How to choose a right solar panel for camping?

Now a solar panel for camping has been a reliable power source in the outdoors. Do you have the confusion about how to choose a right one? Here let’s do a simple description about each type of solar panel for camping. Hope this can help you do a quick and basic review.

1, CIGS series

A CIGS solar panel for camping is ultrathin and rollable. It can be suitable to the most load-sensitive structures and very smart for carrying. It is also the best panel for working under weak sunlight. But due to its special material, there is risk for environmental pollution and causing its short lifespan. Also its cost is higher than others. So that if you do not need the most features like being load or low light sensitive, it is unnecessary to buy such a CIGS solar panel for camping.

2, Glass laminated series

The glass solar panel for camping should be the most common one. The cheapest price, most excellent weather resistance, and longest service time, it is actually a great wonderful option. But a glass solar panel for camping is heavy, large size, and fragile. So that it is always trouble for your carrying and installing. You may pay extra costs for labor installation or the tools for drilling and fixing on the camper roof. Sometimes there is also the accident as glass burst.

3, Flexible series

The flexible solar panel for camping is designed to be thin, light weight, and bendable to be more practical for the load-sensitive structures and uneven surfaces. There will be no those inconveniences again like the glass solar panel for camping. You can just use the double-sided tape, cable, grommets, zip ties, Velcro or others to finish the fixing. This is also very easy for you to unfix the flexible solar panel for camping, if you want to change its used place.

Thus a general flexible solar panel for camping on market is just semi flexible. It can be only bended to be around 30 degrees or little more. If over this or long time bending, the solar cell will be micro-cracked and cause short service time of the whole flexible solar panel for camping. We recommend a new type of GGXingEnergy® full flexible solar panel for camping. The update is the full flexible solar panel for camping is protected by a special fiber material to protect the solar cell. Never you bend or shake the full flexible solar panel for camping, the solar cell will never be micro cracked. Its flexibility can reach 360 degrees.

4, Foldable series

A foldable solar panel for camping is combining several small pieces of solar panels together to get a small size, which will be super easy for taking and with high portability. No needing any installation, just open the foldable solar panel for camping, close it and store it under your camper desk after finishing the use. You can almost use it at anywhere when sunlight is available. Its weight is around half of a same power of glass solar panel, but with over two times higher cost.

The two main crafts for a foldable solar panel for camping is cloth sewing and one-piece laminating.

The one-piece laminated foldable solar panel for camping is with more upscale appearance and better performance for outside harsh weather condition. But the cloth sewing one will be more durable if the solar panel for camping is fallen.
