PowerFilm solar panels are monolithically integrated which eliminates the need for damage-prone manual connections of individual solar cells. PowerFilm flexible solar panels are made using amorphous silicon, and are naturally free from heavy metals like cadmium that are used in other technologies.

PowerFilm panels perform well in diverse conditions such as hot sun, and come ready to connect to batteries and an array of handy accessories using marine-grade plug and play connectors. Rugged corner grommets are provided for tying the panels to boat decks, backpacks, tents, and more. Portable solar power has never been more convenient!

Choose from 300, 600, 1800, 1800, or 3600mA output panels that pack easily for any excursion. These outputs are provided at 15.4V, resulting in power ratings of 4.6, 9.2, 18.4, 27.7, & 55.4 Watts respectively.

PowerFilm panels come with a female cigarette (CLA) socket connector, and can also use the accessory cables listed below. A reverse current blocking diode is built-in.

Recommended Battery Chargers
