Dock Edge Starlite Solar Capacitor Series - Model 108

The Dock Edge Starlite Solar Capacitor Series Model 108 is a compact, high-efficiency solar navigation light engineered for boats, docks, and marine installations where reliable nighttime visibility matters. Unlike conventional solar lights that struggle on cloudy days or when charging time is limited, this model uses an integrated capacitor to store energy more efficiently, delivering consistent output across varying light conditions.

The capacitor-based energy storage system charges a rechargeable battery and acts as a secondary power reserve, allowing the light to produce brightness that often exceeds what its charging cycle alone would suggest. This dual-storage approach means longer operational time per charge and more reliable illumination during extended periods of low sunlight—critical for vessels spending time in variable weather or moored in shaded slip areas. Weighing just 0.6 pounds with compact 4 x 1 x 4 inch dimensions, the Model 108 fits tight mounting spaces without sacrificing output or durability.

This light is ideal for weekend anglers and serious boaters who need dependable courtesy lighting without running shore power or depleting battery reserves. Dock edge installations, cabin roof mounts, rail posts, and safety marker applications all benefit from its self-contained operation and minimal maintenance. The sealed solar panel and weatherproofed construction handle salt-air exposure and constant moisture typical of marine environments.

Solar navigation lights in the capacitor class represent the evolution beyond basic LED solar lights—they trade bulk for intelligence. By storing energy in both a capacitor and battery, this design maintains performance where older designs dim significantly. The Starlite Series positions itself as a premium option for boaters who value form, function, and consistent nighttime visibility across all seasons.
