Features and Construction

Built around a single crystal silicon cell array, this panel offers a rated power of 40W at 18V. The folding bag design protects the panel during transport and enables quick setup.

Material and Build

The panel uses single crystal silicon cells, a widely used photovoltaic material that converts sunlight into electrical current. The black surface is designed to absorb solar radiation efficiently. The folding bag construction keeps the panel protected when not in use and allows it to be deployed or stowed in seconds.

Size and Practical Fit

When folded, the panel measures 425x285x8mm, a compact footprint that fits into most backpacks, luggage compartments, or car boots. This slim profile makes it a realistic addition to any camping or travel kit without taking up excessive space.

Uses and Placement

This panel is intended for outdoor and emergency scenarios where mains power is unavailable. Its folding design suits various temporary setups.

Event or Professional Use

For field workers, film crews, or event organisers operating in remote locations, this panel can provide a renewable trickle charge for batteries, radios, or small electronic equipment. The 18V output is compatible with many 12V systems when used with a suitable charge controller.

Everyday Home Use

Around the home, the panel can serve as a backup charging source during power outages or for maintaining batteries in garden sheds, garages, or summer houses. Its portable nature means it can be moved to follow the sun throughout the day.

Benefits and Buying Value

The key advantage of this panel is its combination of useful power output and genuine portability, avoiding the need for bulky fixed installations.

Reuse and Low Maintenance

Once purchased, the panel requires no fuel and minimal upkeep – simply keep the surface clean and store it dry. With reasonable care, single crystal silicon panels provide years of service, making them a cost-effective source of off-grid power over time.
