Our new Lifestyle range is perfect for occasional campers and those who like to explore their world on a budget.
We’ve spent over 12 months working with our industrial designers, engineers and production team to create a range of products that are incredibly cost-effective without sacrificing the quality and usability which are synonymous with the Hardkorr brand.
So if you’re looking for a great everyday range of camping and adventure products that won’t break the bank, look no further than the Hardkorr Lifestyle range.
Our best value solar blanket… ever!
The first thing you’ll notice is how compact this solar blanket is. It folds down to just 370mm by 350mm, but with a rated output of up to 10.7A per hour it’s powerful enough to run a large campsite. The blanket is made from a durable poly/cotton canvas and has 12 panels, all constructed from certified A-grade monocrystalline solar cells.
The package includes everything you need to operate the blanket, including a 20A solar regulator, 6m extension cable and battery clamps, all with Anderson-style plugs for super easy setup.
So if you want to keep your batteries charged, lights on, beers cold and food fresh without selling a kidney – you can’t go past the Hardkorr Lifestyle 200w solar blanket.

The blanket is great but the controller needs better connections than the screw type which come loose. Also the Anderson plug is not Uv stabilised as mine broke to pieces after 10 months of normal use..

Had it hooked to my battery(100ah) under bonnet thru projector dc dc, then had the another 100ah batt in the back ( in hard korr batt box) of the wagon, i didnt have an amp meter but it was putting back 14.8v easily in no time at all, we ran a 40lt waeco as a freezer and a 60lt engal as frodge for 4 days without a prob, im very happy with my purchase

Folds up and fits perfectly in the drawers in the back of our 4WD. Perfect size to lie on the windscreen/bonnet. We bought it to for our fridge and it performed really well in bright sunshine and maintained battery level while overcast. Overall we are really happy with the purchase.

Quality of the Solar Panel seems very good and in recent use was pulling in just under 10A in full sun using my built in dc/dc charger’s solar input. The quality of the 6m cable that came with the blanket was quite poor, the Anderson connector was not crimped correctly and the cable didn’t work. I contacted support, only to be offered a replacement terminal that I need to fit myself. I just ended up going out and purchasing a separate Anderson extension lead to use.
