Brownout-resistant security
The panel keeps the doorbell battery topped up, so short outages and cloudy stretches are less likely to leave it drained. App alerts still need Wi-Fi and router power.
USE · 03

FAQ
Common questions.
Will it work in the rainy season? +
Yes. Even on overcast Manila days, you get enough trickle-charge to maintain the battery. We've had setups go through full typhoon weeks without dropping below 80%.
Where should I mount it? +
On the wall above or next to your doorbell, facing the strongest sun (usually east-facing wall for morning sun, or west for afternoon). 2-3 hours of direct sun per day is plenty.
Does it replace the doorbell battery? +
No — it tops up the existing internal battery. The doorbell still has its own battery for recording at night and during cloudy stretches.
Will the cable look ugly? +
It's a thin black cable that runs along the wall. Most Filipino front-gate setups already have wires; this blends in.
