The Marine Solar Stik™

Originally designed for the marine community, the Solar Stik™ allows for placement of 12VDC power generating equipment in a single location without monopolizing precious deck-space or cockpit canvas structures. The original concept behind the Solar Stik™ was to overcome the problems associated with large fixed mount solar systems on cruising vessels. The result was a fully maneuverable (triple axis) solar system with two solar panels that can be aimed at the sun from morning until evening, regardless of the vessel's orientation to the sun.

Panels that operate all day, not just 4 hours

With as little as two to three manual adjustments per day, you can increase the time during the day that you produce solar power. Depending on the latitude and time of year, the system will produce as much as 80 Amp-hours per day from the panels alone, and if the system is operating with a wind generator on the Solar Stik™ Mast-top mount, the system can produce much more.

The Solar Stik™ is designed to handle harsh marine elements and has withstood rigorous testing on the open water for the last eight years. If you want the freedom to go where you want WITHOUT having to plan for refueling locations, costs, and WITHOUT having to contend with generator noise and fumes, the Solar Stik™ is your total solution.

Return to the dock because you want to, not because you have to

The Solar Stik™ is purchased as a complete system and easily installs to most vessels. It includes mounting hardware, backing plates, locking plug assembly and a Solar Boost™ 2000E MPPT charge controller (including battery temperature sensor.)

Customize the Solar Stik™ with custom mounting and accessories and maximize the versatility of your particular application.
