Kenya’s Sun King debuts advanced HomePlus Max solar home system

Kenyan solar provider Sun King has launched the HomePlus Max solar home system, featuring advanced capabilities and improved battery technology.

Sun King is the world’s largest off-grid solar energy company with cutting-edge product design, affordable financing, and a grassroots installation model to provide energy to the 1.8 billion people across Africa and Asia who lack access to reliable electricity. 

Since its inception, Sun King has sold over 30 million solar products, and its new solar home system draws on its experience in the global off-grid solar sector to provide an inexpensive and reliable solar power solution for homes and small businesses. 

The HomePlus Max offers more light, power, faster charging, and more features than any of Sun King’s previous solar home systems, including USB-C charging for laptops and other common battery-powered devices.

It illuminates up to four rooms as brightly as a modern, grid-powered home; powers DC appliances like Sun King’s new 43” HD TV, pedestal fan, and radio; offers fast charging for smartphones, laptops, and other devices; comes with a security light that detects motion up to seven metres away; and charges its battery using both its roof-mountable solar panel and grid electricity.

“The HomePlus Max redefines what a solar home system can deliver. It offers bright modern lighting, fast charging for multiple phones, and laptop charging capability, all while powering the Sun King TV or pedestal fan. The Homeplus Max sets a new benchmark for affordable, reliable solar energy,” said T. Patrick Walsh, CEO and co-founder of Sun King.
