The Wildeye NP Series Solar Bracket is a rugged outdoor solar panel combined with a mounting bracket designed to mount the Wildeye and power it continuously for typical remote sensing applications. 

The panel and bracket feature aluminum frames for long-lasting rust-proof operation.

The solar bracket comes with a polarized M8 connector to plug directly into your Wildeye power cable: the Wildeye comes with solar recharging capability directly built in.

The NP Series Solar Bracket is typically used to power Wildeyes used in the following applications:

  • Soil Moisture & Irrigation Monitoring
  • Reservoir and Pond Monitoring
  • Well & Ground water Monitoring
  • Surface water monitoring
  • Flow Monitoring (not including the meter)
  • Tank Level Monitoring
