Customer Reviews on this Product
(24/12/2009)

Excellent value and does just what it says on the box. Ideal for keeping the battery on my motorcycle charged this winter.

Robert (17/11/2009)

Does exactly what said on the box

paul (16/10/2009)

I only drive three miles to work each day and my car is parked up for long periods.This solar panel is ideal for keeping my battery topped up.

Now i can be confident my car will start at 3am this winter.

Gary (01/10/2009)

This panel is ideal for trickle charging my diesel car battery that is used very infrequently.
It maintains sufficient charge so that even while the car alarm and Immobiliser systems are working continuously the battery remains in fully charged state.
After fixing the panel to the inside of the window using the suckers the cable can be trapped in the wound up window and run under the closed car bonnet. The winter months still provide sufficient output.

(15/07/2009)

The crocodile clip fell apart on first use, but seemed to work OK, though it's hard to tell when the battery is actually charging as the blue light flashes all the time.

Q- L58BF Auto Charger, the blue neon light has stopped flashing it just remains illuminated blue, is this normal or OK ? - robin felts

Answer- This is normal.

Q- can this be used to charge a battery that is in use? - JS

Answer- Yes the product does support that (assuming of course that the item using the battery is not consuming more power than the panel is providing).

Q- Do you have available the mating connectors so that I can extend the cable run(other than the crock clips and cigar lighter plug)? - Andrew

Answer- Unfortunately not.

Q- I have a slight drain on my battery will this product counteract this and keep my battery charged as I only use my car twice a week. Also My cigarrette lighter is only active when my ignition is on, can I connect directly on to my battery - Paul

Answer- Yes the product does support that.

Q- I bought one of these and I found it was putting out 24 volts not 12 - Clive

Answer- If you a measuring this without a load being placed on the panel this is completely normal (as a multimeter for example will give an incorrect reading from the panel if it is not on a load).

Answer- Yes the product does support that.
