Hi, Is it possible to buy a Y connector from you for an Evo Elite 12V solar panel? Its because i have an extra one that is excess to requirements and I thought rather than throw it away i would use it with the existing one i have for extra battery charge. thanks Kind regds Paul Hulse
Asked by PAUL HULSE on 29 Nov 2023
This is not possible I am afraid the panel will only work with the light it is intended for and can only have one panel at a time.
I am considering purchasing a Smart solar Wychwoods falls water feature, but reading reviews have differing comments about working in poor light. I have previously purchased 2 x EVO SMD security lights from you and was wondering if you the booster Panel would allow the feature to run on duller days or would this require a battery type storage
Asked by John Ball on 17 Jul 2017
We don't stock that water feature so we're unaway of the specifcations however the Astron Booster is a 12v solar panel so may be compatible with it.
do you sell a led light that works with this panel
Asked by alan on 22 Oct 2016
No, the Astron range has been discontinued as the technology has really moved on. These panel are designed just for replacements of our legacy Astron range.
hi i want to connect my astron booster panel to a 12 volt car battery do i need a charge controller or just connect the plus and minus to the battery terminals
Asked by alan on 21 Oct 2016
Correct, you'd need a charge controller to manage the power output of the panel.
you say this can trickle charge a 12V battery (I presume Car Battery), what Ah size Battery and at what rate? please
Asked by Chris Peeling on 5 Oct 2016
The Ah of the battery does not matter as this simply refers to the maximum capacity of the battery. The panel in optimum conditions will provide 10watts of power into a 12 v battery per hr. In summer you can expect this panel to produce 65watts per day and in winter 15 watts per day.
hi how do I put this onto existing light
Asked by a ogden on 2 Oct 2014
The booster panel comes with a "Y" connector to give another socket for another cable. If you do not have a connector with your booster panel please contact: Returns@TheSolarCentre.co.uk
