200 Watt Semi Flex Solar Panel Kit with Controller

At Home On Wheels, we prioritize top-tier solar technology. We've sourced some of the best solar panels available for inclusion in our kits. Our standout product is the highly durable, black, semi-flexible solar panel enhanced with anodized aluminum and a robust ETFE surface, crafted from efficient monocrystalline solar cells. This model includes a rear-mounted circular junction box and a 3m dual-core cable. Engineered for permanent outdoor use, this high-efficiency 200W solar panel excels in providing free electricity to charge 12V batteries, powering various applications like motorhomes, caravans, campers, boats, as well as solar lighting systems, off-grid setups, and backup solar power systems. It's also suitable for direct power applications and various grid-tie systems.
 
Reinforcement and Durability: Our reinforced semi-flexible solar panel boasts a unique seven-layer construction with an embedded sheet of anodized aluminum, fully encapsulated within the panel for enhanced strength and resilience, making it among the most robust options available. The ETFE-coated surface extends the panel's lifespan, making it more resistant to cracking, delamination, and corrosion. Its lightly textured coating serves as an anti-reflective layer, significantly boosting light absorption and efficiency.
 
Advanced Solar Cell Technology: Featuring cutting-edge 5-busbar solar cells, our panel outperforms conventional 2, 3, or 4 busbar cells by harnessing more power from the same surface area, resulting in a more compact panel ideal for space-constrained applications. These cells also perform exceptionally well in higher temperatures, making them perfect for warmer climates.
 
Installation and Aesthetics: Designed for simplicity, the panel's junction box and cabling are neatly arranged on the back, ensuring a smooth, level finish upon installation. Our solar panel is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing, with a unique black backing suitable for discreet installation on dark surfaces. Note: Colors may slightly vary between panels.
 
Additional Features:
The semi-flexible design fits slightly curved surfaces perfectly.
Lightweight at just 5.85kg, ideal for all vehicles.
Highly resistant to salty environments, suitable for marine use.
Sealed and waterproof for all-weather reliability.
Smooth, level surface integration to eliminate trip hazards.
 
For enhanced installation convenience, we upgrade the normal 3m cable to a high-quality 5m dual-core cable, simplifying setup and wiring.
 
Solar Charge Controller Enhancement:
As part of our comprehensive solar kit, we include a 20A 12V/24V solar charge controller, which is essential for optimal charging and battery protection. This controller not only monitors the charging process with precision but also offers an array of programming features to enhance battery life and performance.
 
 
Advanced Technology and User-Friendly Features:
PWM Technology: Utilizes Pulse Width Modulation to increase charge acceptance and extend battery life. It helps in regaining some lost battery capacity.
LCD Display: Equipped with an easy-to-read display showing real-time data on solar panel and battery performance, including voltage, current, state of charge, and temperature. An energy statistics counter is also included to track daily and monthly charge volumes, aiding in performance assessment.
Dual USB Output: Features two USB ports with a combined output of 2.4A for rapid charging of USB-compatible devices like smartphones and tablets.
 
Comprehensive Protection:
The controller ensures safety with several protective measures including reverse current prevention at night, automatic cut-off to prevent over-charging or deep discharge, and safeguards against overheating, overload, short circuit, and reverse polarity.
 
Programming and Monitoring:
Offers advanced programming options for various battery types, selectable via its user interface, which simplifies operation with two multifunctional buttons.
Supports direct connection of a 12V load with customizable settings for nighttime applications, such as lighting or fans.
 
Enhanced Compatibility and Precision:
Suitable for solar panels up to 320W in a 12V system or 640W in a 24V system, with a maximum solar input voltage of 50V, making it versatile for both on-grid and off-grid setups.
Automatically adjusts to the connected battery type, whether sealed, gel, or flooded, and works efficiently across 12V or 24V systems.
 
Temperature Sensing:
Integrated temperature sensor for accurate charging adjustments based on battery temperature. An optional remote temperature sensor can also be connected for even more precise temperature readings directly from the battery.
 
This charge controller is a pivotal component in our solar kits, ensuring your energy systems operate efficiently and safely, maximizing the longevity and performance of your batteries.
