Where will you put yours? What might you discover? Could it change the world?

External Power Pack

The Base Station requires an external 12 volt power source. This can be a 12 volt lead-acid or lithium-ion battery.

With so many potential power pack variables, a single one-size-fits-all solution has not been developed. When ordering a system, the Instant Detect 2.0 team will advise the best external power pack solution depending on the deployments requirements.

Covert Deployments

For covert deployments the Base Station can use a waterproof (IP67) battery pack buried alongside it.

Portable

In testing, a portable 12kg lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) 100Ah battery powered the Base Station for 5 weeks when transmitting 120 images a day with minimal sleep periods to achieve the fastest transmissions.

Solar

A solar charged battery pack can keep the Base Station running indefinitely. In testing, a Base Station ran continuously for 7 months using a solar charged battery.
