SHS Micro renewable energy generator kits

The SHS range is intended to provide power where installing a mains supply would be inconvenient or too expensive.

Many smart home owners and businesses are installing SHS systems to work independently of their existing grid supply to protect themselves from the ever increasing costs of energy. They also provide a guaranteed electricity supply in the event of power cuts.

It is very easy to set up an emergency lighting system to automatically switch on when the power fails. A solar emergency lighting system will provide illumination that you can actually use for hours in comparison to emergency lighting luminaires.

The SPS system is suitable for:

· Homes

· Summer houses

· Static caravans

· Occasional office

· Workshops

· Garden sheds

· Beach huts

Six easy steps to self sufficiency:

· Position the solar panel

· Install the battery in its box

· Connect solar panel to the box

· Connect inverter to the box

· Switch on

· Start using your free solar power.

The battery box is pre-wired and you only have to connect the red and black wire to the battery at the terminals marked red and black.

The battery comes pre-charged.

The SPS80 kit delivers up to 330 Wh (Watt hours) per day and can typically power appliances such as lighting, TVs, games machines, DVD players, Sky boxes, table lamps, occasional pc / lap top use, alarm systems etc for between 2 ~ 4 hours per day.

If longer run times or additional appliances need to be powered a bigger SPS kit should be considered or the addition of an 80W SPS expansion kit.
