SolarGen / Solar Panels

How they work:

Solar electricity is the technology of converting sunlight into electricity. It is based on photovoltaic or solar modules. The modules are made of numerous silicon cells and when sunlight shines on their surface electricity is generated.

Features

Efficient

All have 36 cells
Monocrystalline silicon cell structure

Compact and Light.

15% smaller and 20% lighter than panels of comparable power and construction.

Semi-Flexible

Thin and semi-flexible allowing them to be fixed to uneven and slightly curved surfaces.

Durable: Storm Proof: Robust.

Bonded between a fiberglass substrate and a tough clear Tedlar/EVA surface they are fully moisture proof and robust

Guarantee

SolarGen modules have a 10 year 90% performance guarantee Performance

Blocking Diode.

A schottky diode is supplied to prevent back feeding of current from a battery into a panel during darkness.

Battery Protection

Voltage regulators are available for single and multiple battery protection.
