    I've had two of these exact panels on top of my campervan for about two years and have had zero problems. Nice and sturdy and easy to mount with all the fixing holes, and it keeps my battery topped up when I'm off-grid. I paid £125 a panel and would buy again, so this is a really good price.

    Edit: Sorry, misread the email. I paid £126 for two before tax, which works out £76 per panel, not £125! (edited)

    £79.99 ATM what controller do you advise ? I'm wanting to fit one to the Rollerteam we bought a few weeks back for this purpose ! Just for 12V etc

    I have a small cabin in the middle of nowhere and have been thinking of kitting it out with solar for a while, but every time I Google it, I've gotten confused and given up.

    Can anyone recommend a good beginner's guide showing what I would need and how to set it up?

    Cheers!

    If you only want 12 volts for lighting and basic stuff like that, then your setup would be very similar to that used in most campervans. You'd need a 12v leisure battery, a couple of solar panels and an MPPT controller (which will convert the higher voltage of the panels to 12v for the battery and also safely charge the battery), and a few other bits of wiring and connectors, etc. Not overly difficult to do really.

    Greg Virgoe is the guru for this sort of stuff on YouTube

    405 watt panel at city plumbing £127 free delivery.....These little ones are ok, but if you want something a big bigger get the 405 watt one. Obviously if you want to use the power in the house, you will need cabling, a charge controller, a battery and an inverter.... probably around £400 for the lot.

    Great price - they are heavy tho 20kg !

    Slightly cheaper here countyelec.co.uk/lon…ack
    although delivery is £145 !! Yikes (edited)

    Sorry I'm new to world of solar panels. Would you need a inverter/battery to use this?
    PaulandPam's avatar
    Yes you need a battery to store the power, as for an inverter that depends if you need to power 230v items, if you just wanted to light a room then 12v led bulbs would work perfectly and a car phone charger would work to charge mobile phones.

    Same price direct, plus loads of more offers better than Amazon. Discount codes too if you leave in the basket 5% gets emailed to you (once you sign in)

    I run a small Solar business. For a motor home or a boat, I always recommend as many bifacial panels as will fit, given the small amount of available area to generate from.

    They benefit from the white background by absorbing energy on the front and back side of the panel. Sharp and Q-Cells both make excellent bifacial panels. Avoid the Chinese owned brands if you can!

    Don't vanish into a world of FANTASY. In a real desert, on a gimble that automatically tracks the sun, you could pull in some useful energy from these. In the UK, at the height of the Summer, at a fixed angle, you'll be getting a small fraction of the theoretical output when averaged across the light hours of the day.

    With a LOT more expense, you can be charging batteries (with their own losses), and gain some useful energy for the dark hours- something like a madmax hobby rather than any form of money saving enterprise.
    matt7powell's avatar
    Agree that there is no money saving incentive for this. However, it has its place. For example, something similar c/w a leisure battery has kept my router and laptop going during power outages...all without my garden smelling and sounding like a Sunday market

    I have the Renogy 100W folding panel which is a bit different to this, but the quality is excellent & I've been very happy with it, I'd expect this to be good too.
    JohnSmith33's avatar
    what kind of wattage does it produce on a good day, if you don't mind me asking?

    I'd be interested to know how it works in conjunction with a power station such as this: amazon.co.uk/dp/…Q==
    Does it just plug straight in to the input, or are there other adaptors that are required? (edited)
    seancharles's avatar
    I'd be interested to know this too
  10. deleted543435's avatar
    I paid £85 for the slimline semi flexible version and is fantastic, produces around 90w on a clear day and around 40w when cloudy. Happy with that.
  11. shescurly's avatar
    I think you still need a controller just to make sure it doesn't boil your leisure battery.
  12. khimbar1's avatar
    Would this connect to a USB power bank and charge that, and if so would I need anything else or would it just plug in?


    Thanks in advance!

    No it would need a charge controller. You can get battery power banks that accept PV inputs but those are far larger than just a USB power bank

    I've got a 175w flexible Renogy panel with a matching 20amp MPPT controller, 2x 110ah semi traction lead acid batteries and a Durite 1500w invertor in my Vivaro van.

    It's been topping up the batteries for a full year now which means I can run a 700w microwave, TV, Fridge and diesel heater for at least a couple of nights without charging.

    As for the amount of power it produces, well that's dependant on sun shine and how much your batteries need topping up. On a perfect Summers day you will be looking at 5amps an hour going back in but if it's overcast (or late Autumn) you will generate very little.

    Also be aware that you will need a charge controller (MPPT preferred) a good battery and a longer pair of power leads.

    Do your batteries charge from the van while driving? (edited)

    What's the major difference between this package?
    amazon.co.uk/gp/…c=1 (edited)
    the-bunker's avatar
    I expect the solar panel in this package is not as good as the Renogy panel - ie: in terms of the amount of solar power produced.
    Don't get sucked in to buying cheap unknown brand panels - they are rarely anywhere near as good as the decent ones.

    I have this identical panel flat on my caravan roof and it's outstanding.
    Last week at mid day in full direct sunlight my mppt charge controller was showing 97w into my agm battery.
    Even in February when I fitted it I got around 45w on a sunny day which considering the sun was much lower in the sky and not overhead is excellent because obviously I couldn't tilt the panel towards it.
    As previously mentioned the foldable panel is also great (I also own one of them) but don't use it because I prefer my roof mounted option for all year charging and no security issues on campsites.

    How did you mount it?
  16. saitama_fan's avatar
    Spray water on increases power 💪

    I had a huge 350w panel on my camper .only £80 from ebay . Hooked up to 40a epever MPPT . Kept me off grid not a problem and the 300ah battery bank was never below 70%
    aym280's avatar
    How much does the whole set up cost you please?
  18. technokeenan's avatar
    I have an MG F with a softtop that I drive once a month or so. Any chance i can stick this solar panel on the parcel shelf and connect to it to the 65mah car battery so I dont have to keep recharging the battery before i want to drive the MG?
    PaulandPam's avatar
    NO, if you connect this direct to your car battery it will overcharge and kill it, you need to also buy a charge controller to prevent overcharge.
    You'd be better of buying a smaller 10 or 15w panel to go in the back or front window and as long as it gets sunshine you'll not need a charge controller because the power will be much less. (edited)
  19. splatsplatsplat's avatar
    I've got this panel (paid £92)
    I have it on my shed, connected to a Ctechi 320wh LifePo Power Station, I use it just incase we get a blackout, it can only power devices up to 200w (you can buy better ones) but perfect to run my laptop, TV, charge phones. I had to buy 1 cable to convert from the solar panel, to the solar input on the Ctechi, but some models come with this cable.

    Would this be suitable to use on a greenhouse to get some sort of heating in the winter?
    PaulandPam's avatar
    No, you'll get more heating from the greenhouse glass itself.
  21. Micrometeoroid's avatar
    (Edit They are still showing £79.99, seems still a good price, what kind of controller
    would be suitable to keep my 12V battery charged etc)

    Damn just missed this !

    We just bought a Rollerteam 3 weeks ago, this would have been ideal, had a good 10 days away there
    and all went well, do these come up at this price quite a lot ?

    100 Watt would be ideal @ 12V etc (edited)
    PaulandPam's avatar
    You'll need a decent MPPT controller to fully benefit from the solar panel something like a Victron bluetooth that has the benefit of showing you all the necessary data on a mobile phone.
    You'll also need some cabling to link the panel to the controller and then to the battery.
    This deal was a good price they usually cost about £80 to £90, I paid £82 last November.
