Not every site requirement calls for a full CCTV tower. Quantum's solar-powered sledges deliver the same mains-free, off-grid power philosophy in a smaller, trailer-mounted footprint — ideal for site lighting, welfare units, signage, or low-draw equipment that needs reliable renewable power without the scale of a full surveillance tower.
A solar sledge is a compact renewable power unit, built on the same solar and lithium technology as our CCTV towers but sized and specified for smaller power demands. Instead of supporting a full mast, camera array and detection suite, it's designed to power site lighting, welfare cabins, signage, telemetry equipment, or other low-draw devices.
Anywhere a site needs dependable, mains-free power without justifying the cost or footprint of a full tower deployment, a sledge fills that gap — right-sized for the job rather than a scaled-down version of something bigger.
Every sledge is specified around proportionate power, easy repositioning and zero reliance on mains or diesel.
Where a full CCTV tower is oversized for the requirement, a solar sledge provides proportionate power capacity — lower cost, smaller footprint, faster to move and reposition.
Like the rest of the Quantum fleet, sledges are entirely self-contained and solar-charged, avoiding the cost and delay of a mains electrical connection.
The trailer-mounted design makes sledges straightforward to move around an active site as work progresses, without the crane or specialist lifting equipment a full tower might require.
Keeps welfare units, task lighting and low-draw equipment running through the working day and beyond, supporting compliance with site welfare requirements.
Sledges work well alongside solar CCTV towers on larger sites — towers handling surveillance, sledges handling supplementary lighting or welfare power — all managed as part of the same renewable power strategy.
Right-sized from the first conversation, supported in-house throughout.
We identify what needs powering — lighting, welfare, signage, low-draw equipment — and the expected daily usage.
Our team confirms the appropriate solar sledge specification for the load, avoiding both under- and over-specifying the equipment.
The unit is delivered and positioned on site, ready to connect to the equipment it's powering.
As with every Quantum deployment, technical support is available in-house throughout the hire or ownership period.
Quantum built its reputation on solar and lithium engineering for CCTV towers, and that same expertise scales down effectively into a lighter, more affordable power unit. Choosing the right-sized unit for the job — rather than always defaulting to a full tower — is part of how we help clients control costs without compromising reliability. Every unit is backed by the same in-house support and nationwide delivery as the rest of our fleet.
Tell us what needs powering on site and we'll recommend the right unit for the job.
