Product Details
This 60W monocrystalline solar panel is highly efficient and waterproof, making it ideal for permanent outdoor use. It is designed to provide free electricity for charging 12V batteries in applications such as camper vans, motorhomes, boats, sheds, farms, and remote setups like telecommunications or monitoring equipment. It can also power applications that are not sensitive to changes in input voltage or current, such as electric motors or pumps. The panel comes with 5m of special solar cable that can work at high roof temperatures with minimal power losses. It is also equipped with male/female MC4 connectors for easy connection to other solar panels, existing systems, or 2.5mm extension cables. Additionally, the panel features long-lasting, high-efficiency monocrystalline solar cells and a tough, sealed aluminum frame for consistent, free power over many years. The waterproof design allows for use in all weather conditions. The panel also includes innovative 5 busbar solar cells, which are more efficient than the 2, 3, or 4 busbar solar cells used in most other solar panels. These cells can extract more power from the same surface area, resulting in a smaller overall panel, making it ideal for limited-space applications. Furthermore, these solar cells operate well in higher ambient temperatures, making them suitable for warmer climates. If using this solar panel to charge a 12V battery or battery bank, it is important to note that a solar charge controller/regulator is required.

This product comes with a 1-year workmanship warranty provided by Photonic Universe. Defective items will be repaired or replaced at their discretion. Additionally, the solar cells are guaranteed to produce at least 90% of nominal power in 10 years after purchase and at least 80% of nominal power in 25 years after purchase, as provided by the manufacturer of the solar cells.
In terms of installation, please note that this solar panel does not come with an installation manual, as it needs to be connected to other devices such as a solar charge controller or inverter, which are supplied with their own manuals. If you plan to use this panel to charge a 12V battery, it's recommended to purchase one of Photonic Universe's solar charge controllers, which include detailed installation instructions and wiring diagrams. For support with installation or any technical questions, you can contact Photonic Universe via email or phone for free assistance.
