Eco-Friendly Surveillance with V-Mini Centinel Solar CCTV Tower
Newly updated for 2025, the V-Mini Centinel and V-Mini Centinel Solar are compact, user-friendly CCTV towers designed for rapid deployment.
Lightweight, versatile, and easy to manoeuvre, the tower can be positioned indoors or outdoors and deployed on-site within 15–20 minutes. It is an ideal standalone solution or a valuable addition to a wider V-Ceptor fleet, offering sustainable, off-grid surveillance where mains power is unavailable.
Mini CCTV Tower Key Features
Compact by design: The collapsible galvanised mast reduces for transportation and is available in two mast heights – 2.2m or 3.2m.
2025 updates: A fixed brake winch-operated mast makes deployment safer and easier, while the redesigned cabinet base with skids improves stability (approx. 860mm × 600mm).
Durable finish: Supplied in powder coat RAL 9003 White semi-gloss as standard, with bases available in any BS RAL colour for branding.
Solar and battery power: Powered by lithium batteries (2 × 13.5kg, total 26kg), with AGM batteries available on request. Dual solar panels and a 35kg bracket frame deliver renewable off-grid power, with an option to add a quad solar panel arrangement for extended winter performance.
Stability and portability: Adjustable legs, lifting handles, and the option of Spirafix ground anchors ensure reliable positioning on varied terrain.
Lightweight build: At just 78kg without batteries and approx. 175kg fully equipped, the tower remains easy to manoeuvre yet robust enough for long-term site security.
