100W 12V solar panel with 5m cable This high efficiency, waterproof 100W 12V monocrystalline solar panel is perfect for permanent outdoor use to provide free electricity for charging 12V batteries to power various applications such as in a camper van, motorhome, boat, shed, farm, as well as remote applications such as telecommunications or monitoring equipment. It can also be used to provide a direct power supply for applications not sensitive to changes in input voltage / current (e.g. electric motors or pumps). The panel is fitted with 5m of special solar cable which can work at high roof temperatures, with minimum power losses. A pair of male / female MC4 connectors are crimped on the end of cable for easy connection to other solar panels, your existing system or 4mm extension cable . The MC4 connectors can also be cut off when wiring to the screw terminals of a solar charge controller. The long-lasting, high-efficiency monocrystalline solar cells and the tough, sealed, aluminium frame will give you years and years of consistent, free power. The waterproof design ensures that the panel can be used in all weather conditions .

This solar panel features innovative 5 busbar solar cells which are more efficient than the 2, 3, or 4 busbar solar cells used in most other solar panels. They can extract more power from the same surface area, resulting in a smaller overall solar panel, which is ideal for limited space applications. These solar cells are also suitable for warmer climates and can operate well even in high ambient temperatures.

If you plan to use this solar panel to charge a 12V battery or battery bank, please note that it requires a solar charge controller/regulator. You can find a full range of solar charge controllers in our online shop under the Solar Charge Controllers category.

Installation:
This solar panel does not come with an installation manual as it needs to be connected to other devices like a solar charge controller or inverter, which are supplied with manuals. If you plan to use this panel to charge a 12V battery, we recommend purchasing one of our solar charge controllers. All our solar charge controllers include an instruction manual with detailed installation instructions and wiring diagrams. If you need help with installation or have any technical questions, we can provide free support. Please contact us by email or phone (see Contact Us page for more information).
