Description

Made for long summer days on the lake, this fast charging 12V solar panel is built for adventure. In full sun it will charge a Powerbox 10 in 3-4 hours, or a 7Ah battery in just 2.5 hours! Rated at 50 watts this panel provides 150% more juice then our standard solar panel, while also being waterproof, shatterproof, and half the weight. Alligator clips provide universal compatibility. This panel will charge any 12V Dakota Lithium battery. Can be used while power is being drawn from the battery (in effect you can power some electronics indefinitely). Use multiple panels for a faster charging time or for charging bigger capacity batteries.

Technical Specifications

  • Power: 50 Watts, Maximum Power Current is 2.8 Amps

This is my very first foray into anything solar. In my application, which is portable ham radio, I need a way to keep my batteries topped when away from the grid. After reading the info on the website and asking way too many questions (all of which were promptly responded to) I decided to try the 50W folding solar panel. When the box arrived I was dismayed at its size. I guess Dakota have heard about the perils of common carriers- the package was almost three times as large as the panel which contributed to its safe arrival. What is amazing is that the panel captures energy, in late afternoon, in early January, inside my family room, through the twin seal glass unit with louvers between the glass panels. Astounding. I think this will work. Fred VE7FMN

I love the compact design and simplicity of it. I charged a 12 volt 7 amp battery in a couple hours just as it says. It was a cloudy day too. I bought the solar panel for a yearly fishing trip that is totally off grid. I have a 7 amp battery for my fishfinder and a 10 amp battery in a self made power pack that has lights and chargers. The batteries work great and are sooo light. I have recommended them to all of my friends.
