GardePro Solar Panel SP300

What it is and what it is for
The GardePro SP300 solar panel is designed to charge and power trail cameras specified by GardePro. Its purpose is to provide continuous power to compatible cameras, extending operational time and reducing reliance on internal batteries.

Main characteristics
The unit delivers a maximum output power of 3.5 W, an output voltage of 6.6 V and a maximum output current of 0.53 A. The output cable measures 4 m (13 ft) and terminates in a 5.5 × 2.1 mm plug. Product dimensions are 17.5 × 14.8 × 1.5 cm (6.22 × 5.28 × 0.59 in) and weight is 255 g. Operating temperature range is -20 to 60 °C (-4 to 140 °F) and the manual lists an operating humidity of 5%–95%.

Mounting and protection
The panel features a tripod-style mounting base (1/4-20) and the box includes a mounting bracket with 3 screws. The product page states an IP65 waterproof rating; the manual contains the literal notation "IP653" (both references are transcribed from the manufacturer's documentation).

Compatibility
GardePro lists compatibility only with the following models: E6P, E8P, E8PMB, E8PCF, E8PWF, E8 2.0 Pro, E9P, E9PMB, E9PCF, E9PWF, E9 2.0 Pro, A80 Pro, R3 Pro, X50P, X50MB, X50PMB, X50PLMB, X60P, X60PMB, X60PLMB, X66 Pro, X70 Pro and X80 Pro. Confirm your camera model is included before purchasing.

Box contents and warnings
According to the manual, the package includes 1 solar panel, 1 mounting bracket, 3 screws and 1 instruction manual. The manual warns that the front/back surface is plastic—do not puncture or pierce the protective sheet. The manufacturer does not specify the cable gauge in the available documentation.

Important notes
Verify the camera connector type and model compatibility. Check the IP rating discrepancy between IP65 (product page) and the manual's "IP653" if waterproofing is critical for outdoor use.
