10th May 2021
Solar panels are designed in different sizes according to their output. This article will mainly focus on small wattage panels, including 10W-50W solar panels. Let's explore what are the common applications for a small-wattage panel, such as a 30W solar panel.
Newpowa 30W 12V Monocrystalline Solar Panels
Like ordinary-sized solar panels, small wattage solar panels like the 30W solar panels are made of semiconductor materials such as silicon. The difference between them is that 30W panels are smaller in size.
Here are the key features of the 30W solar panel:
- High performance cells up to 21% conversion rate
- Nominal 12V DC output
- Heavy-dust anodized frame
- High-transparent glass
- Durable TPT back sheet
- Pre-attached Anderson/ connectors
At Newpowa, other small wattage panels like 10W and20W all have the same features.
Applications of Small Wattage Panels
So what can a 30W solar panel do, and what are the common applications for small wattage panels?
The small wattage panels can be used to charge the battery with a small amount of electricity for a relatively long period. It is also known as trickle charging. It can keep the battery at the best level and extend its service life. If your vehicle is going to sit for a while, using a small wattage solar panel is a great way to prevent your battery from going flat.

Small wattage panels are suitable for farmers or animal keepers, because they can be mounted on the fences. If the animals attempt to run out, the low current on the fence ensures that the animals won't be hurt.
The small wattage solar panels collect proper solar energy to generate the electricity needed to open and close the gate opener. Therefore, they are conducive to saving a considerable amount of electricity fee.
Since most cameras are DC electrical devices, small wattage solar panels can generate electricity for security surveillance, etc, which keep your property monitored even during power outages.
Solar lighting includes solar signal lighting, solar insecticidal lighting, solar lawn lighting, etc. In some specific locations, the power grid cannot supply power. Solar panels can solve the power supply problem for these lighting facilities.
Besides, Newpowa provides small wattage solar kits, including 20W Solar Kit and 30W Solar Kit.
These small wattage kits include the following components:
Benefits of Small Wattage Panels
Because the output of the small wattage panel is smaller, their price is lower than that of the large wattage panels. This means starting with small wattage panels won't cost you much.
Small wattage panels are smaller in size and lighter in weight compared with big ones. It can be easily moved from the previous location to the next. In addition, small wattage panels are easy to carry when camping, hiking, or RV trips.
Main usages of small wattage panels have been listed above. At the same time, small wattage panels can also be applied to communication equipment in remote areas.
Small wattage solar panels usually operate with little maintenance. All they need is regular cleaning to make sure dirt, leaves and other debris don't block the sun.
In Short
Small wattage panels also have many applicable scenarios and advantages, although the output of which is not large. We can purchase solar panels of different output according to our own needs.
