This 15w trickle charge solar panel will help you prolong the life of your 12v batteries, by topping them up when they’re not in use. It is ideal for cars, 4wd, caravans, boats, and machinery that periodically sit idle.
The built-in diode prevents reverse charging and ensures batteries do not become discharged at night, and the included controller protects against battery overcharge. It works with AGM, gel and wet cell batteries.
How it works
Simply use the included alligator clamps and extension cable (if required) to connect your battery to the controller, and the controller to the solar panel. The panel incorporates pre-punched mounting holes if permanent fixture is desired.
Key Features

- Included controller protects batteries from overcharge
- Ultra-thin, lightweight and easy to transport
- Front face coated in our exclusive Crocskin® cell armour
- Frameless design, no rigid or breakable glass
- Fully waterproof and weatherproof
- Easy DIY installation
The Crocskin® Difference
Sitting under the baking hot sun for many hours at a time means solar mats are exposed to large quantities of ultraviolet light and generate a significant amount of heat every time they are used. The materials used in the construction of the mat must be resistant to both, as well as being flexible and impact resistant.
Our exclusive Crocskin® cell armour coating has been specifically designed with this in mind. It provides an excellent protective barrier to the solar cells, increasing their durability and lifespan.
In fact, our Crocskin® coating showed no signs of deterioration after an accelerated weathering test that simulated 30 years’ sun exposure.

Great trickle charger keeps my excavator battery topped up. Delivery was prompt, had an issue with the controller, contacted Hardkorr and a new controller was sent out within days. Highly recommend.

This is a great solar panel. Tough, small and compact with enough cable length to reach down to the batteries in the engine room on our yacht. Keeps the batteries(3) charged when we are not running the engine.
Well done ‘HARD KORR’.

This trickle charger panel works great on my caravan batteries when I put the cover on the fixed panel stops charging so it takes over and keeps the battery fully charged highly recommend.
