136 watt peel 'n' stick solar panel kit
With two of these ingenious UniSolar laminate panels you can elegantly supply power to a narrowboat, caravan or motor home throughout the year. 136 watts should provide all the electricity an average user needs in the summer months (as long as you don't go over the top with power-hungry appliances), and even in winter will run energy-efficient lighting, radios and water pumps without having to resort to charging from a generator or engine.
The panels can be stuck to any suitable flat or gently curved surface. They have an extremely low profile of only 4mm, and the panels exit through the bottom of the panel so there is no unsightly junction box to spoil the aesthetically pleasing looks of this remarkable panel. They will churn out power for years with no maintenance at all!
To see the panels in situ, take a look at the pictures of "Hornblower" or "Scandal", both Cambridge-based narrow boats.
This kit comes with a top-of-the-range Prostar 15A MorningStar regulator to maintain and control battery voltage. Data sheets for the panel and regulator are available on the individual product pages. We have written a short guide to installing these panels on narrowboat and caravan roofs, which you may like to browse before purchasing.
The PVL 136 watt solar panel kit includes:
- 2 x Unisolar PVL68 solar panels fitted with 3m cables for connection to solar regulator
- Prostar 15A solar regulator
- 2 x 1.5m cables with appropriate connectors for connection between regulator and battery, and an in-line fuse to protect the system
Our kits are supplied as standard with a 3m length of cable between the panel and the regulator, and a 1.5m length of cable between the regulator and the battery connectors. If you require different lengths, please advise us by email when you order so we can make up appropriate cables. We make no extra charge for cables up to 5m between panel and regulator, or 2m between regulator and battery. There may be a small surcharge for longer lengths.
