This solar panel is a highly durable, semi-flexible panel in black color, reinforced with fiberglass plastic and featuring a strong ETFE surface. It is made from monocrystalline solar cells with a high efficiency of 270W. This panel is perfect for permanent outdoor use and can charge 12V batteries to power various applications such as motorhomes, caravans, campers, boats, solar lighting systems, off-grid and backup solar power systems. It can also be used for direct power supply for applications not sensitive to changes in input voltage/current, like electric motors or pumps, and for various grid-tie applications. The panel is robustly constructed using plastic reinforced with glass fiber, creating a sturdy and durable solar panel. It has a special textured surface that significantly reduces light reflection and improves performance in low light and cloudy conditions. The highly flexible design makes it ideal for curved roofs and surfaces, where bonding is preferable, but it can also be fixed with bolts or screws. The black backing of the solar panel makes it ideal for discreet and aesthetically pleasing installation on dark-colored roofs, vehicles, or mounting surfaces. Additionally, the panel is incredibly light, weighing only 5.00kg and very thin, just 2mm, which is great for all vehicles. It is also highly resistant to saltwater environments, making it perfect for boats and marine applications.

The semi-flexible 270W solar panel has a sealed waterproof design, making it suitable for all weather conditions. Its surface is made of durable ETFE material, providing a longer service life compared to standard semi-flexible solar panels. The textured coating creates an anti-reflective surface, allowing the panel to absorb more light and increase efficiency. This material is known for its durability and high-temperature resistance, and has been used in applications such as the Eden Project in Cornwall.

Additionally, the panel features new generation 9-busbar solar cells, which are more efficient than traditional busbar cells. The unique black backing allows for discreet and aesthetically pleasing installation on dark-colored surfaces. The panel is also designed to perform well in low light or cloudy conditions, thanks to its textured surface that maximizes light absorption from all angles.

The panel comes with 2 x 1m of cable specifically designed for solar panels, with waterproof MC4 connectors for easy connectivity. It also has the following specifications: Peak power: 270W, Maximum power voltage: 24.2V, Maximum power current: 11.16A, Open circuit voltage: 28.6V, Short circuit current: 11.83A, Dimensions: 1940 x 710 x 2 mm, Weight: 5.00 kg. It comes with a 3-year workmanship warranty covering material and production defects.

If you plan to use this panel for charging a 12V battery, it will require a 30A MPPT solar charge controller to ensure optimal efficiency. Please note that using a standard non-MPPT (PWM) solar charge controller in a 12V system will result in reduced charging efficiency.
