tp-link VIGI Solar Kit SP6020 60W 20Ah 4MP Outdoor Full-Colour 4G PT Network Camera
This TP-Link VIGI solar kit is a fully off-grid 4G surveillance solution: the VIGI C540-4G 4MP full-colour pan-tilt camera paired with the VIGI SP6020 intelligent solar power system (a 60 W solar panel and a 20.8 Ah lithium battery). It needs no mains power and no fixed internet — the camera runs on solar and connects over the 4G mobile network using your own SIM, so it suits farms, building sites, remote gates and any spot beyond reach of power and Wi-Fi. The camera pans and tilts for 360° coverage with auto-tracking, records in full colour, and has two-way audio with active deterrence.

§ 01Overview
What the VIGI SP6020-4GC_4MP_PT_camera_C540-4G is
This TP-Link VIGI solar kit is built for places where you cannot run power or a network cable — a farm gate, a paddock, a construction site, a remote shed or a rural driveway.
It combines the VIGI C540-4G 4MP full-colour 4G pan-tilt camera with the VIGI SP6020 intelligent solar power system, so the whole site runs off sunlight and connects over the 4G mobile network using your own SIM card.
There is no NVR and no mains power required.
The SP6020 supplies a 60 W photovoltaic panel and a 20.8 Ah / 10.8 V lithium battery with a built-in MPPT charge controller that lifts charging efficiency by around 20%.
On a sunny day it reaches a full on-load charge in about 1.8 days, and once charged it can keep the camera running for up to about 4.3 days of consecutive overcast weather — actual figures vary with season, location, panel angle and how busy the camera is.
Intelligent auxiliary heating keeps the battery charging and discharging reliably from about -30°C to 60°C, the panel angle adjusts across six positions, and the system carries an IP66 rating for outdoor exposure.
The C540-4G itself is a 4MP full-colour camera that pans and tilts for full 360° coverage and can automatically track a person or vehicle of interest.
It records in full colour with a built-in spotlight, classifies people and vehicles for accurate alerts, and has two-way audio plus active defence with a siren and strobe to warn intruders off.
Footage is kept on a microSD card (up to 256 GB, not included) and viewed remotely through the VIGI app.
Note that 4G connectivity needs a Nano SIM with a data plan, which is not included.
The kit is genuine stock with a local 3-year warranty and support.
