Pelco VS-L6Q-40WSP Solar Panel Only
Overview
The VS-L6Q-40WSP is a 40-watt solar panel module purpose-built to power the Pelco L6Q license plate recognition (LPR) camera system in off-grid or remote deployment scenarios. This accessory eliminates AC/DC infrastructure requirements and enables the L6Q to operate independently from utility power, making it the essential component when you need rapid deployment at parking lots, toll gates, or access control points where electrical service is unavailable or cost-prohibitive to extend. The IP67 rating ensures the panel survives rain, snow, and temperature extremes without degradation.
Compatibility
The VS-L6Q-40WSP is engineered exclusively for the Pelco L6Q quick-deploy license plate reader. It integrates with the L6Q's internal battery system and power management electronics; it is not compatible with other Pelco camera lines or third-party LPR platforms. Install this solar module only on L6Q systems configured for solar-plus-battery operation.
Installation Notes
The panel mounts via the included bracket to pole or rack structures using band straps. Orient the panel toward true south (northern hemisphere) at a tilt matching your latitude for maximum charging efficiency year-round. Verify the L6Q's internal 12Ah battery is installed before connecting the solar module—the system requires both components to charge and store power. The panel outputs 12V DC; no field wiring modifications are needed if the L6Q is pre-wired for solar input. In winter months or high-latitude installations, confirm daily charge cycles exceed nighttime drain (consult Pelco sizing guides for your location's daylight hours and camera uptime requirements).
