Marine Vessels Ideal for boats and yachts due to its waterproof design and ability to withstand deck conditions. Off-Grid Cabins & Sheds Powers lighting, small appliances, and charging systems in remote locations. Remote Monitoring Stations Supplies continuous power for low-power sensors and communication equipment where grid access is limited. Built-In Protection Functions The included 10A dual battery charge controller features comprehensive electronic protection functions to prevent damage from installation mistakes or system faults. These include: Reverse Current Protection • Overload Protection • Open Circuit Protection • Lightning Surge Protection • Deep Discharge Protection • Charge Current Protection (up to 10A). Common Questions Can this kit charge both my leisure and engine battery? Yes, the included 10A dual battery charge controller is specifically designed to manage and charge two separate 12V or 24V battery banks simultaneously, making it ideal for vehicles with auxiliary batteries. Is the solar panel truly flexible? The panel is semi-flexible, allowing it to conform to slight curves of up to 3cm per metre. This makes it suitable for mounting on curved roofs or decks without compromising performance. What is the ETFE surface and why is it beneficial? ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene) is a highly durable, self-healing top layer that protects the solar cells from minor abrasions and environmental wear. It also provides an anti-slip surface, particularly useful for marine applications. What is included in the 'Fixing Kit'? The fixing kit typically includes a specialised bonding agent (such as Simson ISR 70-03) and a waterproof cable gland, along with detailed installation instructions to secure the panel effectively. Installation Notes The panel can be bonded to flat or slightly curved surfaces (up to 3cm curve per metre) using a suitable adhesive like Simson ISR 70-03. Pre-drilled holes are provided for mechanical fixing, offering an alternative or supplementary installation method. It is crucial to follow the recommended glue pattern (as detailed in the instructions) to ensure adequate airflow beneath the panel, preventing heat build-up and potential warping. Ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and free from contaminants before applying any bonding agent. Professional installation is recommended to ensure optimal performance, safety, and longevity of the system. Before You Buy Verify your battery system voltage (12V or 24V) to ensure compatibility with the included charge controller. Assess the available mounting surface for flatness or slight curvature to ensure proper panel adhesion and installation. Consider your daily power consumption to confirm that the 60W output meets your energy requirements. Always consult the detailed installation instructions provided with the kit for specific guidance and safety information. Specifications are based on manufacturer data and are subject to change. Always verify compatibility and installation requirements before purchase.
