All about Balcony Kits
Not all balconies are alike, that’s why we have different kinds of Balcony Kits available. The first difference is the power output of the kits. EU regulations allow kits up to 800 W output to be exempt from many norms and registration requirements. Our Balcony Kits stay within this requirement. Kits with one panel are of 300 or 400 W output, depending on the type of panel they use. Kits of two panels are of 600 or 800 W output.
For balconies, we offer kits with two types of panels. Our Robinsun Light - 300 W and 600 W use lightweight, flexible panels that are extremely easy to mount. We recommend those if you want to mount your kit alone, or install it anywhere higher than the first floor, especially if there is pedestrian traffic under your kit installation. This is for safety reasons.
For balconies on ground or first floors, or with no pedestrian traffic under them, we offer Balcony Kits with conventional panels, that perform better in terms of output, but are heavier. We have two types of mount. Our Balcony 90º - 400 W and Balcony 90º - 800 W kits come with a 90 degree angle mount, while our Balcony 60º- 400 W and Balcony 60º - 800 W kits have a triangular mount that give these Balcony Kits a 60 degree angle. At 60 degrees your Balcony Kit produces slightly more electricity throughout the year.

Who installs my kit?
In short: you.
Our plug & play solar kits are meant to be self-installed. You do not need an installer nor electrician, saving you a lot of time, money and peace of mind. Each kit comes with simple and clear installation instructions. We also offer plenty of tutorial videos on our Youtube channel that show you how to set up your kit.
You will need a few standard tools, like a wrench or screwdriver, as per the installation instructions that come with your kit. If you have ever set up a simple piece of furniture, and plugged in a microwave or coffee maker, you most certainly will manage to install a plug & play solar kit easily.
What orientation is optimal for a plug & play solar kit?
In short: south facing, with a 30 degrees inclination.
Plug & play solar kits generate electricity by exposing solar panels to solar radiation. The longer you expose the panel to direct sunshine, the more electricity it produces.
The panel's orientation (or azimuth) also directly affects the amount of sun exposure the panel receives. In the northern hemisphere:
- A southern orientation will give you the longest sunshine exposure during the day, making your kit produce the most amount of electricity.
- An eastern orientation will generate power earlier in the mornings, but stop at lunchtime.
- A western orientation will not start until lunchtime, but will last until the end of the day.
Other factors influencing the amount of electricity your Plug & Play Solar Kit produces are:
- The inclination (or slope) of the panels. In Europe a 30-35 degree inclination is generally best at capturing solar radiation.
- An eternal temperature of 25 degrees Celsius is the ideal production temperature for solar panels, although the panels can operate even at extreme temperatures between -40 and +85 degrees Celsius, just producing less efficiently.
- The amount of sunshine hours is also key. The presence of clouds or shade can reduce electricity production, but do not eliminate it. Even on a cloudy day your solar kit will produce for you.
