The Flexopower Karoo 230W Teflon Portable Solar Panel’s compact folding design lets you pack off grid power for your next adventure even when load space is tight
This new workhorse portable solar panel from Flexopower folds to the size of a phonebook, so you’ll be able to find packing space for it in almost any vehicle or trailer. The Flexopower Karoo 230W Portable Solar Panel is no lightweight when it comes to providing off-grid power, though. It still incorporates Flexopower’s tried and tested winning formula of shingled solar cell technology and Teflon encapsulation for efficient and rugged power.
The Karoo 230W is equipped with highly efficient Mono PERC solar cells in a shingled arrangement to reduce space between cells for more power per square meter and a more compact panel. The cells are connected in groups and configured in parallel to reduce losses from partial shading compared to panels with series wired cells. These cells are encapsulated in Teflon (ETFE) – the best encapsulation for portable solar panels.
Features
- Shingled solar cells are connected in groups and configured in parallel, greatly reducing losses from partial shading (other panels typically have their cells wired in series, causing significant losses if part of the panel is shaded).
- Shingled solar cells reduce the spacing between the cells, no silver metal strips running across the panel, reducing the footprint of the panel. Smaller panel = less packing space.
- Teflon (ETFE) module encapsulation: best encapsulation for portable solar panels.
- Securing solar panel: fabric loops allow securing.
- Quality assurance: each solar panel has its own unique serial number making it traceable through the entire manufacturing and QC process.
- Designed by Flexopower and other people with clever brains
