PHYSICAL SECURITY

Solar Security Cameras for Utah — No Power Outlet. No Internet. No Problem.

The Turing SolarShield MAX puts AI-powered security cameras anywhere on your property — construction sites, remote lots, parking areas, outbuildings — without running conduit, trenching power lines, or installing internet infrastructure.

The biggest barrier to securing remote areas of your property isn’t cost — it’s infrastructure. Running conduit to a back parking lot costs thousands. Trenching power to a job site is a project in itself. Installing internet at a temporary location makes no sense for a 90-day deployment.

The Turing SolarShield MAX solves all of it: dual 175W solar panels charge dual 100Ah lithium batteries, a built-in 4G LTE router connects to AT&T, Verizon, or T-Mobile, and the whole system is managed through the same Turing Vision cloud platform as any wired Turing camera — one dashboard for everything.

The Utah Winter Problem — And Why It Matters for Solar Cameras

Utah’s climate creates specific challenges for solar-powered security cameras that most out-of-state vendors don’t fully address. Salt Lake Valley winters regularly include extended inversion periods — days of overcast skies, reduced sunlight, and cold temperatures. Northern Utah can see sub-zero nights. Mountain valley locations have shorter winter daylight windows.

Who Needs Solar Cameras in Utah — And Why

The businesses that call us about solar cameras are almost never thinking ‘I want solar cameras.’ They’re thinking: ‘I need cameras on the back lot but there’s no power out there,’ or ‘We’re starting a 6-month construction project and need security coverage without a permanent install.’ Solar is the solution to a physical problem.

Construction Sites

Temporary deployment that moves with your project. Monitor equipment, deter theft, document site conditions — without running power to a temporary location. Repositionable as the site evolves.

Automotive Lots

Dealer lots often have large outdoor inventory areas far from buildings. SolarShield MAX puts AI cameras anywhere on the lot without trenching or conduit.

Remote Properties & Outbuildings

Agricultural properties, storage yards, equipment lots, and outbuildings that have never had cameras. If it doesn't have power or internet, it can still have a camera.

Parking Lots & Garages

Surface parking areas far from building infrastructure. No conduit run, no trenching — position the pole, aim the camera, and it's live on your dashboard.

Temporary & Event Security

Short-term security for events, temporary facilities, or seasonal operations. Deploy for the duration, remove when done. No infrastructure investment.

Property Management

Multi-property managers covering sites with varying infrastructure. SolarShield MAX fills the gaps without requiring separate infrastructure projects at each site.

What's Included in the SolarShield MAX

Power System

2x 175W solar panels, 2x 100Ah lithium batteries (2,560Wh), MPPT solar charge controller, self-heating battery protection, 7+ days runtime without sun.

Connectivity & Management

4G LTE router (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile), remote power status monitoring, remote system reboot, cloud VMS, NEMA 3R weatherproof enclosure.

Security & AI

2x strobe lights included, Turing Core AI license included (3 years), smart video search and alerts, hybrid cloud storage, optional Guardian AI upgrade.

FROM THE FIELD

The question we get most often from construction clients: ‘Can we move it when the project moves?’ Yes — the SolarShield MAX is pole-mounted and relocatable. The 4G connection travels with the unit; there’s nothing site-specific to reconfigure. For general contractors managing multiple active sites, one or two SolarShield MAX units can rotate between projects as security priority shifts.

Looking for a Fully Mobile Security Solution?

For deployments that need even more flexibility — rapid repositioning, higher camera counts, and built-in deterrence — the Verkada MT81 Security Trailer may be the right fit. It’s a different approach: trailer-mounted instead of pole-mounted, with up to 6 cameras and full Verkada platform integration.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it work in a Utah winter?

The SolarShield MAX was specifically engineered for extended low-light and cold conditions: 7+ days of runtime without any solar input, self-heating battery protection down to extreme temperatures, and high-efficiency panels that capture energy even in diffuse winter light.

What cellular carrier does it use?

The built-in 4G LTE router supports AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. We verify signal strength at your location before deployment and recommend the carrier with the strongest coverage.

Can it be relocated when we need to move it?

Yes — that's one of its primary advantages for construction sites and temporary deployments. The unit is pole-mounted and relocatable. The 4G connection moves with the unit.

Does it integrate with other cameras we already have?

Yes — the Turing Vision platform manages SolarShield MAX cameras alongside any other Turing cameras under the same dashboard. If you have an existing Turing deployment, the solar cameras simply appear as additional cameras.

We're a general contractor. Can we use one unit across multiple sites?

Yes — and this is one of the most common use cases. One or two SolarShield MAX units can rotate across project sites as security priority shifts. We manage the relocation and reconfiguration each time.

What's the difference between SolarShield and SiteShield?

SolarShield runs entirely on solar power — no power outlet needed. SiteShield connects to standard 110V or 220V power but still uses 4G LTE for connectivity — useful for locations that have power but no internet.

Cameras Where You Have No Power or Internet

SolarShield MAX puts AI security anywhere on your property — construction sites, remote lots, outbuildings, anywhere. Free site assessment included.
