Renogy 100W Solar Panel for RVs, Boats, and Off-Grid Applications

Product Description

Grade A+ Solar Cells

Renogy's 100W 12V Monocrystalline solar panel is equipped with Grade A+ solar cells that have been EL-tested. This ensures the highest power conversion efficiency and a prolonged lifespan. The panel also uses PERC cells to deliver an excellent cell efficiency of 22%.

Advanced Structure

Renogy has incorporated advanced solar cell technology and panel structure into their 100W 12V solar panel. They have utilized the newest 9 Bus-bars cell technology and Half-cell structure. This arrangement allows for the full-size solar cell to be cut in half and closely arranged, maximizing space usage. The thinner ribbon design also reduces current and resistance loss, increasing the cell receiving surface.

Premium Material

Renogy's solar panel is built with superior quality and materials. The panel features low iron-tempered glass and corrosion-resistant aluminum frames with polyamide corner support. This ensures durability and the ability to withstand all weather conditions, such as snow, rain, and heat. With IP65 protection, the panel can last for decades.

Withstand All Weathers

Renogy's 100W 12V solar panel is designed to withstand all weather conditions. It is built with high-quality materials that allow it to perform even during cloudy weather. While the power conversion may not be as high as on sunny days, the panel will still produce power.

What does the 12V/24V in the product title of the solar panel mean?

The 12V/24V in the product title does not refer to the actual voltage of the solar panel. Instead, it indicates the voltage of the solar system or energy storage system to which the panel is best suited.

Why is it different from the value on the label/specification sheet of the solar panel?

The voltage of the solar panel must be higher than the solar system voltage. This is why it may differ from the value on the label or specification sheet.

What equipment does an off-grid solar system require?

For a functioning off-grid solar system, you will need solar panels, a solar charge controller, inverter(s), batteries, a mounting and racking system, and wiring cables and fuses.

Why are my solar panels underproducing?

There are several reasons why solar panels may underproduce. Environmental conditions such as indirect sunlight, temperature rise, cloudy skies, and dirt and stain buildup on the top glass can all hinder the performance of a solar panel, resulting in lower efficiency.

Will this panel produce power in overcast conditions?

Yes, Renogy's solar panel is designed to produce power even during overcast conditions. However, please note that the power conversion may not be as high as on sunny days.
