Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/KIT0210:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description This Outdoor Solar Power Kit is a compact, weather-resistant energy solution tailored for outdoor monitoring systems. Designed to support off-grid applications, it utilizes a **10W monocrystalline solar panel to charge lithium batteries, delivering stable 12V and 5V outputs** for various electronic devices. By combining intelligent charging control with rugged protection, this kit ensures reliable operation in remote or harsh environments where grid power is unavailable. It is ideal for environmental monitoring, precision agriculture, and unattended outdoor sensing. **Dual Output Voltages for Broad Device Compatibility** The system provides two regulated DC outputs: 12V/1A and 5V/1A. This enables simultaneous powering of industrial-grade sensors and low-voltage controllers or IoT modules. It supports both common 5V electronics and higher-powered 12V devices, simplifying deployment across diverse projects without the need for additional converters. ![Outdoor Solar Power Kit Offers Dual Output Voltages](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/1(2)_0x0_2703838e652.webp) Figure: Outdoor Solar Power Kit Offers Dual Output Voltages **Plug-and-Play Setup with Robust Waterproof Design** All electronics are housed in a sealed waterproof enclosure with IP-grade protection. Users only need to install three 18650 lithium batteries to begin operation. The enclosure features pre-drilled mounting lugs for secure installation on poles, walls, or outdoor fixtures. The system is engineered for fast setup and long-term reliability in outdoor installations. **Efficient Solar Charging and Long Battery Life** A high-efficiency 10W solar panel ensures fast energy replenishment, capable of fully charging the batteries in approximately 8 hours under strong sunlight. The solar controller supports the installation of three 18650 lithium batteries, delivering extended runtime to support uninterrupted data collection and transmission even during cloudy days or overnight periods. Keep in mind that the battery holders are designed to fit 18650 batteries **without** a BMS. 18650s with an included BMS will still fit, but it will be a much tighter fit. **Intelligent Battery Management System** The integrated charging controller includes essential battery protection mechanisms such as overcharge protection, over-discharge prevention, and cell balancing. These features enhance battery safety, minimize maintenance needs, and extend battery service life, ensuring the system remains functional even in unattended or rugged scenarios. ### Specification Solar Power Controller PV Input Voltage: 17–20V USB Type-C Input: 5V 2A Charging Current: Up to 0.5A Charging Cut-Off Voltage: 12.6V Output Voltage: 12V/1A and 5V/1A Enclosure Dimensions: 115 × 90 × 35 mm (not including mounting tabs) Solar Panel Maximum Output: 10W Peak Voltage: 19V Peak Current: 0.51A Open-Circuit Voltage: 22.8V Short-Circuit Current: 0.55A Panel Dimensions: 210 × 31 × 17 mm ### Documents [Product Wiki](https://wiki.dfrobot.com/SKU_KIT0210_Solar_Power_Bank_Kit) [Assembly Guide](https://wiki.dfrobot.com/SKU_KIT0210_Solar_Power_Bank_Kit#target_3) ## Images - [Product image 1](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/catalog/product/K/I/KIT0210-1.jpg)
