100W LIGHTWEIGHT SEMI-FLEXIBLE SOLAR PANEL
28th Sep 2021
A traditional solar panel is a rigid build and is often encased in tempered glass, whereas the Newpowa 100W Lightweight 12V Monocrystalline Semi-Flexible Solar Panel is composed of the latest ETFE laminating technology with versatility in mind and is geared towards intricate surface installations & mounting. Due to its thin and lightweight profile, the 100W Semi-Flexible Solar Panel has a 248 degree of flexibility and can be easily installed on any curved surface, making it the ideal choice for marine boats, teardrop trailers, and overlanding tents. Its ability to absorb sunlight from a wider angle, multiplies light refraction and leads to a higher energy conversion rate.
Did you know that solar panels produce no atmospheric emissions and zero greenhouse gasses? That is because they don’t burn fuel and have no moving parts to them! They’re silent and provide a source of clean energy and have proven to be beneficial for our planet.
Two key benefits that come to mind when you use the Newpowa 100W LIGHTWEIGHT SEMI-FLEXIBLE SOLAR PANEL for your marine installations are… money and silence! Enjoy longer time on the water while saving your generator and engines with solar installations while also maintaining the longevity and performance of your batteries and equipment.
So how does it work exactly? Simple. The solar panels are connected to the boat’s battery and feeds a constant supply of energy to the battery, which is then used to power the boat. Any unused additional energy is stored in the battery and is used to provide you with power at night.
Newpowa’s 100W LIGHTWEIGHT SEMI-FLEXIBLE SOLAR PANEL provide continuous clean energy to your batteries and are a great option due to their affordable pricing and durability. Additionally, since all batteries self-discharge, adding a small solar panel to your system can eliminate the problems caused by dead batteries. A truly efficient fully solar equipped boat would not have to use its engine as a charger at all. Give yourself peace of mind by always knowing that, should your engine ever fail, you still have a reliable source of electrical power.
Each Newpowa 100W LIGHTWEIGHT SEMI-FLEXIBLE SOLAR PANEL features a sleek, highly flexible, ultra-lightweight design that is exceptionally durable and made with the latest ETFE (Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) laminating technology. Each semi-flexible solar panel is weather, water and corrosion resistant, allowing them to stand up extremely well to the harsh environment on a boat.
Benefits of Using Solar Panels on Boats:
Free Electricity – The sun and the electricity produced by solar panels is free. Once paid for and installed, solar panels cost nothing to run, thus providing you with free power!
Easy to Use – Since solar panels function automatically in daylight, there is absolutely nothing for you to do!
Quiet – Solar panels eliminate the need to run your engine to charge your batteries, providing a cool and quiet cabin.
Environmentally Friendly – Solar panels produce zero pollution and aid in the conservation of our natural resources!
No Dead Batteries – Batteries stay constantly topped off with the help of solar panels, eliminating the need to run your engine prior to departure.
Low Maintenance – To maintain the longevity of your solar panels, wipe them off with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove any dirt and salt.
To optimize your power production, we recommend keeping the panels as perpendicular to the incoming sun’s rays as possible, keep your panels cool and avoid shadows. It is important to note that although solar panels do not function at night and will not perform as well under cloudy conditions, having a marine solar setup leads to less wear and tear on your engine, and consequently minimal maintenance overall.
Don’t allow yourself to be powerless with an engine fail or dead battery every again!
