Kyocera d-Blue Solar Panels

Kyocera have been in the solar power business for over 30 years and continue to be world leaders in all aspects of research & development on clean, environmentally friendly solar power.

Anywhere the sun shines, Kyocera Solar Panels can be relied upon to provide your power requirements - in fact they have achieved the world's highest energy conversion efficiency (17.1%). 

Or to put it in laymans terms, Kyocera's surface treatment technology maximises the amount of sunlight absorbed which means you get more power generated.  In fact, they produce more electricity for the sunlight they are exposed to than any other solar panel.

Don't just take our word for it.  You can see real time independent comparisons at http://www.dkasolarcentre.com.au/

Kyocera panels are also ideal in RV situations - we have anecdotal reports that they withstand stones, branches and other things that the Australian environment throw at them better than any other panel.  So if you plan on travelling the country and are looking for robust reliable solar panels, you can't go past Kyocera.

Kyocera panels also feature a unique busbar connection which means they perform well even in partly shaded conditions.

And to top it all off, Kyocera Solar Panels come with a 20 year power output transferable warranty – so no matter where the panel goes, the warranty stays with it.

 

 

Morningstar Solar Regulators/Charge Controllers

A good solar regulator is the key to system reliability & battery capacity and life.  Poor system components are responsible for 99% of solar power repair problems (US Dept of Energy).

Morningstar is the worlds number one supplier of solar regulators - and can boast that 99.8% of their products never fail.  That's less than two returned units for every 1000 sold.  Morningstar's incredible record of reliability makes them the regulator of choice.  Worldwide!

That's why they come with a full five year warranty - and an expected lifetime of 15 years or more.

Depending on the application, Morningstar Regulators perform one or more of the following functions:

~ efficiently utilises the energy generated by the solar panels to fully recharge your batteries

~ prevents overcharging of the battery and excessive gassing

~ minimises heating of the battery

~ avoids undercharging of batteries (which leads to loss of service life)

~ prevents over discharge damage to your batteries

~ indicators (meters, LED's) for system status & performance

~ alarms for early warning of system problems

 

Fullriver Deep Cycle AGM Batteries

Deep cycle batteries are designed for long slow power draw - making them ideal for power storage banks.

Fullriver DEEP Cycle AGM Batteries have a high cycle life - giving you a much longer battery life.  They also have faster recharge times and excellent recovery from deep discharge.

AGM technology means the battery is totally sealed, so there is no maintenance and you are protected from gases and fumes.  Their high strength case makes them highly resistant to shock & vibration and ideal for 'on the road' situations.

Fullriver batteries' quality is recognised around the world.  They come with a 12 month warranty.

 

Latronics Pure Sine Wave Inverters

To convert the DC power stored in your battery bank to high quality useable AC mains electricty you need an inverter.  True sine wave inverters enable you to power demanding modern appliances such as fridges, microwaves, TV's and washing machines.

Latronics Pure Sine Wave Inverters guarantee pure & stable power conversion.  Their advanced circuitry provides protection against overload, short circuit and high/low voltage shutdowns.  The standby mode automatically turns the inverter on and off with load - saving you valuable power.

Proudly designed & manufactured in Australia, Latronics Pure Sine Wave Inverters come with a two year parts & labour warranty.
