An “Iron Man Suit” for IoT—effortlessly upgraded into true Ambient IoT.

The Ideal Energy Harvesting Solution for AIoT

Arc-solar Box is an enclosure-integrated energy harvester with RoHS certification and IP67 rating designed for LPWAN/4G LTE IoTs. It has no angle limitations, allowing it to collect scattered light in a highly-efficient manner. On a sunny day, the solar energy we provide is greater than that provided by an AAA battery.

Like Iron Man’s iconic Arc Reactor, FLEXWAVE’s Arc-solar serves as the power core for modern IoT devices. With a 10-year lifespan, it offers companies a battery-free, maintenance-saving, and highly economical path forward—allowing IoT devices to effortlessly upgrade into Ambient IoT, unlocking a new generation of sustainable, self-powered smart systems.

High-performance

By employing the well-designed max. power point tracking (MPPT)  power manager, >40% more photon energy can be transferred into electricity.

UV Resistant & Waterproof

Using durable PC materials and FLEXWAVE’s patented waveguide encapsulation, Arc-solar box is capable of protection against UV rays and is waterproof. It will not yellow after being at outside for an extended period.

10-year Lifespan

With a lifespan of up to ten years, Arc-solar box sustainably provides solar energy harvesting for uninterrupted data collection.

Battery-free

Due to the optimized design, Arc-solar box is available as a self-powered device via its rechargeable battery. No maintenance fees required.

Plug & Play

All accessories needed for solar energy harvesting are provided. Just Plug & Play!
