Fitting Flexible Solar Panel

Panels should be routinely inspected for hot spots blisters or signs of delamination.

Fitting flexible solar panel.

The rest of the fitting is going to be the same as a standard panel. We sat on the backs of the panels for about 2 3 minutes. 2 3 minutes was ample time and the panels bonded strongly. Nature power 15 watt semi flex monocrystalline solar panel with charge controller for 12 volt battery charging model 56704 142 68 142 68.

They are unlike the regular kind of solar panel which is rigid and cannot be moved. If fitting to a bimini the fabric needs to be taught and the bimini must be well fitted. Because flexible solar panels aren t normally used for stationary applications such as houses you will often find solar panels with lower quality standards.

They can t be bent round sharp curves and they can t withstand pressure on unsupported areas. They can be carefully fitted with the right adhesives around very gentle curves.
