Product description

This reliable off-grid solar Belisha beacon is designed for locations without mains power, delivering dependable performance year-round. A 93-watt cylindrical solar panel optimised for low-angle winter sunlight is vertically mounted for simple, error-free installation, while its design reduces performance losses caused by partial shading. A smart regulator with Bluetooth connectivity, paired with an AGM battery, ensures consistent and dependable operation.

Details

At the heart of the system is an oversized 93-watt cylindrical solar panel. Its vertical mounting orientation significantly reduces installation errors associated with panel alignment, while the cylindrical form factor enables superior collection of low-angle winter sunlight, when energy demand is typically highest. During summer months, extended daylight hours and shorter nights further enhance overall system performance. The advanced interconnection of the solar cells also minimises the effects of partial shading, ensuring consistent energy generation in challenging environments.

The system is completed with a smart solar regulator featuring Bluetooth-enabled data logging, paired with a high-quality AGM battery. This combination provides efficient energy management, system monitoring, and dependable long-term performance
