The Sunforce 50022 5 Watt Solar Battery Trickle Charger gives you another reason to love the sun -- it'll help keep your vehicle's battery charged. Just plug the this helpful 5-watt trickle charger into your vehicle's 12-volt lighter socket and position the panel to pick up the most daylight possible.

Regardless of how you hook up the battery charger, you'll never get caught off guard without the juice you need to start your car. You can also use this device to maintain the charge on any 12-volt battery for clean, silent operation of various electronics, such as deer feeders and landscaping pumps. The 50022 features a built-in ultra-bright blue LED charging indicator, and is a great choice for automobiles, recreational vehicles (RV), tractors, all terrain vehicles (ATV), boats, electric fences, telemetry and more, and it is even effective on cloudy days.
