Rock_in_WA 0 Posted October 15, 2015 Hi Everyone, I'm trying to set up my HIKvision camera ( DS-2CD2132F-IWS ) for Solar power and had a couple of questions about how to wire things up. I'm planning to use a Renology 100 watt solar panel paired with their 30Amp charge controller to charge a UPG 35 Ah (85980/D5722) battery. The things I'm unclear on is where to find an appropriate power lead to connect the camera to the battery ? ( neither HIKvision or Renology seem to sell any ) And wether I would need any kind of a voltage regulator or fuse to protect the Camera from any possible damage due to power fluctuations by the battery ? I'm considering buying a second AC/DC adapter for the camera cutting off the wire from it & using that to connect to the battery but that seems really cheesy. Also wanted to ask if anyone might know the dimensions of the power plug for the DS-2CD2132F-IWS ? I'm thinking that it is probably the "standard" 5.5 x 2.1 MM, but that's just a quess. Any advice on these questions would be most appreciated. Thanks, Rock_in_WA Modify message Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
