Photonic Universe 100W 12V solar charging kit with 10A controller and 5m cable

Product Description

This kit includes:


100W monocrystalline solar panel with 5m of solar cable and MC4 connectors
Advanced 10A Photonic Universe solar charge controller




100W solar panel:

The waterproofhigh efficiency Photonic Universe 100W monocrystalline solar panel included in this kit is perfect for permanent outdoor use to provide free electricity to charge a 12V batteryto power hundreds of devices and electrical appliances.

The long-lasting monocrystalline solar cells and the tough, sealed, aluminium frame will provide years and years of consistent, free power. The waterproof design ensures thatthe panel can be used in all weather conditions.

The panel comes with 5m of special solar cable which can operate at high roof temperatures, with minimum power losses. A pair of male / female MC4 connectors are crimped on the end of the cable for easy connection to to other solar panels or 4mm extension cable. The MC4 connectors can also be cut off when wiring to the screw terminals ofthe 10Asolar charge controller.

Each individual solar panel is thoroughly tested to the highest quality standards, and labelled with a unique serial number for further quality control and increased warranty protection.

10A solar charge controller:

The kit includes a 10A Photonic Universe solar charge controller designed to protect batteries whilst charging them, having 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 solar 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 aload "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 solar charge controller also features advanced communication technology, whichoffers the user the opportunityto monitor and program parameters for the controller through various methods:

1) 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

2) 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 adjustchargingparameters and controller settingsthrough a free mobile app - Solar StationMonitor(available for Android and iOS users).

3) An RJ45 to USB cablecan 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).

Using 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, accumulatedcharge anddischarge energy,min/max voltage and other information.If required the user will also be abletoamend 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 totheir battery (if the pre-existing options are unsuitable), personalise the 'load' settings (e.g. set timers for lighting, fans, pumps) and more.

In 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 optimise the charging process.

The controller is not waterproof and should be used indoors.

Please note: This is an essentials kit and does not include mounting accessories or battery cable. If you require these additional items, please purchase them separately.
