Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Sunforce 36100 100-Watt ProSeries CIGS Solar Panel Module will give you several more reasons to love the sun. It provides the power you need, while helping you save money and protect the environment. This panel is ideal for cabins, recreational vehicles, remote power, back-up power, and 12-Volt battery charging. It even comes with compatible wiring to help you start producing up to 100 Watts of clean, free power in all weather conditions.

Sunforce panels can be easily added to new or existing systems.

Convenient Power That Helps You Save Money and Protect the Environment
The Sunforce 36100 100-Watt ProSeries CIGS Solar Panel Module lets you harness the power of the sun, the most powerful and plentiful source of energy available to us. This inexhaustible supply of power is freely available wherever the sun shines, and gives users the freedom to power their homes, RVs, boats, batteries, and electronic equipment far from civilization or right in town. Solar power can help cut your energy bills by reducing your dependence on the main electrical grid, and can also provide back-up power during outages. Unlike nuclear and fossil fuels, solar power systems are clean and pollution-free, and they require very little maintenance to operate.

Sunforce Solar Panels are effective in areas of both high and lower sun exposure, making them ideal for use in the United States. View Larger

Flexible Power for New or Existing Systems
The Sunforce 36100 100-Watt ProSeries CIGS Solar Panel Module is an ideal addition to both new and existing solar power systems. It is constructed with ultra-tough 3.2mm tempered glass and has a reinforced anodized aluminum frame for extra durability. The frame is pre-drilled for easy installation, and the panel comes with 20 feet of 14-gauge wire for added convenience. These solar panels can be used individually, or they can be connected together to boost power output.

Sunforce CIGS Solar Panels must be connected to a compatible charge controller (sold separately). The charge controller prevents the solar panel from overcharging and damaging connected batteries or electrical systems. It also prevents reverse current from sapping your battery strength at night. Sunforce CIGS Solar Panels can be connected in parallel for 12-Volt systems, or in series for 24- and 32-Volt applications. Please ensure that the components being used in your system are compatible with the individual and total output voltage of your solar panels.

About CIGS Solar Power
Sunforce Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) Solar Panels are high-efficiency photovoltaic modules created with the latest advances in thin-film solar technology. This cutting-edge manufacturing process generates solar panels that provide more consistent power due to better performance in low lighting conditions. Sunforce ProSeries CIGS Solar Panels also incorporate Multijunction technology to allow greater overall absorption of solar energy, leading to higher efficiency. Additionally, the active photovoltaic surface of a CIGS panel degrades more slowly than those made with other solar technologies, resulting in greater durability and longer panel life. This solar panel has a maximum power output of 100-Watts/5.5 Amps at 15V.

Solar panels convert sunlight into an electric current; they do not actually store power. Sunforce Solar Power Panels are primarily used to recharge all types of 12-Volt batteries, including lead-acid automotive batteries, deep-cycle (traction type) batteries, gel-cell batteries, and heavy-duty (stationary type) batteries. When using these solar panels to run appliances on a regular basis, the use of deep-cycle marine batteries is recommended. This type of battery is designed to withstand the frequent charge and discharge cycles associated with solar panel use.

Product Description

Sunforce 100-Watt ProSeries CIGS Solar Panel uses CIGS technology and converts the sunlight into electricity by means of photovoltaic light. This panel is made up of CIGS, a crystalline material which provides consistent power and does not degrade when exposed to sunlight. It has toughened as well as textured ultra glass of 3.2 mm, along with a three layer backing that makes a strong yet lightweight panel. This panel has a reinforced anodized aluminum frame, which is pre drilled for easy mounting. It consists of a high quality junction box with diode protection and is easy to use.
