SolarX 

A customer needed solar-powered portable HVAC units for off-grid deployment at festivals and emergency sites. No drawings. No manufacturer.

 

Several shops had already turned them down.

We said yes.

The finished unit — 24,000 BTU, powder coated aluminum enclosure, fully portable on casters. Designed and built entirely in-house.

The enclosure fabricated in aluminum before powder coating. Curved forms, precision ventilation cutouts, all designed from scratch with no existing drawings.

48VDC system with internal inverter, dedicated battery modules, and solar charge controllers — all engineered and integrated in-house.

What This Project Required

  • Full product design from concept brief

  • Aluminum enclosure fabrication

  • 48VDC power systems engineering

  • Solar charge controller integration

  • Prototype and small-batch production

We built a proof of concept unit first, validated the design, then produced four working prototypes. The units were deployed at multiple festivals and live events and haven't experienced a single failure.


If you have a project other shops won't touch — call us. (843) 647-6443
