And Bluetooth connectivity lets you monitor battery status on your mobile device!

5 Year

Battery Life

Our state-of-the-art batteries have a cycle life of more than 2000 cycles, with a lifespan four times longer than lead-acid batteries. For most users that adds up to more than five years of battery life!

400 W

Solar Panel Array

This van is powered by 2 Renogy 200-watt solar panels for a total system capacity of 300 watts. The durable panels offer a reliable lifespan of over 10 years. Innovative MPPT technology of the charge controller with the high conversion efficiency of up to 95%, maximize the power you generated.

3Ways

to Charge

Our mobile solar + storage solution has built-in flexibility to recharge your batteries with your start battery, solar panels or grid power. You can even use these charging methods together to minimize the charging time and get fully charged in 2.6 hours.
