AllSpark 120w Flexible Solar Panel / Pre-Assembled with Corflute Backing Sheet

SKU: AS-120SPFLPCG2
Regular price $459.00 inc GST

SUNPOWER MAXEON 3 SOLAR PANEL. THE PANEL BOASTS SEVERAL FEATURES, INCLUDING:

  1. The SunPower Maxeon 3 Cells are the highest efficiency cells available on the market, with a minimum efficiency of 24.4%. This means that the panel is able to produce more power for its size compared to other panels.

  2. The Maxeon 3 Cells are highly shade and temperature tolerant, outperforming other panels in overcast, partial shade, or high temperature conditions.

  3. The panel is made with a premium Japanese ETFE laminate, which is UV resistant for 25+ years and water, dirt, and salt resistant.

  4. The panel features SunPower strain relief cell connectors, which allow for panel expansion and contraction due to temperature changes.

  5. The panel comes with a pre-fitted corflute backing with 3M VHB tape, which allows for easy installation.

  6. The panel comes with a 5-year warranty.

  7. Supplied with 10A MC4 Inline Solar Fuse: The panel is supplied with a 10A MC4 inline solar fuse for added safety and protection.

These panels come pre-assembled and ready to install!
Complete with UV stable polycarbonate twinwall corflute backing sheet and 3M Very high bond (VHB) 4991 tape, making installation a breeze. Rated for 125 deg C and 150km/h winds. These are only suitable for installation on flat surfacesSimply wash the surface, wipe over with isopropyl alcohol (available from hardware stores), peel off the backing and stick down.

NO cutting
NO waiting for curing
NO messy glue


SunPower Maxeon 3 cells - SunPower cells are the global leader in cell efficiency and are the most shade and heat tolerant cells on the market, meaning a rogue leaf or branch across your panels or summer time temperatures wont lead to a dramatic loss of power.

Ultra Premium ETFE laminate - most flexible panels are produced using a cheap PET laminate, the same sort or plastic type layer used to make water bottles, ever seen what happens to a water bottle left in the sun?? PET discolours and breaks down, reducing the ability of the sun to reach your cells. ETFE is designed to withstand the harsh UV rays ensuring your cells can perform at their peak for years to come - UV stable for 25 years

24.4% cell efficiency - the more efficient a cell works, the more power is produced per square meter of space. This means that for the physical size of the panel, you wont find a panel which produces more power than these. Seen a smaller panel claiming a higher wattage?? Check out our articles here and here to ensure you're really getting what you're paying for.

SunPower strain relief cell connectors - allows for panel expansion and contraction due to temperature changes, preventing premature failure of panels due to extremes of temperature (one of the major causes of solar panel failures).

5 YEAR MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY

2 bypass diodes - should your panel end up in heavy shade (maybe if you leave camp for the day), the dual bypass diodes will ensure the cells continue to work to their optimum levels, with each side of the panel working independently. 

Solid copper backing and thick connectors - ensuring maximum power production as cells are not connected using thin, weak strips like most panels which can break or corrode and the front face of the panel is not covered with wire lines (which reduces the surface area exposed to the sun).

Light weight (3.4kg) - alternative to rigid, glass panels, and are perfect for use on the roof of caravans, campers and roof top tents where weight is always a concern for most vehicles. 

Important Installation Requirements
Flexible panels are designed to be flexible for the initial installation application, then stay fixed in that position. They are not suitable for continuous movement and flexing. They must stay fixed, have 100% of the surface area supported and properly connected to the mounting surface, and be wired/fused correctly. AllSpark 120w flexible solar panels run at 19.8V (Vmp). SunPower cells have a maximum system voltage of 45V and as such means 2 x 120w panels can be connected in series only, to keep within the 45v maximum system voltage.  3 in series is not permitted and will damage the panels.  2 in series and two sets for this connected in parallel is also suitable (total of 4 panels maximum).  A MAXIMUM of 3 x 120w panels can be connected in parallel in a single string.  More panels would required additional strings and separate MPPT solar controllers.

Each panel in the string must be protected by a MC4 10A solar fuse. These are available in our store here. If you have more than one panel in the string, you must also have a DC isolator on the cable running to the MPPT solar controller. For this model, a 20A circuit breaker is suitable for 1 or 2 panels, or increase to 25A for 3 panels.

Custom cabling can also be provided upon request - need extra cabling to run to your controller? Need branch connectors to link up multiple panels? This can be organised making installation a breeze!
