The table and map illustrate the
maximum number of gate cycles to
expect per day in a particular area
when using from 5 to 30 watts of
solar charging power. (see accessory
pages in back of this book). The
figures shown are for winter
(minimum sunlight) and do not account for the use of
any accessory items. Accessories connected to your
system will draw additional power from the battery.
NOTE: A minimum of 5 watts of solar charging power
is required for Mighty Mule 500 single gate systems, with
a maximum of 30 watts. A second battery (7 amp tractor,
auto or deep cycle marine battery) can be used for solar
and/or high traffic applications, if needed. Consult
Solar Panel Installation Instructions for further information.
