Mike. I recently purchased 2 of your 1025 panels with the chew resistant cables and they seem like they will be a great addition for my cameras. I Hope they last for a long time. I will be a returning customer soon to purchase a few more of them. Thanks !
Hooked up a Moultrie 180i Panoramic Trail Camera (battery eater king) to the SPP1025 -- and the battery level still reads 98% constant going for three months now and the product out in torrent rains swinging on a coconut tree. Holding solid. Insane power. No more feeding the camera. This solar package is the real thing.
Thanks for the review. Curious, are these hailstone impact resistant? One of my solar chargers took a shot from a hailstone and cracked the screen. Similar look a rock that hits a windshield.
@@herd360 I currently have spypoint SPLB-22 solar panel with lithium batteries LIT-22. Which port inlet on the solar panel, would give me better results to keep my lithium battery charge 6V, 9V, or 12V port?
There is one cable of each plug size to work with a wide variety of cameras. If you selected one with a chewproof cable then that is an extra add on. So if you selected one with a 4.0 chewproof cable you would have two to fit the xb. You would connect one camera to the 9v port and one to the 12v port. You are going to need full sun coverage
Probably not. Unless a security camera is designed to run off of a battery or solar, it probably won't have energy saving sleep mode like trailcams do. You would need a much larger panel.
@@herd360 Thank you. The manufacturer for the cam +wifi system sent specs that say max current is 135ma on 12V and max wattage 3W so if I use the highest figure I would need 72Wh per day to power it. I love your design, it's compact and I was thinking the battery could handle a few days of use before needing a charge but perhaps you are right. I'm in Maine. Perhaps you have additional thoughts.
@@herd360 They are a small birdwatcher specialist called green backyard. They recommend using a 20ah car battery and a 60W panel (they don't make them). This seems really bulky to me if perhaps I can get similar performance with your product.
@@23DanielVincent typically solar needs good sunlight however if your camera is getting crazy amounts of events then partial sun may be enough to keep it topped off
@@jedidiah5131 no sir. Nothing I can do about it. Basically the factory in China is the one to blame. China factorys are notorious for it and no way to hold them accountable. Been a lot of emotions over this whole deal. I actually found out in November the factory intended to sell my panel to other people. Made me sick
@@herd360 Sorry to hear that...We need to support the small guy as much as possible. You keep coming up with good stuff so keep doing what you do best....
