This charger is not intended to be placed out in the weather. It is designed for use inside a car. I have heard of users who have aplied RTV Silicone to the unit to seal it against the weather, though that would only last for a year or so.

The NPower Powersports Charger uses an amorphous panel that will work through a windshield. Northern Tool also sells chargers designed for vehicle use that would hook to your battery, or plug into a 12 volt auxiliary socket and keep the battery charged. See links below.

Yes, this NPower power-sports charger is capable of charging your battery as long as it is 12 volt.

There are many different conditions and applications that effect a solar chargers performance so I am not able to give you an approximate charge time.

The dimensions are 19.5 inches long, 5-7/8 inches wide, and 1.5 inches high.
