FAQ’s:
WHAT CAN IT POWER AND FOR HOW LONG?…
In most of our off-grid cabin or tent set-ups we’ll be running some LED lighting along with some USB charging sockets, a 12v fridge and small 240V inverter to plug in things like laptops. Mainly low wattage items so no hair driers or electric heaters!
Our 100W panel & 115Ah battery combination will usually give a set-up like this uninterrupted power throughout most of the season (UK winters may need additional charge time).
WHAT IF THERE’S NOT MUCH SUN AND THE BATTERY NEEDS CHARGING?…
The great thing about our solar station is that its very mobile! As such when power demands become too high and the suns not playing ball then it can be easily moved back to the workshop, house or nearest mains electric point, plugged in and charged back up ready for your next guests. Mains charging usually takes about 24 hours to get things back to full charge.
HOW FAR FROM OUR CABIN OR TENT CAN THE STATION BE?…
Long cables mean loss of power so it cant be too far away otherwise the cable size needed gets expensive. We offer a few different lengths of connection cable but the maximum that you can really economically go to is 20m
CAN I GET SPARES FOR IT?…
We’ve selected some of the best materials and parts for our solar station so hope it will give you years of reliable power for your site however batteries, charges controllers, solar panels, wheels and even frame panels can be bought separately if broken or damaged beyond repair.
