SOLAR DUO 40W TRAVEL KIT - TecMate

The TecMate TM522-D4TK SOLAR DUO 40W TRAVEL KIT provides a robust, portable solution for maintaining and charging 12V lead-acid and 12.8V/13.2V lithium (LiFePO4/LFP) batteries in professional automotive and industrial settings. This kit features a high-efficiency 40W polycrystalline solar panel paired with a smart charge controller, ensuring optimal battery health for vehicles and equipment stored off-grid or for extended periods. Its durable, weatherproof construction makes it suitable for demanding work environments.

Key Features

• Universal Battery Compatibility: Designed to intelligently charge and maintain all 12V STD, AGM, GEL lead-acid batteries (from 2-240Ah) and 12.8V/13.2V LiFePO4/LFP lithium batteries.
• Advanced Smart Charging: The OptiMate Solar DUO controller employs a 6-step, fully automatic program that converts low solar energy into effective pulse charging, adapting to the battery's specific type and condition to maximize lifespan.
• Day/Night Monitoring: Functions as an active charger by day and transitions to a battery monitor at night, continuously providing insight into battery status and preventing discharge from connected systems.
• Battery Saving Capability: Capable of recovering deeply discharged batteries with a low-volt start function from as low as 4V, extending battery service life.
• Durable & Weatherproof Construction: Features a robust 40W polycrystalline solar panel with an aluminum frame, designed for outdoor use and rated IP54 for resistance to weather elements. The charge controller is also encased in a weatherproof housing.
• Portable and Versatile Setup: The travel kit includes an adjustable rear stand for optimal panel positioning, along with multiple connection options including battery clips and a fused battery lead with ring terminals, all neatly stored in a nylon carry bag.
