RuralGuard Solar 360

Some spots will never have power. That was always the excuse.

The gate at the end of the track. The field shelter. The allotment. The far shed. Running power out there was never going to happen - so they've sat unwatched for years.

The Solar 360 exists for exactly those spots. Sun in, footage out, nothing else needed.

Where the Solar 360 earns its keep.

Field gates & entrances

Watch the track and the gate that's a ten-minute walk away.

Shelters & stables

Eyes on horses and livestock where there's no power for miles.

Allotments & far sheds

The spots that have sat unwatched for years — sorted in ten minutes.

DETECTION & TRACKING

Sees a person at 40 metres. Then follows them.

This isn't a doorbell camera that pings for every rabbit. AI human detection picks out a person at 40–50 metres — and when it does, the camera pans and tilts automatically to keep them in view, so you see where they went, not just where they appeared.

You get the alert on your phone as it happens. At night, infrared sees 30 metres in total darkness, with colour night vision closer in.

Alerts land on your phone wherever you are — the kitchen, the market, or a sunbed in Spain.

24/7 RECORDING

It records everything. Not just clips.

Most solar cameras wake up for motion, grab a ten-second clip, and go back to sleep — with gaps where anything could have happened. The Solar 360 records around the clock, so when the gate's open and you don't know why, you scroll back through the timeline and find out.

64GB holds around 3 weeks of footage. 128GB holds around 6. On your card, on your camera — no cloud subscription, ever.

And playback is in the app — you never climb a post to pull a memory card.

You're not buying from a warehouse.

RuralGuard is run by two brothers. Before this, I spent years setting up cameras for farms and estates — hundreds of them — so if you get stuck, you're not emailing a support queue. You're messaging someone who's stood up the ladder doing it.
Message us before you buy, after you buy, or six months down the line. Same person answers.

The winter question, answered straight.

Every solar camera company gets asked it. Most dodge it; some flat-out lie. Here's ours: solar cameras live on daylight, and a Scottish December doesn't have much of it. No solar camera on the market is immune to that — whatever the listing says. In the darkest weeks, expect any solar setup to run low.

The good news: when it does, you just charge it. Take the battery in, charge it overnight at home, put it back out — a few minutes' job, once or twice in deep winter, and you're running again. The power-saving helps too: the camera idles at one frame a second until something moves, stretching every charge through the dull spells.

Make any solar setup last longer out there: panel facing south, out of shade, wiped clean now and then. Small stuff; big difference.

We'd rather tell you all this before you buy than have you find out in January. That's the deal.

The 4G SIM

The SIM's already done.

A 4G camera needs mobile data, same as a phone. Yours arrives with the SIM fitted, activated and tested. Nothing to register, nothing to set up, nothing to work out. Switch it on and it's live.

Pick a plan at checkout. No contract.

We check the signal for you.

Before your camera leaves us, we check 4G coverage at your postcode. If it won't work at your spot, we'll tell you and refund you in full before it ships — you're never stuck with a camera that can't do the job. Going somewhere other than your delivery address? Reply to your order confirmation and we'll check there instead.

Thirty days to change your mind.

If it's not right, send it back and we'll refund you — no restocking fee, no quibbling, no having to justify yourself. Eighteen-month warranty after that, and a real person on WhatsApp the whole way.

Questions we get asked most

If yours isn't here, message us - a real person replies.
Will it work if I've got no WiFi and no power?

That's exactly what it's built for. The solar panel is built in, so there's no mains and no battery to buy, and it runs on 4G rather than broadband. All it needs is daylight and a mobile signal.

How do I know I'll get a signal at my spot?

We check it for you. Once you've ordered, we check 4G coverage at your postcode before the camera leaves us. If it won't work at your spot, we'll tell you straight and refund you in full before it ships.

Do you need my postcode to set up the SIM?

No. The SIM isn't tied to a location — it connects to whichever network is strongest wherever the camera ends up, so we can fit, activate and test it here before it ships.

What happens in the winter?

Solar cameras live on daylight, and a Scottish December hasn't got much of it. In the darkest weeks, expect any solar setup to run low — ours included. When it does, you can charge the camera with a USB-C cable.

Is it hard to set up? Do I need an electrician?

No electrician, no wiring, no trenching. It straps to a post or a wall, the SIM's already in and tested, and you pair it to your phone through the app. Most people are up and running in about ten minutes.

Do I have to pay for the data plan separately?

Yes - the camera is a one-off purchase and the 4G data is a monthly plan from £8.50, which you can add to your order on this page. No contract, and you can move up or down a plan anytime at no charge.

How much footage does it keep before it overwrites?

It records around the clock rather than grabbing short motion clips, so you can scroll back through the timeline. A 64GB card holds roughly 3 weeks and a 128GB card roughly 6, depending on how much movement it's picking up.

Can more than one person view the camera?

Yes. You can share access so more than one phone can view it — useful if there's a few of you keeping an eye on the same yard or the same beat.

What if it doesn't work when it arrives?

Message us and we'll sort it. You've got 30 days to send it back for a full refund if it's not right — no restocking fee and no having to justify yourself — and an 18-month warranty after that.

Ready when you are.
