Our TC01 is a unique, 12V DC or 24V DC, digital, LCD, 24-hour time clock. It is suitable for some of our solar lighting systems and power systems. As a 24-hour / 7-day timer, it has multiple timed settings for daily or weekly operation.
A 24-hour time clock is ideal for solar systems where the installer or user requires specific timed settings. This switch is designed for use with a low voltage (12V DC or 24V DC) solar energy system only and not for use with any other system or application. Because this is 24 hours 7-day timer it allows multiple different timed settings on a daily or weekly basis. It should be flexible enough to meet most requirements. It is easy to install and can be housing within the battery enclosure. There is a built-in lithium battery which provides reserve power in the event of supply loss and should retain all programming such as date, time and program modes. It can be attached to a surface with self-adhesive tape, or the module has pre-drilled mounting holes so it can be fixed using small screws or bolts. On the face of the timer there is an LCD digital screen and an LED to show the status of the internal relay (open = LED not lit, closed = LED lit). This compact timer is small and neat. Select either 12V DC or 24V DC version.

The solar panel must be installed in a location where it can receive full direct sunshine (when available) and set facing South at about a 45-60 degree angle (where adjustment options allow). The solar panel must not be installed in a shaded or part shaded location and never indoors. The standard specifications of the system (particularly the solar panel Wattage and battery capacity) may need to be adjusted. These components are determined by your geographic location, power consumption (LED Wattage) and the total amount of hours of illumination time required. Such changes to the standard specifications may increase or decrease the cost shown. Please contact us for more information or assistance. The illumination time is estimated and subject to various factors including (but not limited to) geographic location, seasons, temperature, weather conditions & location of product etc. The illumination time of most solar lights can reduce during winter months when the weather is poor and the days are shorter. During this time insolation hours decrease accordingly. Shorter illumination time due to one or more of the above factors does not define the product as being ‘defective’ or ‘not as described’. All solar lights must be used in a completely dark location at night time otherwise they may not illuminate. Nearby strong lighting sources or ambient lighting may affect the operation of a solar light. This does not define the product as being 'defective' or 'not as described'. Please note, if you do not install or use this product for several months the battery may discharge naturally on its own. By allowing a battery to deep discharge it may cause irreversible damage as the battery may then lose the ability to recharge or hold a full charge. Although unlikely, we reserve the right to supply this product with any minor alterations or minor changes to the specifications (shown above by text description or by photographs) due to different supplies or product batches received, incorporating such product changes made by the manufacturer, without further notice. Descriptions, specifications and photographs are updated regularly but may not be current when minor changes to a product have only recently been made.
