One of the world’s first lightweight, solar Trackers for Motorcaravans has been launched onto the market.
It enables RV owners to maximise solar energy on the go with an automated tracking system for flexible solar panels.
The Solartrackr is an automated solar trackers designed for mobile homes. It has the unique capability to follow the sun’s movement throughout the day. Thus ensuring optimal energy capture, even in fixed camping spots.
This product offers independence, sustainability, and efficiency for outdoor enthusiasts and is available now for pre-order from Indiegogo.
The Solartrackr addresses a common problem faced by RV owners. Flat-mounted solar panels often fail to capture maximum sunlight due to fixed vehicle positions.
It uses CityFreighter’s tracking technology. And provides a smart solution by automatically adjusting the panel position to follow the sun. That increases energy yield and enables a more sustainable, off-grid experience.
Features of the Solartrackr:
- Automated Sun Tracking: The Solartrackr uses an integrated sun sensor to adjust panel positioning throughout the day, maximizing solar exposure and energy production.
- Wind Sensor for Safety: An integrated wind sensor ensures the panel returns to a secure horizontal position during high winds to prevent damage.
- Lightweight and Durable Design: Made from aluminum and using maintenance-free components from IGUS, the Solartrackr weighs only 21 kg, including the solar panel.
- Versatile Applications: Ideal for RVs, trailers, food trucks, flat-roof houses, and mobile homes, the Solartrackr offers broad compatibility and ease of installation.
“We developed the Solartrackr based on feedback from the RV industry,” says Michael. Schoening, founder of CityFreighter. “Our work in electric cab chassis platforms highlighted a strong need for a mobile solar tracking solution. The Solartrackr meets that demand, providing a high-efficiency energy source that enhances independence for RV and mobile homeowners.”
