FAQs
Is this panel waterproof?
The connectors are IP68-rated, meaning they are protected against dust and water immersion. However, the panel surface should be cleaned of moisture after heavy rain.
Can I connect multiple panels together?
Yes, the panel's design supports parallel wiring, allowing you to link multiple units to increase total power output.
What is the weight of the unit?
The panel weighs approximately 15.87 lbs.
Does this include a charge controller?
This is a standalone panel. You will need to connect it to a compatible solar charge controller or a portable power station that includes a built-in MPPT controller.
Can I leave the panel out in the rain?
While the materials are weather-resistant, it is best practice to stow the panels when not in use to avoid unnecessary wear from extreme weather.
How often should I clean the solar panels?
Clean them whenever you notice a visible layer of dust or debris, or if you observe a drop in expected power output.
Troubleshooting
Low power output
Ensure the panel is in direct sunlight and not blocked by dust or shade. Check the tilt angle.
No output detected
Verify all MC4 or connection points are clean and securely locked. Check your charge controller settings.
Physical damage to the surface
If the ETFE layer is punctured, discontinue use immediately to prevent moisture ingress and short circuits.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, simply unlatch the suitcase, extend the integrated kickstands to your desired angle, and lock them in place. Connect your solar charge controller or power station using the IP68-rated connectors. To maintain the panel, regularly wipe the surface with a damp, non-abrasive cloth to remove dust, pollen, or bird droppings, which can impede light absorption. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, as these can scratch the ETFE layer and reduce the panel's lifespan. Store the unit in its folded state in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
