Questions? Call 1-800-680-4080.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis rigid bifacial monocrystalline solar panel is made for higher-output charging in off-grid systems, RVs, sheds, farms and rooftop setups, and for recharging compatible portable power stations. Dual-sided cells capture light from both the front and the rear, and pre-fitted MC4 connectors make hookup simple. Choose a single 200W panel or a 400W set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSolar panels turn sunlight into usable power, so you can recharge without the grid. Pair the panel with a compatible charge controller, battery or power station to keep your gear running wherever the sun reaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBifacial monocrystalline solar panel with 18BB A+ cells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptions: 200W, 400W (2 x 200W) or 400W (4 x 100W) double-sided\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMC4 connectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemovable module housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCell efficiency listed by the manufacturer at up to 25.6%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRigid panel construction for outdoor, rooftop and off-grid use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRV roofs, cabins and sheds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOff-grid and home backup systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharging compatible portable power stations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat to expect from the sun\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a clear day with about four hours of strong sunlight, a 200W panel typically yields roughly 600Wh of usable energy after real-world losses, and a 400W set roughly 1,200Wh. Cloud, haze, shade and a poor angle will reduce that. Bifacial panels can add extra output from reflected light, depending on how they are mounted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA solar panel only produces power while it is in sunlight, and its rated wattage is what it can deliver under ideal conditions, so real-world output will usually be lower. These are rigid panels and need to be mounted securely. Before you order, make sure the panel's voltage, current and MC4 connectors are compatible with the charge controller, power station or battery you plan to charge. An MC4 adapter cable may be needed for some power stations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho this is not for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnyone who wants a foldable panel they can carry and set up quickly, or whose power station has no MC4-compatible solar input.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSetup and care\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount on a flat, secure surface angled toward the sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect to a compatible charge controller or power station before leaving it in the sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep the panel clean and free of shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure it against wind and inspect connections periodically\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does bifacial mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth sides of the panel can collect light, so it can capture extra reflected light from the rear when mounted with open space behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it work on cloudy days?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, but at much lower output.
