Solar Powered Led Lighting Systems for Portable Lighting




Advanced Power Inc. is extremely excited to offer you our new solar powered lighting kits for hunters, home owners, campers and farmers and ranchers or just about anyone who may need portable remote lighting anywhere.

These are some absolutely incredible and extremely convenient portable solar powered lighting kits. Lighting on demand for just about anything you can think of.

 Homeowners can use them to light walkways or other areas where it may not be convenient to run electricity, or where you may only need light temporarily. Have a dark corner of your yard or property? Would you like to light your driveway or entry way? These solar powered lighting kits could be the perfect solution. 

Campers, do you want an easier way to light your camping area than messing with fragile lanterns and their fuel, or using cheaply made components? Let the power of the sun that you enjoy all day, charge your batteries on these systems and provide you hours of free light at night without the mess and fuss of lantern fuels and ballasts. These are not just cheap little solar lanterns like the competition that are mostly made in China, and simply throw away models after a year of camping if  they even last that long. Most of those units only have a 1/4 of a watt of solar power and put out very dim light. These systems incorporate either a 10 watt or a 20 watt solar module which will charge your batteries for hours of bright lighting later. This is more like the ability to take the light from one of the rooms in your home to the outdoors. We offer these units with flood or spot style lighting.

Hunters, are you tired of hogs or coons eating all your corn at night and keeping the deer from getting it? Mount one of these quality lighting kits near your feeder with a green light, and gain the ability to sit until the pesky rodents come in and then take care of them with the light provided. Protect the investment of your grain and equipment. 

Farmer or Rancher, do you have a remote barn or other area of your property that you could use some convenient portable trouble free lighting? We may just have the simple solution for you here with these powerful lighting systems. Mount it on a barn for lighting around the outside or on the poles of your pens for lighting around them. (We can also design solar powered lighting systems for the interior of barns or sheds) 

There is really no end to the possible remote lighting solutions these systems can provide.
Let the power of the sun provide you the light you need for your nights. Once you pay for the system the light is free compared to conventional electricity, that's pretty cost effective lighting.
These systems are made with extremely high quality parts to provide years of dependable service.

Perhaps one of the greatest uses for these lights is just to keep outside charging for emergency lighting in case of a power outage due to storm or any other reason power may be lost. We all know power from the electric company comes and goes. These systems provide an incredible benefit as a back up lighting source. They can quickly and safely provide you needed light when the power company may fail.

If we can help you with one of  these quality lighting systems please don't hesitate to call us.

Have you ever wondered about a solar water pump and how it actually works?  
Well many of our customers were wondering the same thing before they checked out our website at solarpumps.com and got educated on our Advanced Power Inc solar well pump products.


Perhaps the best thing about our website solarpumps.com is the installation video on our home page. Most people assume you have to have a well driller or pump installer come and install your solar system. Well that just isn’t the case. Once you get a good look at this video, you will realize that anyone can do it. Yes that’s right I said anyone who is healthy enough to perform normal day to day activities can put in their own solar powered water pump up to depths of around 200 ft. If your water is deeper than that, then the weight of the pump and pipe may start to dictate that you need someone with the equipment for some heavy lifting. Still, if you don’t happen to have it, normally a neighbor or friend may have the necessary equipment instead of having to hire someone to do it.
The system we have in the video is either a K170SR4 or the K170R4. The only thing different about these systems is the warranty of the pump. The SR4 has a 2 year warranty, where the RP4 has a 5 year warranty with registration. This includes a 3 year factory warranty for defects in workmanship and materials. An additional 2 year prorated warranty can be obtained by filling out the registration form and sending it and a copy of your purchase receipt to the factory within 30 days of purchase.
The kit does not come with everything included in the video. Our solar water pumping kits that we ship all over the world include a solar pump with 100 feet of wire attached, 1, 2 or 3 solar panels depending on the size of system you order, and the mounting brackets and necessary wiring harnesses for the solar panels.


The customer is to provide the pump pipe, plumbing fittings and the pole for the solar panels.  It is also a great idea to have a ground rod kit.  Now for the top of the well we do have either a cap or seal available for a 4, 5 or 6 inch casing. If you already have a cap all you would need to do is drill a hole through the top so your pump pipe will fit thru and use a hose clamp to secure it so it won’t fall through. You will also need a second hole drilled in the cap so that the wire can be run through as well. It's important to note that with an Advanced Power Inc. solar pump you don't want to attach the weather pac connector to the end of your pump wire until you have pulled the wire through your well cap.
The most important thing that we would need to know to be able to size the right solar system for our customers is the casing size, depth to the top of the water and if there is any more elevation above ground to where the water is being delivered. We will also need to know how much water is needed for your specific situation.  We have 2 different sizes of diameter in our solar pumps and knowing the casing size will help us to help you better select the proper pump for your exact pumping situation.

Please feel free to go to our website at www.solarpumps.com and view the installation video and examine our information on our products pages. If you have any questions as always feel free to give our friendly staff a call at 866-519-7892 or shoot us an email with your situation at sales@solarpumps.com.


Water just about anywhere, even way out there!
