5 Watt Mains Free Solar Panel Kit

Product Description

The 5 Watt Mains Free Solar Panel Kit provides eco friendly lighting and a cost effective way to illuminate sheds, garages, outhouses and any other locations without access to mains power.

The solar panel kit is simple to install, and is exempt from Part P of the Building Regulations, which means anyone with basic DIY skills can install the kit without paying for an electrician or costly certificates.

A 75 to 85 Ah car battery is recommended for this kit. A charge controller should be used with lower Ah batteries (minimum of 12Ah), or should be disconnected when not in use to prevent overcharging.

By adding an inverter to the 5 Watt Mains Free Solar Panel Kit, you can use the stored energy to power a variety of small electronic devices.

The solar panel in the kit will generate electricity that will be stored into a connected battery (not supplied), until required. By connecting the switch and light bulb, you can illuminate spaces of up to 16 square metres when you wish.
