150W SEMI-FLEXIBLE FIBREGLASS SOLAR PANEL WITH DURABLE ETFE COATING

150W semi-flexible fibreglass solar panel with durable ETFE coating. This solar panel is highly durable, reinforced with fibreglass plastic and has a strong ETFE surface. It is made from monocrystalline solar cells. This high-efficiency 150W solar panel is perfect for permanent outdoor use to provide free electricity for charging 12V batteries for various applications, such as motorhomes, caravans, campers, boats, solar lighting systems, off-grid, back-up solar power systems, direct power supply for applications not sensitive to changes in input voltage or current (e.g. electric motors or pumps), and various grid-tie applications.

Product Features:

- Robust construction using plastic reinforced with glass fibre creates a sturdy and durable solar panel.

- Special textured surface significantly reduces light reflection and improves performance in low light and cloudy conditions.

- Highly flexible design makes this panel ideal for curved roofs and surfaces where bonding is preferable (though it can also be fixed by bolts or screws).

- The panel is incredibly light (only 2.85kg) and very thin (just 2mm), which is great for all vehicles.

- High resistance to saltwater environments makes it perfect for boats and marine applications.

- Sealed waterproof design ensures it can be used in all weather conditions.

- Strong ETFE coating: In addition to the fibreglass reinforcement, the surface of this 150W semi-flexible solar panel is made of strong ETFE material, which has a longer service life compared to standard semi-flexible solar panels. As a result, these particular semi-flexible solar panels are extremely hard-wearing and less prone to cracking, delamination, and corrosion. The lightly textured coating of this panel creates an anti-reflective surface, which allows the panel to absorb a far greater amount of light, thereby increasing efficiency.

ETFE material has been used in applications where durability and high-temperature resistance are necessary. An example of its use is the Eden Project in Cornwall. You can learn more about ETFE and its benefits here.

High-quality 9-busbar solar cells: This panel features a new generation of 9-busbar solar cells that are more efficient than the 2, 3, 4, or 5 busbar solar cells used in most other panels. They can extract more power from the same surface area, resulting in a smaller overall solar panel, ideal for applications where space is limited.

Anti-reflective textured surface: The textured surface of this solar panel reduces light reflection while maximizing light absorption from every possible angle. This ensures high performance in low light or cloudy conditions, or when the light falls at an angle (in the morning, evening, or winter).

Ease of connectivity: The panel is fitted with 2 x 1m of cable specially designed for solar panels to carry high currents with negligible power loss (4mm cross-section). The cable comes with waterproof MC4 connectors, which can be used for easy connectivity to your existing system, for linking several panels together, or for connecting a 4mm extension cable.

This product comes with a 1-year workmanship warranty covering material and production defects. It also includes a detailed instruction manual, which explains wiring and operations. You can download the manual in the Documents tab.

Charging a 12V battery: Please note that this panel requires a solar charge controller/regulator to charge a 12V battery; it cannot be connected directly to the battery. All of our solar charge controllers come with a detailed instruction manual, which explains the installation and wiring. You can view the full range of solar charge controllers we offer by visiting the Solar Charge Controllers category of our online shop. For boats, we particularly recommend our 20A waterproof solar charge controller.
