Common Questions Does this panel come with a solar charge controller? No, this 120W folding solar panel is supplied without a solar charge controller. This allows you the flexibility to choose a controller that best suits your specific 12V or 24V battery system and application. Can I use this panel with a 24V battery system? Yes, this panel is compatible with 24V battery systems. However, it is pre-wired for 12V. For 24V operation, you will need to re-wire the panel or use a buck-boost solar charge controller. What type of batteries can this panel charge? This folding solar panel is designed for charging 12V or 24V lead-acid, gel, AGM, or lithium batteries, depending on the capabilities of your chosen solar charge controller. It is suitable for vehicle, marine, and off-grid battery banks. Is the panel waterproof? Yes, the 120W Photonic Universe folding solar panel features a completely waterproof design, allowing for reliable use in various outdoor weather conditions. Installation Notes Requires an external solar charge controller (not included) for operation. Connect the 5m bare-ended solar cable to your chosen solar charge controller. Ensure correct polarity when connecting the panel to the charge controller and battery. Position the panel using the adjustable stand for optimal sun exposure throughout the day. For 24V systems, re-wiring the panel or using a buck-boost controller is necessary. Store the panel securely in its protective case when not in use to prevent damage. Before You Buy Verify your battery bank's voltage (12V or 24V) and chemistry (e.g., lead-acid, lithium). Select a suitable solar charge controller (MPPT or PWM) compatible with your battery type and system voltage. Consider your daily power requirements to ensure the 120W output is sufficient for your needs. Check the 5m cable length for your intended setup and controller placement. Ensure you have any necessary connectors or tools for integrating the panel with your chosen controller. Please verify all specifications and compatibility requirements before purchase. This product includes a 1-year workmanship warranty. Solar cells are guaranteed to generate at least 90% of nominal power for 10 years and 80% for 25 years, provided by the manufacturer.
