OptiMATE solar kit, panels with intelligent charge/monitoring controller. The highly effective solar charger (solar impulse charging system), with which even deeply discharged batteries can still be saved and protected. It guarantees safe and intelligent charging, as the OptiMATE solar battery charging system independently switches between continuous charging or pulse charging depending on the sunshine. OptiMATE analyses the state of the battery the next day and optionally continues charging or - in the case of a defective battery - optimisation. Safe long-term maintenance without the risk of overcharging. Automatic shutdown in the event of a short circuit or as soon as the battery is disconnected. Excellent safety for battery and vehicle electronics Easy monitoring of the battery status with the help of the monitor display, which updates itself every 3 seconds. (current consumption < 0.5 mA). With this battery charging system you get an all-round package, mobile, portable, intelligent. The system is suitable for standard, AGM, LFP and gel batteries. It is supplied with battery terminals and ring eye connections and with German instructions. The solar systems are manufactured to a high standard in South Africa (made in South Africa).

Additionally included in delivery are: suitable carrying bag adjustable stand (fixed to the panel) The panel is ideally suited for our parking heater, for example. Please note: When using the panel for a cool box, a buffer is necessary, as the starting current is too high.  Made in South Africa  

Battery box with various connections, with solar panel Optionally with AGM or LiFePo battery In the 21st Century modern technology is everywhere, even off-road and off the grid, but more often than not there is no power when you're out and about on some trail in some country. One option is the classic cigarret-lighter as a power source, but in using this frequently you risk decharging your battery to a point where it won't start your car anymore. Another option would be a generator, but those are loud, impractical and noisy. To solve this probem highly portable powerbanks were invented, but for a multiple day long trip a small powerbank just won't cut it. So, what if you had a lagre but portable power bank? One you could simply charge, even off the grid, maybe with a solar panel? And one that is heavy dut enough to endure week long trips and years of use ?  Hold on, that's exactly what we did! This compact, but long-lasting Powerstation (33Ah) offers a cigaret lighter-output and two USB-ports (5V - 2.1A), in a roubust shell. It can simply be charged using our solar panels by Optimate. LiFePo4 batteries – with their lithium iron phosphate cathode material – are perfect for running your camping or work utilities on the road, especially in conjunction with our mobile battery boxes. Unlike your conventional AGM lead-acid technology, the lithium battery combines vastly superior charging/discharging qualities with extremely low weight and small volume, respectively, and a long service life. LiFePo4 batteries tolerate deep discharging without problems, unlike AGM batteries which will suffer irreparable damage when repeatedly discharged beyond 50%. Unless you require the greater tolerance for extreme cold in AGM’s, you should definitely consider the higher initial costs of LiFePo4 batteries and compatible chargers. Enormous weight and space reductions, the long life-cycle and the hassle-free charging and discharging of the battery are strong arguments for the investment. And last but not least: LiFePo4-technology is extremely safe. robust shell portable design comfortable handle 20 A car-fuse 33 Ah (396Wh) AGM brand battery optionally 35 Ah LiFePo battery 2x USB-plug (out) 1x cigaret-lighter (out) 1x SAE junction box for charger (charger not included) (in) 1x On-/Off-switch  simply plug in and off you go Scope of delivery: 1 x Optimate solar panels in a choice of 40, 60 and 80 watts, including bag and stand.1 x Optimate charge/monitor controller, including weatherproof battery cable1 x Nakatanenga battery box selectable in 4 colours, with different connections Please note the legal information on batteries HERE.
