Drop in and Start Using

Jupiter is pre-wired with all the inputs and outputs on the case.

On the front panel are the power inputs and outputs with 5inch touch screen .

The GPO’s are ready to go as well as the 240V power in.

A certificate of compliance is issued so there is no need for an authorised electrcian at installation. We have taken care of that inside the case.

What's new in Series II

The digital switching is upgraded to STAR-Light V2 with 12 channels of 10A switchable outputs .

Integration of the new Solid State Lithium batteries gives a screen view of the cell min/max and number of batteries on line and number of batteries charging/ discharging. Solid State Lithium is the safest lithium available. The Batteries are not included and are an optional extra.

The Victron Display shows the details of the batteries as they are compliant and compatible with Victron. You cant see this display with non-compliant lithium batteries.

4WD becomes Power Station for Caravan

Run the caravan from the 4WD as if you are on a powered site.

The length of time that you can operate for depends on the power load of the caravan and length of time. In our experience, here are typical times:
With 4 x Solid State in 4WD (850ah at 12V equiv) but generally 48V:

  • Aircon – 8 hours
  • All electric Kitchen – for 3-4 days

Safest Lithium Batteries Available with 10,000 Cycle Life

This battery will disrupt the lithium business because of it’s incredible safety and long cycle life of 10,000cycles.

It may well be that insurer’s will insist on this technology in the future as it significantly lessens their risk.

Safiery have fitted the same Victron and Marine compliant BMS that shows min/max cell voltages and temperature.

This is THE Ultimate in Lithium batteries.

How Solid State is different to standard lithium

The traditional liquid lithium battery is called a ‘rocking chair battery’ by the scientific community because of its charging and discharging principle. The two ends of the rocking chair are the positive and negative poles of the battery, and the middle is the liquid electrolyte. Lithium electrons move back and forth across the two ends of the rocking chair and complete the charge and discharge of the battery during the process. In this process, there are many safety hazards: if there is overcharging, the battery is prone to heat, causing the electrolyte to swell, decompose, spontaneously ignite or even explode. The charging and discharging principle of a solid-state battery is the same as that of a liquid battery. The only difference is that its electrolyte is solid, which has many advantages over liquid electrolytes:

1) Higher Safety: The liquid electrolyte in traditional batteries creates safety hazards if over charging or electrical abuse. The result is thermal runaway and fire. Solid-state batteries have higher safety without this electroyte mass.

2) Higher Cycle Life: Because solid-state batteries use solid electrolytes, the cycle life is doubled. A minimum of 10,000 cycles at 80% depth of discharge is expected.

3) High energy density: As solid-state batteries use solid electrolytes, they do not need to use lithium-intercalated graphite anodes, but directly use metal lithium as the anode, which can reduce the amount of anode materials and increase the energy density of the entire battery.

4) Smaller size: The separator and electrolyte in the traditional liquid lithium battery account for nearly 25% of the entire battery mass. With the solid electrolyte, the distance between the positive and negative electrodes can be shortened to ten micrometers. The result is smaller battery dimensions and better quality control.

5) Lower temperature Range: Solid State Lithium is less affected by freezing temperatures because of the solid layers.

6) High Discharge rate:Solid State Batteries can discharge up to 10C. However, the BMS current rating limits discharge rates to 1C Continuous and 2C for 10 secs.

STAR-Light Digital Switching

See the suggested list in the image on the right.

The Dual colour channels can be controlled by a single button.

For example the Work Light Driver and Passenger can be controlled with a single button: “Work Lights”.
Press for Passenger side, Double Press for Drivers side, Press again for both to come on.

This way, 12 outputs can be controlled by a single 8 button keypad.

Choice of 4 different keypads

Included in Jupiter Pack is the rubberised 8 button keypad. It has such a nice traditional button press but your fingers can be grimy or dripping inoil ad they clean up easily.

As an option to add are the choice of Engravable CAN or Battery operated long range bluetooth for the drivers side Or our new interchangeable icon keypad (optional extra)

STAR Range of Powerful SWITCHING -yet so SIMPLE to Use

Customers wanted a digital switching system that is so easy to install. Everyone wanted to operate only with switches, others touch screens and then others to use a phone app. Safiery have all these forms of control. The simplicity is that all these communication paths go directly to the STAR controller. This reduces the cost to make STAR Range around half the cost per output to the published retail price of Redarc equialent.

Tank Measurement made easy with Optional STAR-Tank (not included in Jupiter Packs)

Tank measurement can be so troublesome. If you have a jack-off canopy, then even more so. This is why we developed a bluetooth battery operated radar tank level sensor.
It communicates directly with Victron Cerbo or if you dont have a Victron System then see it on the STAR-Touch 7 inch Display when you combin with STAR-Power.
