The Coleman Solar Charger CL-600 provides immediate charge when exposed to daylight, even on cloudy days. It charges your 12V RV, boat or truck batteries so you can run small appliances such as fluorescent lights, coolers, small TV's, or laptops.

Designed to protect against natural battery discharge and electronic drain in cars, recreational vehicles, SUVs, and trucks, the Coleman solar 1.5-watt 12-volt deep-cycle charger keeps the 12-volt batteries in the vehicle charged so you can run small appliances such as fluorescent lights, coolers, small TVs, or laptops. The solar charger provides an immediate charge when exposed to daylight, even on cloudy day. Illuminated LEDs lets you know the panel is charging, and mounting screws are included if you choose to fix the panel to the dashboard. Plug-in-play compatible for quick connections, a cigarette lighter adaptor and a battery clamp are also included with the panel. The charger is backed by a 2-year warranty.

Pleasantly Surprised

Reviewed by J. Peterson, 2010-02-12

Ok folks I will have to admit, this is one foreign made product that surprised me once it was in place. I store a portable welder in an area where there is no electricity. I had entertained the idea of running electricity to that shed for years, but saw this solar panel advertised at a reasonable price and thought 'what the heck'. The battery on my welder is old and I figured no way this thing is gonna keep it charged. Well I was wrong. Not only does the Coleman Solar Charger keep it charged, but it has a VERY strong charge and I haven't had those iritating booster cables out since I installed the charger. I plan to purchase one or two more of these to maintain my jet ski as well as boat.

My first solar panel - Quite good but not as specified

Reviewed by OSCAR, 2010-01-31

This is my first solar panel, as soon as i received it I wanted to verify the power it said it could generate by solar light, when I exposed it to day light its built in blue LED lighted and I checked the output voltage, it was more than 15VDC (open output), then I measured the shortcircuit current which indicates should be 600mA, I obtained almost 400mA, under a very sunny day. Quite good I think, I can use it to adapt to some small appliances's charger.

I ordered one Coleman panel to see how good it was. I am a long time Coleman collector and this fits just right! Brand power at its best! I have had it about 2 weeks and have it connected to my campers battery. The camper has a stereo system which requires a "hot" lead to maintain memory so this creates a drain on the battery. After this panel, no more worries about the drain! This panel in full sun is putting out 22.65volts and drops to 17.3 on a cloudy day, even when it was raining!I ordered two more and expect them to arrive tomorrow. I will build a frame to attach the panels to and hook all of them to my battery bank (3 D/C NG27). I expect to be able to use them for a generator (less) week of camping next month! If it fails then expect me to update this review! I think ICP could have had a better way of connecting multiple panels though. Coleman dosen't supply the gang plug, so I have to cut the plug ends off and hardwire them together. Not too much of an issue though.

Solar Panel For Boat Battery

Reviewed by John R. Bittner, 2009-09-12

I am still testing the merits of this purchase. I Bought it to keep my boat battery charged , since I use the boat infrequently. I may have needed to buy a larger panel to get more charging power...
Still in the tryout stage.
