Most solar surveillance trailers can operate 2–10 days without sunlight, depending on battery capacity and the power draw of the cameras and communication equipment.
Key Factors That Affect Runtime:-
Battery size: Larger battery banks provide longer autonomy.
-
Power usage: PTZ cameras, lights, and cellular transmitters consume more energy.
-
Weather: Cold temperatures can reduce battery efficiency.
-
Backup systems: Some trailers include generators or hybrid power to extend runtime.
In typical conditions, a trailer stays fully functional through several cloudy days without any sunlight.
