Which Garden Kit Is Right for You?
Measure your sunniest spot first. A patio corner takes a single panel, a long lawn takes two, and a bigger plot can go bigger again. Every kit sends up to 800W (799VA) into your home, and every one shows Price TBC until prices are set.
Lawn, patio or a bigger plot?
Our three garden kits. The Big Garden Kit comes in two sizes, Plus and Max.
The Plus 1030W and Max 1260W have more than 960W of panels, so have a professional check your electrics before you plug one in. Plus or Max?
Prefer the adjustable stand?
The maker's hybrid stand, set up on the ground in your garden. Same plug-in rules, a different frame, and the ballast figure comes from the maker for your spot.

Add-ons that make it work in your garden
We don't sell add-ons yet. Here's what to sort out locally before your kit arrives:
- Concrete blocks. Dense blocks of at least 18kg each for the ground kits, from any builders' merchant. The hybrid stand uses the maker's figure for your spot.
- An outdoor socket. Weatherproof (IP55 or better), within 4m of the panels, with modern RCD protection. An electrician can fit one.
- Something under the frame. Gravel, bark or a few slabs keep things tidy and save you mowing underneath.
We're checking with the maker whether ground screws suit the frames. We'll only list them once the maker says yes.
