New to solar?

The panel charges a battery, and the battery runs the dock.

We size the whole system by what you want to run.

How solar works

Boat Lifts

Two ways to run your lift on the sun.

Most people call about the lift first. Either plug it into a solar-powered outlet and leave the lift exactly as it is, or swap its whole power system for a solar-charged 24-volt one. Both mean no shore power and no wires trenched down to the water.

from$5,000Installed · pick a size below

We mount a weatherproof 120-volt outlet right at the lift, powered by panels, a lithium battery, and an inverter in a locked enclosure. Plug the lift's cord in and it works exactly like it always has.

The 120-volt blower and control pedestal come off. In their place goes a solar-charged 24-volt system with its own lockable control box, so there is no high voltage anywhere near the water.

Extra outlets
Need more than one? Add outlets to any size for $600 each, installed and switched on its own in the app.

Use estimates are rough, for typical summer sun on Smith Lake: the lift trips plus one other thing at a time, assuming a big high-velocity floor fan and counting the inverter's own draw. The panels recharge the battery every day, and the app always shows your real battery level.

Solar 12-Volt Systems

Lights, fishing light, fridge, pump. All on 12 volts.

Low-voltage power straight from the battery, too low to shock anyone. We supply the 12-volt appliances, run the wiring in conduit to each one, and put every one of them on its own switch in the app. It runs dock gear, not household appliances: for a boat lift, a box fan, or anything with a normal plug, you want a 120-volt outlet above. Three ready-made systems below, or add any appliance to any system.

Up to seven switched appliances per system. String lights count as one, whatever the length. Bigger appliance lists get the bigger panel and battery; the finder sizes it for you.
