Residential Solar Power Station
The additional expense to purchase a DART unit is recovered quickly as the Return-On-Investment (ROI) is over 25% per year with the additional energy generated by a DART unit, we only sell high quality 600W~720W solar panels !
Dual Axis-solar Radiation Trackers (DART's) are Stare-of-Art, and provide Superior Energy Generation than ANY other Solar Racking type ! |

DART-1 Narrow Chassis. |
This DART-1 Solar Tracker will Generate 7kWh/p Energy in 10 hours of full sunlight when fitted with 1x 700W Solar Panel.
We Only sell Radiation Tracking that Automatically turns the Racking to face the Brightest area of the Sky, Generating substantially more Energy, in fact a Radiation Tracked will Generate 60% more Energy that any Fixed Tilted Solar Racking over 12 months.
We Stopper using GPS Tracking due to inherent problems associated with difficult programming & GPS Tracking on Cloudy days becomes inefficient as the Racking remains Pointed to where the Sun is behind Clouds !
We are now manufacturing bespoke Mobile DART Solar Power Stations mounted in a Box Trailer, ideal for Tenants that Rent or Lease or use on Work Sites or for Functions, as they can be relocate to there next abode or used as a Mobile Power Station.
This DART-1 unit has been converted into a Mobile DART-3 Power Station.
What is required for a Transportable Mobile DART Power Station ?

Wide Stand DART-4 Unit. |
DART-4, 4 Panel Solar Tracking Unit Daily Generation;
- 22kWh/p per Day fitted with 4x 500W panels.
- 28kWh/p per Day fitted with 4x 700W panels.
Click here to see the NEW Double Slew DART-4 Design option, the Racking Ground Clearance can be from 30cm~300cm.
A DART-4 unit Generates enough Energy for Medium/Large Residential home daily energy consumption !
A DART-4 or DART-8 unit is better suited for small Urban Yards. |

Wide Stand DART-8 Unit. |
DART-8, 8 Panel Solar Tracking Unit Daily Generation;
- 44kWh/p per Day fitted with 8x 500W panels.
- 56kWh/p per Day fitted with 8x 700W panels.
A DART-8 Unit supplies enough Daily Energy for a large Residential or Semi-Commerecial Energy Consumption.
This size DART unit is more suited to Semi-Rural locations, as a little large for most small Urban Yards. |
In Town or Urban locations we don't recommend installing anything larger than a DART-8 Unit, as the racking is approx. 500cm x 500cm & some Neighbours have nothing better to do that Wing to Council.
As Australia is in a solar "hot zones", a single DART-4 Unit fitted with 4x 500W Panels shown above, Generates 22kWh of solar energy per Day. That will cover the energy consumption of a premises with a energy bill of $350, &/or may Generate enough energy to cover the cost to pay the over inflated "service fee" to remain State Grid connected.
People Renting a Town House or Business: Can Invest in a unique Trailer mounted DART Power Station, that is easily be relocated from one location to the next.
Mobile Solar Generator Power Stations: We only offer Two Unique Solar Generators that can Power a whole House or Business !
- 6kw Inverter & 5.12kWh Battery Unit Costs *$3,510, is the easiest Micro Grid to Install, and can be Charged by Solar, Wind Turbine, Vehicle or fuel Generator, additional 5.12kWh Batteries can be added.
- 11kW Single Phase or 12kw Three Phase Inverter & 7.68kWh Battery Unit Costs *$4'735, and can be Charged by Solar, Wind Turbine, Vehicle or fuel Generator, additional 11.77kWh Batteries can be added.
Use this page to calculate a system matched to You energy consumption, so go get your energy bill.
See How to Installing Dual Axis-solar Radiation Trackers (DART), using a 24V Double Slew Bearing, we are transitioning away from Linear actuator as they commonly have a 10+ year Failure rate.
NB: When it comes to Solar Panels, our 720W Bi-facial, Double Glazed Solar Panels Generate up to 20% additional energy from Reflective light on the Rear, the additional Generation is ongoing for the next 25+ years!
That is why we only offer DART (we are currently designing residential roof-top SAT), as both DART & SAT are simply the best at Generation solar energy, if you live in Town & looking to install DART you may need ask what the local council requirements are, this changes from state to state.
If you already have a Solar array that's paid-off, you are in the best situation, as it only Costs $2,800 for 15.36kWh LiFePO4 Battery, that commonly only take 1 year to recoupe the costs, as you will Not need to Purchase Power back after Sunset, based on self consumption, as all energy not consumed by your premises during the day is sent to your batteries & once fully charged, only then will excess energy be exported into the state grid, where the a measly feed-in rebate may cover the Electricity Retailer "Supply Charges", then the grid is only used to black-out proof your premises.
The reason most people purchase a larger than needed solar array, was to Generate enough kWh energy to offset/lower their energy bills. If you already have solar panels, it's a far smarter investment to purchase Batteries, you can calculate the saving here in under 1 year by purchasing just Batteries !
System Pay-back time is discussed here in more detail, and will give you a good understanding of the potential payback period.
Dual-axis trackers capture the full extent of the sun, but are more complex and hence more expensive, DART make more of a difference the futher south you live, where there is substantial seasonal variation in the sun’s height and arc in the sky.
As a guideline to different installation of 8x 720W solar panels (5.76kWh) will generate the following;
- Fixed Flat panes (No Tilt) Harvests 18kWh day peak.
- Fixed Tilted panes @34° Tilt Harvests 23kWh day peak.
- Single-axis Tracking Harvests 35kWh day peak.
- Dual Axis-solar Radiation Tracking Harvests 57kWh day peak.
Note that Flat-panel installations are only able to Generate Peak energy for approx. 1.5 hours per day depending on the time of the year and location from the equator, where Single-axis tracking is more efficient, and Dual-axis Radiation Tracking (DART) will Generate energy for 10hr per day, the further south you are located the better.
DART Units provide the Quickest Return-on-Investment (ROI), the system will then provide an ongoing income for well over 25 years, obviously Energy Storage is a key part of the system !
A DART system requires a Hybrid inverter, that allows you control every aspect of your energy Generation and Distribution, LUX hybrid Inverters allow Generator input, and also allows Battery charge management that can be programmed to automatic start or shut-down as required !
Old Solar Rebate:
In November 2016 the $0.40~$0.60 per kWh Solar feed-in Tariff ended in Australia, hopefully your Solar array has already paid for itself in reduced energy costs and feed-in Tariff/Rebate.
Now, the quickest way to become energy independent, is to purchase Dual-axis Solar Array and Battery bank to store your energy, that in turn allows you to Generate & stored your energy for after hours Consumption. If you don't have a battery bank, you are on the loosing end of the deceptive Electricity Retailer charges, as after hours you are forced to pay over 300% more than the 8c kWh feed-in Tariff form the rip-off electricity Retailers, for energy you consume after sunset !
Investing in a 15.36kWh LiFePO4 battery cost approx. *$2,800, is a lot smarter than paying 30cents kWh for Power after Sunset !
