Frequently Asked Questions
What connectors are used for the F105 panel?
The F105 uses SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) Connectors. These connectors allow the user to easily disconnect the panels, while being waterproof and dustproof. SAE connectors are considered rugged and widely used in both solar and automotive applications.
What controller do you recommend?
While the F105 can work with the charge controller of your choice (matching the operating conditions), we recommend a MPPT charge controller as it can gain you up to 30% more power than PWM controllers. Choosing the right controller depends on the wattage of the solar array as well as the voltage of the battery bank. For a single panel to charge 12V battery, we recommend the Victron MPPT 75|10 MPPT charge controller.
Are these panels waterproof?
Yes, they can be submerged to 3 feet for over 30 minutes.
Why do you consider these panels rugged?
These panels were originally developed for the United States military, and are made out of a semi-rigid military grade composite. The grommets, which can be used for mounting, can withstand 100 lbs of pull force. The panels have undergone rigorous testing, including impact testing. As an extreme case, each cell was hit with a hammer. While the power decreased to half of the original, the panel was still functional and able to charge a 12V battery.
How does this panel perform in partial shade (areas where the light is changing)?
This panel excels under only partial illumination. Due to its multiple embedded by-pass diodes, our panel can continue to charge a 12V battery even if 80% of it is in the shade.
