Customer Reviews

Solar Charger
I've had the Solar Charger for awhile now. For its size, it does very well. I'm a little concerned about how fragile it is. The output even in indirect sunlight is approx. 18volts. I used it with Sunforce's 7 amp regulator. Their regulator died after 2 weeks. I sent it back to them and haven't heard back. They where good about the RMA, but again. I have not heard what happened yet. The bottom line is if you want a small unit for a boat, vehicle and you have a day or two to charge the battery. This unit will do. I wish I could say the same for their regulator.

15 Solor Charger
Installed on tractor barn to maintain tractor battery during winter months. It has performed well, since installing the battery is always charged. Produces current even on low sunlight days.

Solar Panel
These solar panels work well. Just be aware that with a fixed location you will only get a portion of the rated amps. If you have direct sunlight and no clouds you may get full current. They are durable and easy to set up.
