel must be mounted and angled to receive direct sunlightThe range/distance between the battery and the panel is 124 "Outer dimension including corner mounting brackets : Width = 11-1/2" Height = 12-3/4" Depth = 1"
