> Larson Electronics released a solar powered generator with a solar light tower that includes 4 solar panels, a solar charging system, battery bank and a mast mounted on a trailer with outriggers and a removable tongue.
>
> The SPLT-1.2K-200A-19 is a 1.2 KW solar generator system <http://www.larsonelectronics.com/p-104759-12kw-solar-power-generator-with-crank-up-light-tower-mast-19-manual-crank-mast-trailer-mounted.aspx>that replenishes 100 amp hours of usable battery capacity per day. The system delivers 24 volts for lighting, cameras, sensors or other electronic equipment mounted atop a 19 foot collapsible mast. The unit is comprised of four 300-watt solar panels, generating a total maximum output of 1.2 KW. The panels are mounted to a rotating axis assembly and can be rotated until they face inwards, which protects the panels during transport. When deployed, the panels are rotated until they face upwards.
>
> Each panel is terminated with a fused combiner box with a single lever action cut-off switch. With the switch set to the ‘on’ position, the combiner box passes power to the 80 amp capacity Outback Extreme charge controller. The charge controller charges a 200 amp battery bank. This 24-volt battery system is comprised of four 6-volt batteries tied together in series and parallel. The batteries are spaced apart, strapped to the battery tray and covered with a protective shield. In order to ensure that the 50 percent threshold on the batteries is controlled, the solar trailer includes a system of min/max voltage sensors and relays that monitor the voltage produced by the batteries and will automatically shut off power distribution when the battery capacity falls below 50 percent.
