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. This panel
comes with compatible wiring, accessories and a voltage tester to help
you start producing up to 80 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 39810 80-Watt High-Efficiency Polycrystalline 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.

Flexible Power for New or Existing Systems
The Sunforce 39810 80-Watt High-Efficiency Polycrystalline Solar Panel
Module is an ideal addition to both new and existing solar power
systems. It comes with a voltage tester, wiring and mounting
accessories to make installation easy. These solar panels can be used
individually, or they can be connected together to boost power output.
Sunforce High-Efficiency Polycrystalline 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
High-Efficiency Polycrystalline 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 Polycrystalline Solar Power
Polycrystalline silicon is a material consisting of thin wafers that
are cut from a silicon crystal which has grown in several directions.
This advanced surface texturing process provides polycrystalline solar
panels with a higher power output than amorphous panels of the same
dimensions, and makes them more cost and space-effective. These
individual wafers are assembled into panels that are covered by
durable, weatherproof tempered glass. Thanks to their efficiency and
durability, these solar panels require virtually no maintenance once
installed. This solar panel has a maximum power output of
80-Watts/4.67-Amps.
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.
Customer Reviews
80 watts of pure power
As my first venture into solar energy this has been a nice panel.
I've had it about a month. I paired it with a "Xantrex Technologies
802-1500 XPower Powerpack 1,500-Watt Portable Backup Power System" and
a "Sunforce 60032 30 Amp Digital Charge Controller". The panel is 12
volt, 4.6 amps though at this point I'm seeing up to 13.6 volts and 5
amps. I suspect over time as the panel weakens it will be more toward
the 12 volt, 4.6 amp. The panel was simple to hook up and came with
what was needed. I did go purchase new wire as I needed more distance
for where I mounted it. I'm able to charge the battery from dead to
full in 2 days. If I were to rotate the panel through the day I feel I
could fully charge in 1 day.
Nice for backup charging and learning. For any real application you would need a ton of these though.
Works as it should. Easy to install.
I purchased 4 of these solar panels. They were easy to setup, and
have been working just fine for the last month. They have been
operating at near the specified 80 watts each which is pretty good for
December in Utah.
Great panel
Took the panel to Death Valley for a few days to charge my trailer
battery and while I ran laptop and iPod stereo for hours during the
night, it quickly recharged the battery the next morning. Built a solid
stand/rack to keep it upright using pvc pipe that's easy to
disassemble, secure and lock. At 80 watts, it's just one panel where
some 65watt units have 3 panels.
