Traditional solar panels are rigid and often enclosed in tempered glass. The Renogy Flexible Solar Panel is anything but traditional. Perfect for marine use or placement on top of a van or vehicle, the Renogy Lightweight Solar Panel is thin and capable of flexing up to 248 degrees. Highly flexible, this lightweight panel can easily be installed on curved surfaces. This panel can also be used for other various applications, including providing power on a boat or teardrop trailer. Mounting Recommendation: Modules may be mounted using silicone structural adhesive on the backside of the panel. For detailed installation methods, please consult a local contractor for guidance.

Here’s a list of all the equipment required for a functioning off-grid solar system: Solar panels, Solar charge controller, inverter(s), battery, mounting and racking system, wiring cables and fuses.
The performance of a solar panel may be hindered for a number of reasons. Most commonly environmental conditions, such as indirect sunlight, temperature rise, cloudy sky, and dirt and stain build up on the top glass, which can lead to a lower efficiency.
Solar panels can be connected in series or in parallel to meet your electrical circuit size and power demands. In series: the operating voltage output adds up, while the system current output is the same as that of one panel. In parallel: the operating current output will add up, while the system voltage output will be the same as the output of one solar panel. To achieve optimum power output and system rating for your power system, you can use both parallel and series connections.
Generally, solar panels require maintenance because if a lot of dirt or stain piles up on top or in corners, the conversion of sunlight will be affected, resulting in lower efficiency. As for how to clean solar panels, you can use a microfiber cloth, glass cleaner, and water.
