The Tecmate Optimate Solar Duo 20W Travel Kit is a comprehensive solar-powered battery charging and maintenance solution for vehicles and equipment during storage periods. This weatherproof system includes a 20W solar panel and the TM522-D2TK 6-stage smart charger, which delivers a charging current of 1.6A for 12V and 12.8V lead-acid and lithium batteries. The intelligent charging algorithm features six different stages: desulfation, soft start, absorption, analysis, float, and maintenance charging to optimize battery health and lifespan. With dimensions of approximately 53 cm x 35 cm when unfolded, the solar panel generates sufficient power to maintain batteries in stored vehicles such as cars, trucks, boats, UTVs, and RVs. The system operates effectively in various weather conditions with its IP65-rated weatherproof construction, making it suitable for outdoor use. The charger automatically detects the battery chemistry and adjusts the charging parameters accordingly, supporting both conventional lead-acid and modern lithium battery technologies. With reverse polarity protection and automatic voltage detection, the system ensures safe operation without manual configuration. The compact travel design features integrated carrying handles and foldable panels for convenient storage and transport. The solar panel is equipped with highly efficient monocrystalline cells that continue to charge even in partial shading, while the smart charger continuously monitors the battery condition to prevent overcharging or deep discharging. This system is particularly valuable for seasonal vehicles or equipment that undergo longer storage periods, as it maintains battery readiness and extends overall battery life through proper maintenance charging cycles.
