Below is an example of what you can run throughout a day if you are generating 2,250Wh of energy (~3 sunlight hours, Winter).
We do NOT recommend using this off grid solar kit for Water Heating, Space Heating or Cooking applications - learn more.

25W Lighting
6 hours a day (150Wh)

100W Television
2 hours a day (200Wh)

60W Laptop Charging
2 hours a day (1200Wh)

2000W Microwave
10 Minutes (340Wh)

Efficient Fridge/Freezer
24 hours a day (1000Wh)

25W Phone Charger
6 hours a day (150Wh)

1800W Kettle
15 Minutes (300Wh)
This list is a guide to what you might run in the course of a day, but can be swapped out to suit your needs, (within the daily Watt hour estimations). This estimate is based off the NZ winter average of 3 hours of sunlight per day (Summer averages about 7 hours). This doesn't account for situations in which you may have to cut back on your power use or supplement with a generator due to several days of poor weather preventing your battery bank from adequately recharging each day.

Solar Van Kit/Weekend Cabin Kit:
All Hardware Included
This solar van kit / weekend cabin kit comes with everything you need to get up and running off grid - including all the cables, crimp connections, circuit breakers, and mounting hardware. (Depending on your setup you may need to buy conduit to run the wire through, which is not included in the kit, as this will vary for every install).
We also offer the tools required if you wish to make any changes or alterations to the base kit, and a number of related accessories.


Equipment We Trust for Off Grid
We use EPEVER charge controllers and inverters, which can be connected to a WiFi or bluetooth module for more detailed configuration and monitoring. The standard inverter comes with a universal wall outlet, so it doesn't have to be wired into a switch board.
Trina Perc Mono solar panels are our panel of choice. They use the latest technology to ensure their panels are as efficient as possible, meaning they produce 330W+ from a size where most panels only produce 270W at the best of times.
All our kits come with our 200Ah 12V battery, specifically designed for solar usage - no trickle charging needed. We are so confident in this battery we offer our warranty based on a 50% Depth of Discharge (DoD), while most companies only warranty a 20% DoD.
