Our solar systems are designed for long term operation of your GoPro camera off the grid for construction time lapse photography and wildlife photography or security. The Solar Kit consists of a 9W panel that upgrades your  CamDo SolarX system to 18W of solar power (2 x 9W panels from the standard 1 x 9W panel). About Compatibility FAQ's Support Return Policy The Solar Kit adds an extra 9W solar panel to give you a total of 18W of power (2 x 9W panels) when using DryX/SolarX. It comes with all necessary attachments (ball arm, socket) and wiring to get up and running in no time with your existing DryX/SolarX. The SolarX outdoor enclosure is fitted with a sturdy aluminum mounting bracket that contains multiple ¼"-20 threaded holes on the top, back, and bottom for use with standard tripod screws. Each solar panel is simply attached to this bracket using the included ¼"-20 ball mount and associated socket arm so the panel can be positioned for optimum sun exposure. The 9W Solar Panel Kit includes a "(2Fx1M) Y-cable" that can be used to connect two solar panels to simultaneously charge a single V50 (included with SolarX). Alternatively, our outdoor housings can fit two V50 battery packs that can each be charged from a separate solar panel. So if one panel gets dirty or covered by shadow, the second panel will continue to work hard for your project.

Solar System Compatibility ( Y / N ) SolarX (HSO04) ✔ DryX with V50 (HDR05) ✔ Previous Solar systems (without aluminum mounting bracket) ✘ Frequently Asked Questions Which CamDo Solar System is compatible with the SolarX-18W upgrade? The SolarX-18W upgrade is only compatible with the SolarX system. It is not compatible with previous versions. Refer Compatibility tab. How do I setup my system? View the Solar Power System set-up guide here. Will the solar panel be able to keep my time lapse running indefinitely? This would depend on the shooting cycle used and the sun exposure available in your location. We advise all customers to calculate their battery needs due to the many variables. We have a Time Lapse Calculator that can be used to help determine your ideal shooting interval and how long your battery should theoretically last using our controller boards and batteries. The Calculator also gives the rate at which the solar panel should be able to recharge your battery at your given location and with the panel angle that is used. Keep in mind that temperature, battery fatigue, and other electrical inefficiencies will prevent the camera from using the full battery capacity. How long will the battery last before it is discharged? It depends on many factors including your latitude, the amount of sun and cloud during your shoot, the controller you are using, the camera you are using and the shooting schedule you have programmed. There are too many variables to give a perfect answer but we have created a Time Lapse Calculator to work out the best setup for your shoot in your location. This uses our analysis of the power consumption of the various GoPro cameras and provides an explanation of how to calculate the theoretical battery life. Practically, we have run the system indefinitely taking one picture every 15 minutes with the WiFi on, in Canada in the summer. General support can be found on our Support pages here.
