Reveal Camera Compatible Solar Charger Kit with Mount- 1500mAH / 7.4- DC-12V

Waited 2 years for this review, Reason was I bought many other name brands and within 6 to 12 months they would not work anymore! I have had these on my game cameras at the ranch and they keep the camera charged and running without any problems! Need to buy more soon!

I installed this solar charger on 3 bigfoot cameras a month ago. They are taking 80 pictures/day and were running batteries down in 2 months w/o the solar charger. After installing the solar charger, the cameras are staying at 100% charged now for a month and I just generally pointed the panel at southwest sky. So it works well. the mounting was easy--one I just wired to a post, two I screwed into a tree limb. The cord is long enough to reach a few feet which was very handy for one spot where the camera was on the wrong side of a tree--I put charger on the SW side of tree.

This product is exactly what they say it is and works perfect. I’ve been running one non stop with the gen 1 tactacam reveal for a year straight and haven’t had an issue yet!! Very pleased with this product and plan to buy more as well as let everyone I know in on the secret. It’s plug and play on the reveal. Nothing else is needed. Charge it fully before taking it to the field and your worries are gone.

I have no way to test it. I hooked it up to a Bigfoot cellular camera and had no problems doing that. It will be awhile before I know if it make the batteries last longer. Quality seems good. Did not come with any directions. Came with a small mounting "bracket" that is not mentioned in the advertising.

These have been awesome and saved me a ton on batteries or just having to worry about it.

The solar panel works great. The lack of instructions is a bit frustrating. I ended up throwing away the locking washer on the mount before I realized I needed it. Definitely plug the panels in to charge the internal battery before using them. I strongly suggest looking up the angle you need to mount the panel at before you place it. The panels have been in place for several weeks now in subfreezing weather and snow. The daily reports still show the batteries charged at 100%. I would definitely buy these again.

Installed the panel in June 2020. As of this week, January 12 2022, the lithium battery in the panel will no longer hold a charge for more than a few hours. I've been bringing it inside the last few days and charging it on my home current. It gets about 3 hours of sunlight each day this time of year which until this week was enough to keep it fully charged. I think the lithium battery has reached its lifespan. I can't replace the battery because it's sealed inside the panel so I guess I'll have to consider buying another one.

The description on the solar charger says it is a 12v plug. My camera has a 12volt plugin but the plug in did not fit my camera. It says on the description that a camera may require a different adapter. The seller did not provide information on the type of adapter needed There is nothing on their website about a different adapter. Amazon declined to accept my return at this time. So unless the seller is honorable, I'm out $69.95. I am retired, on a fixed income. I am terribly upset.
