Wildgame Innovations Outdoor Hunting Power Deer Feeder Battery Charger Edrenaline Solar Panel

I have used these panels to retrofit Moultrie Pro Magnum feeders due to the Moultrie solar panels being garbage. These typically last several seasons. The metal mounting bracket and wire conduit are also raccoon proof as long as you securely Mount them to the feeder. This will keep two six volt batteries fully charged even in partial shade. Overall, this is probably the best 6 volt solar charger out there

After using this solar panel for a full season I am very satisfied with the result, the feeder has run six months on the same battery. Gave it a four on ease of installation because I had to fabricate a simple bracket to mount it like I wanted, so be aware some fitting may be needed. Wiring is simple and straight forward, just make sure you use sealant around the hole the conduit passes through and zip tie the extra to prevent raccoons from pulling it down. I am going to convert all of my feeders to solar after this test run because it has worked so well.

I bought this solar charger to replace one that was vandalized while on a hunting lease. It had ran, without fail for almost 3 years, with my feeder battery fully charged and functional. I hooked up a drained 6V rechargeable, with 0 volts on my multimeter. In the bright sun, the solar panel showed 6.4 volts charging the battery. By late afternoon, I had 6.2 volts in the battery. BE AWARE-Some makers send these chargers out with the wiring reversed. If your solar charger reads minus (-) before the displayed voltage, on a multimeter, the polarity is backwards. I had two solar panels from another company that did just that. I read about it in a review. I cut and soldered the red and black wires, red to black and black to red. My multi meter did not have a minus before the voltage displayed, so I know the polarity is right. Both solar panels are still working. If you try charging a battery with the minus showing, it will ruin (short) your battery and it will never charge again. This panel by Wildgame, is wired correctly, and will go into service soon.

Initial assessment would say it is smaller than expected but worked well for charging my 6V battery for my Wildgame Innovations deer feeder. Cord was long enough to reach the control box and battery. Like the protected wiring. Like how there was a Package listing on Amazon that had the recommendations for the feeder purchased. Very good installation instructions and comes with self tapping hardware. This is a must for deer feeder. Note: other customers stated this did not fuller charge their battery. It does fully charge my battery when the feeder Is not hooked up, otherwise noticed it did not fully even in bright sun, and agree that I had to match the use amount to the sunlight because your battery will drain down and the timer will go dead.

Works great

Unit has approximately 4-1/2 ft of lead wires. Small alligator clips colored accordingly. 2 ft 2" from solar panel is armored with flex-metal sheath that has set screw couplings that allow securing to metal bulkheads to prevent wire pull. Solar panel is approx 5-1/2" X 3-5/8" X 1/2" clear plastic encased. Unit comes with a metal mounting plate for the feeder; screws included. Measured output of panel in full sunlight was 9 volts, no load. This little panel was purchased to recharge UB645 batteries that power a shortwave receiver during extended power outages and remote base camp operations. I couldn't measure the watt output with my current meter, but from other source data, it should keep a UB645 battery topped off with 7 hours full sunlight charging. The panel came disassembled from mounting plate. The mounting plate offers a wide range of mounting possibilities for the home tinkerer. Unit appears to be ruggedly built and weather resistant. One description picture detail; the unit is NOT metal framed as the picture leads one to believe. There are holes around outside edges that one could mount metal angle trim for further edge protection. So far, this little panel seems to do it's designed task. The small size does not have a large profile signature and numerous mounting possibilities for those who need concealment. Based on initial handling & tests, I recommend this to those who desire a small panel for back-up or low profile charging needs of 6 Volt UB645 batteries.

Easy install. Charges great. Make sure your silicone the hole you drill in the battery box.

I run many feeders on my ranch. I use them for everything from feeding wild game to feeding my live stock. I only use the Wild Game Innovations 6-Volt eDRENALINE Solar Panel. I have tried others, but they are cheaply made with plastic mounting bases and exposed wires. Not the Wild Game Innovations 6-Volt eDRENALINE Solar Panel. It has a sturdy aluminum mounting base and the wires are encased in non corroding flex tubing with a nice fastening system to secure it to the feeder housing. I just had to replace one of these panels two weeks ago, because the old one was getting to weak to keep the battery up on my live stock feeder (multiple long run times per day). The old panel is more then 6 years old though and it still produces enough power for a normal wild game feeder situation. Note: Just in case you can't figure this out on your own. When securing the flex tubing to the feeder box housing, pull the flex tube all the way through the housing and affix the inside clamp to the end of the tubing first. Then pull the flex tube back into the housing and tighten the outside clamp. It is a lot easier then trying to tighten that little clamp screw on the inside clamp while inside the housing.
