Engineered for high performance, the Sunflower station is equipped with 100 W photovoltaic panels that power a sophisticated internal system. Depending on user requirements, the station can be configured with either 36 Ah gel batteries or 40 Ah lithium batteries, ensuring reliable energy storage. The core functionality includes one 10 W wireless inductive charger, alongside two USB-A 3.0 and one USB-C 3.0 quick-charge ports, facilitating the rapid charging of mobile devices. For enhanced connectivity, the station can be outfitted with a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi hotspot capable of supporting 3G/4G networks, effectively turning this piece of street furniture into a hub of digital activity. Operational stability is maintained across a wide temperature range, from -20°C to 60°C.
Beyond its primary charging functions, the Sunflower station prioritizes accessibility and user comfort. The design features integrated neutral white LED ambient lighting (4.8 W), increasing safety and usability during evening hours. Flexibility in installation is provided through a bolt-down method to a concrete foundation, ensuring structural integrity. Customization options extend to an optional bicycle rack, which can be mounted on either the left or right side, and the ability to mill a custom logo directly into the HPL surface. This product is a prime example of sustainable urban furniture that empowers citizens through green energy while offering a refined architectural presence.
