Power Up Your Work Ute: Solar Solution for the Modern Tradie
Always-On Power for Your Hilux
Has your work fridge ever run flat during a long day on site? You're not alone. This is a common problem for tradies and mobile workers. And we've got a solution that is ideal under the Australian climate.
Smart Solar Integration
We've taken this Hilux's existing dual battery setup to the next level by adding a Redarc solar panel mounted cleverly to the rear toolbox.
We've wired it directly into the Redarc BCDC solar input circuit, to keep the auxiliary battery charged while the 12-volt portable fridge is running.
The Redarc BCDC charger constantly monitors your auxiliary battery's voltage and is able to regulate the charge rate accordingly.
This means:
- Your battery gets exactly the charge it needs.
- Your fridge stays running reliably all day.
- No more battery anxiety during long work days.
- Zero maintenance required once installed.
Vehicle solar panels are ideal during those long summer days on site, or when you're parked up at a job for hours. Your fridge keeps running, your auxiliary battery stays topped up, and you never have to think about it. That's the main advantage of solar - it just works, silently doing its job while you do yours.
While we completed this solar panel installation on a work ute, the same principles apply whether you're:
- Running a mobile workshop.
- Keeping your lunch fresh on site.
- Using your Hilux for weekend adventures.
- Operating power tools off your auxiliary battery.
Why Choose Us?
- Expertise in auto electrical installations.
- Use of high-quality components.
- Live-time warranty on workmanship.
