Works perfectly
Works great. Cameras are back to 100% every day. Make sure there is maximum sunlight in the position its places such as a tree shadow in the morning/arvo. Makes the cameras hassle free apart from the se card being full but that isnt a solar panel issue

At a glance
This 2.5W solar panel is a handy add-on for compatible Uniden wire-free security cameras, helping maintain battery charge using sunlight. It suits homeowners wanting a simpler outdoor setup without running power cables. Key strengths are its weatherproof build, flexible 360 degree mount and easy DIY installation. The main limitation is that charging performance depends heavily on sunlight and camera activity.
What it’s great for
- Wire-free camera charging
- Outdoor home security setups
- Reducing manual recharging
- DIY camera accessory upgrades
Where it works best
- Sunny outdoor walls
- Home entrances
- Garages
- Backyards
- Side access areas
Who it’s for
- Homeowners
- Renters with compatible cameras
- DIY home security users
- Users wanting fewer manual recharges
Things to consider
Its 2.5W output is practical for maintaining charge on compatible cameras, but it is less suitable than higher-output solar accessories for shaded locations, heavy camera usage or consistently low-sun conditions.
System compatibility assessment
Best suited to compatible Uniden App Cam SOLO X and Solo+ range security cameras; not a universal solar panel for all camera brands or models.
Ease of installation rating
9/10 - simple accessory setup with DIY-friendly mounting and no need to run mains power.
Home size suitability
Suitable for small to large homes using compatible Uniden wire-free cameras, especially where cameras are mounted in sunny outdoor positions.
Weather resistance score
8/10 - weatherproof construction suits outdoor use, but charging still depends on sunlight exposure and conditions.
Key benefits
- 2.5W Solar Output: Helps maintain battery charge during daylight hours for compatible Uniden cameras.
- Weatherproof Design: Built for outdoor installation so it can stay mounted in exposed home security locations.
- 360 Degree Wall Mount: Makes it easier to angle the panel toward the sun for better placement flexibility.
- DIY Installation: Offers a straightforward way to add solar charging without running fixed power lines.
- Wire-Free Camera Support: Pairs well with battery-powered camera setups where convenient charging matters.
- Black Finish: Blends more discreetly with many outdoor camera placements and darker exterior surfaces.
- Daylight Charging Support: Can reduce how often you need to remove and recharge the camera battery manually.
- Accessory for Compatible Uniden Cameras: Designed to work as a dedicated power accessory within the Uniden App Cam Solo range.
Q: Which Uniden cameras does the SPS-01 solar panel fit?
A: The SPS-01 is designed for compatible Uniden App Cam SOLO range cameras, including SOLO X models named on this page. It is not a universal solar panel, so do not assume it will suit other Uniden camera ranges or non-Uniden models.
Q: Will this keep a SOLO camera charged all year round?
A: No. This panel helps maintain battery charge during daylight, but it does not guarantee a continuous full charge in every setup. Charging depends on available sun and how often the camera records, streams or sends alerts.
Q: How well does it charge in shade or cloudy weather?
A: Charging will drop in shade, winter sun or extended cloudy weather. The panel works best when mounted in direct sunlight, so it is less suited to spots under deep eaves, dense tree cover or walls that stay shaded for most of the day.
Q: Can this replace manually charging the camera battery indoors?
A: It can reduce how often a compatible camera needs to be taken down for charging, but it is not the same as wired mains power. In low-sun locations or during heavier camera activity, the battery may still need manual top-ups.
Q: Does the solar panel include a mount for sun positioning?
A: Yes. The Uniden SPS-01 includes a 360 degree wall mount, which makes it easier to angle the panel toward available sunlight. That flexibility helps with placement, but it cannot make up for a location that gets very little direct sun.
Q: Is the SPS-01 suitable for permanent outdoor mounting?
A: Yes. The SPS-01 has weatherproof construction for outdoor installation with compatible cameras. Weatherproofing helps it handle normal outdoor exposure, but charging performance still depends on placement, daylight hours and camera activity.
