Polycrystalline 50W 12V Solar Panel
ALT50-12P
altE solar panels are made for use in OFF THE GRID applications. So if you've ever been interested in getting your electricity from a natural resource, versus the electric company, this 50 watt panel is a great place to start. A 50 watt solar panel can be used to top off a deep cycle battery, so it can stay charged and ready for use. And this solar panel is lightweight enough (only 10 pounds!) and portable, so you can go mobile with it - take it camping, to the beach - wherever you need remote power! Additionally, they are manufactured in accordance to ISO9001 standards and certified by IEC and CSA/US to assure electrical safety compliance.
One of the biggest advantages of solar energy is FREE ELECTRICITY! You'll think it's the coolest thing since sliced bread - once you start - you won't be able to stop. This 50 watt solar panel consists of 72 polycrystalline solar cells, and can works in temperatures as low as 49 degrees below zero and as high as 185 degrees Fahrenheit - this wide range gives you flexibility to install in any climate. And with the sturdy aluminum frame, and 3.2mm tempered glass, the durability of this module allows for long term usage and worry-free off-grid living.
Take a look at these videos to the right. They are super helpful and informative - you'll learn how solar energy works, how to wire solar panels, the best orientation, and see and entire off-grid solar system demonstations. altE is the best place to start learning about the many advantages of solar energy. We're here to help you make renewable do-able!
