Description

The Plug’n’Free series is a silent revolution in off-grid living and beyond. Designed to eliminate the complexities and risks of DIY installation, it is believed to be the first system of its kind—making off-grid power simple, reliable, and virtually fail-proof.

Developed from 20 years of experience in off-grid systems, Plug’n’Free combines progressive engineering with exceptional craftsmanship in one refined, mature package. It represents a leap forward in solar technology: a fully self-contained, genuinely plug-and-play power system—“made in New Zealand.”

 

This is the first model in the Plug’n’Free series, designed for tiny homes with a 16A caravan power connection. Ideal for the small budget or site offices with intermitted power demand of up to 4kW.

Keep potential fire hazards safely away from your home or worksite. Connected with a standard power cord, these plug-and-play systems are ready to use within seconds. They can be placed directly on the ground or used as solar trailers when properly secured for transport. This eliminates the need for a WOF and can significantly reduce installation costs.

The system is built with high-quality, heavy-duty components. Its simplicity is not amateurish—it is intentional. Beyond the technology itself, all components are locally sourced and intelligently packaged, with a proven track record spanning more than five years.

Most owners of an off-grid system have been faced with several issues and trouble before they achieved something that works. You need to identify a suitable area, selecting components and set it up. Then there is an electrician required to make the sockets and switchboards. This is not done in an evening and have driven many off-gridders nuts and made them poor. Non of this should cause your headaches anymore because this  system arrives ready to connect—simply plug it in and start using it.
