6V Edrenaline Solar Panel

Works great

Easy install. Charges great. Make sure your silicone the hole you drill in the battery box.

After using this solar panel for a full season I am very satisfied with the result, the feeder has run six months on the same battery. Gave it a four on ease of installation because I had to fabricate a simple bracket to mount it like I wanted, so be aware some fitting may be needed. Wiring is simple and straight forward, just make sure you use sealant around the hole the conduit passes through and zip tie the extra to prevent raccoons from pulling it down. I am going to convert all of my feeders to solar after this test run because it has worked so well.

Nice solar charger. Comes with alligator clips. My American Hunter XDE Pro feeder only has a round plug for solar attachment. This is an easy fix ( cutting the 2 wires on the back of the round plug and hard wiring to the charger), but you should know that for most new feeders, this is not a plug and play application unless you trust cheap alligator clips. The main body of the charger seems over engineered (a big plus), and the mounting bracket and wire protector are an added value. I will definitely buy another when I add another deer feeder. I had a more expensive charger that quit working after 2 months (battery was tested and was fine). If this one lasts at least a full feeding season, it will be well worth the $.

I have used these panels to retrofit Moultrie Pro Magnum feeders due to the Moultrie solar panels being garbage. These typically last several seasons. The metal mounting bracket and wire conduit are also raccoon proof as long as you securely Mount them to the feeder. This will keep two six volt batteries fully charged even in partial shade. Overall, this is probably the best 6 volt solar charger out there

Works great

Unit has approximately 4-1/2 ft of lead wires. Small alligator clips colored accordingly. 2 ft 2" from solar panel is armored with flex-metal sheath that has set screw couplings that allow securing to metal bulkheads to prevent wire pull. Solar panel is approx 5-1/2" X 3-5/8" X 1/2" clear plastic encased. Unit comes with a metal mounting plate for the feeder; screws included. Measured output of panel in full sunlight was 9 volts, no load. This little panel was purchased to recharge UB645 batteries that power a shortwave receiver during extended power outages and remote base camp operations. I couldn't measure the watt output with my current meter, but from other source data, it should keep a UB645 battery topped off with 7 hours full sunlight charging. The panel came disassembled from mounting plate. The mounting plate offers a wide range of mounting possibilities for the home tinkerer. Unit appears to be ruggedly built and weather resistant. One description picture detail; the unit is NOT metal framed as the picture leads one to believe. There are holes around outside edges that one could mount metal angle trim for further edge protection. So far, this little panel seems to do it's designed task. The small size does not have a large profile signature and numerous mounting possibilities for those who need concealment. Based on initial handling & tests, I recommend this to those who desire a small panel for back-up or low profile charging needs of 6 Volt UB645 batteries.

I haven't had to charge the battery in the deer feeder since I got this installed, works great.
