AA 12 V Car Solar Battery Trickle Charger

Excellent product. Keeps car battery charged whilst the car is not in use. Easy to install and use.

I purchased this solar charger after my vehicle battery needed to be replaced at a cost of £300 due to lack of use over the lockdown period. I knew nothing about batteries until mine reported on the EMS that the car always had a low battery. When i researched the problem it became apparent that SLA batteries that pretty much all cars use should not be discharged below 50% or they will start to suflate which causes permeant damage. Having not used my car very much over lockdown due to the WFH policy my battery had suffered this permanent damage. I didn't want the same thing to happen again to my replacement battery so i invested in this AA trickle charger.

No flat battery since using this solar panel but can’t be certain I’d have had any problems without it. Only complaint is that it could definitely do with a permanently fixed led showing it is generating power - as its smaller 2.4w cousin has.

I have a Stop/Start SEAT, battery went low and wouldn't start the car.
But it had enough power to shut windows/lock car/fold mirrors.
Sat over weekend 2 1/2 days to be precise, mixed weather.
Went to it on Monday morning, started straight away.
I was apprehensive on buying it, but on advice I bought it.
100% recommended.

This solar panel car battery trickle charger is a useful device for keeping your car battery topped up when parked for long periods of time.
The panel is the size of a dinner tray and is quite robust without being too heavy.
It connects via the OBD socket which is usually located just under the dashboard. This socket has direct connections to the car battery which are not affected by the ignition being turned off.
I would recommend this item.
