“Alternator to DC works fine however solar input cuts out immediately at 23VDC input as specified. Unfortunately, most quality, modern solar blankets put out about 24V open circuit so charger faults out rendering the solar regulator useless.”

“Had this mounted under my bonnet for approx 2 years now. I purposely held back a review until some time had passed, cause let's face it, even the cheapy junk will work temporarily, so wanted to be sure I could give an honest opinion. So far, I have not had a single issue with it. Battery is always charged and mounting it was very easy. Would highly recommend this great bit of kit!”
“I had a problem with the first one been delivered. Just sending photos and videos to show them the issue the support team without any hesitation sent me a new one with an express delivery. Got it at home in WA in 2 days and saved my holiday about to start after one day. Easy to install. Works great. I recommend these guys. Legend!”
