{"product_id":"120w-12v-solar-charging-kit-with-10a-controller-and-5m-cable","title":"120W 12V solar charging kit with 10A controller and 5m cable","description":"\u003cp\u003eIntroducing the 120W 12V solar charging kit featuring a 10A controller and 5m cable. This high-efficiency, waterproof 120W 12V monocrystalline solar panel is designed for permanent outdoor use. It provides free electricity for charging 12V batteries to power various applications including camper vans, motorhomes, boats, sheds, farms, as well as remote applications like telecommunications or monitoring equipment. Additionally, it can be used to directly power applications not sensitive to changes in input voltage\/current, such as electric motors or pumps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTThe solar panel comes with 5 meters of special solar cable that can handle high roof temperatures with minimal power losses. It is equipped with a pair of male\/female MC4 connectors crimped on the end of the cable for easy connection to other solar panels, extension leads, or an existing system. Additionally, the panel features long-lasting, high-efficiency monocrystalline solar cells and a durable, sealed aluminum frame designed to provide consistent, free power for many years. The waterproof design allows for use in all weather conditions. Notably, the panel includes innovative 5 busbar solar cells, which are more efficient than the typical 2, 3, or 4 busbar solar cells found in most other panels. This allows for greater power extraction from the same surface area, resulting in a smaller overall panel, making it ideal for limited space applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese solar cells are also the best choice for applications in warmer climates, as they operate well even in high ambient temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10A solar charge controller: The kit includes a 10A 12V\/24V Photonic Universe solar charge controller designed to protect batteries while charging them. It has automatic cut off to prevent over-charging and deep discharge. The controller uses PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) technology which increases charge acceptance and prolongs the life of your battery. Often PWM technology can recover some lost battery capacity. This controller stops reverse current at night (from the battery back to the solar panel) so your battery won't lose any charge. It has many other protection functions such as over charge\/discharge, over load, short circuit, overheating, etc. Other features of this controller include LED indicators, temperature sensor, and a load \"on\/off\" button. One of the greatest benefits of this powerful 10A controller is the small size - only 14x7cm. This controller can work with sealed, gel and flooded batteries (the default is sealed) or a user-defined battery type (please note battery type can only be changed from default using one of the communication methods listed below). The controller can accept up to 160W (12V battery) \/ 320W (24V battery) of solar power input, which makes it a perfect choice for small or medium solar PV systems with a battery and load, such as in a campervan or boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe solar charge controller also features advanced communication technology, which offers the user the opportunity to monitor and program parameters for the solar charge controller through various methods:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) The controller can be connected to a remote meter MT50 with an LCD screen, which displays system performance information and allows the user to manually adjust parameters and load settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2) The controller can be connected to a Wi-Fi module to create a Wi-Fi network, to which your mobile phone or tablet can connect, in order to monitor or adjust charging parameters and controller settings through a free mobile app - Solar Station Monitor (available for Android and iOS users).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3) An RJ45 to USB cable can be used to connect the controller directly to your PC\/laptop, where parameters and settings can be monitored and adjusted via a free computer program - Solar Station Monitor (Windows-based PCs and laptops only).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing one of these communication methods, the user will gain access to various charging parameters such as voltage, current (separately for solar panel\/load), battery state of charge, accumulated charge and discharge energy, min\/max voltage and other information. If required, the user will also be able to amend the battery type and capacity, set charging volts for different charging stages, specify the duration of each charging stage, create a user-defined battery type with charging parameters specific to their battery (if the pre-existing options are unsuitable), personalize the 'load' settings (e.g. set timers for lighting, fans, pumps), and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the built-in temperature sensor, the controller has a pair of terminals for connecting a remote temperature sensor, which can be attached directly to the battery to measure the battery temperature more precisely and optimize the charging process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: This is an essentials kit and does not include mounting accessories or battery cable.
