Wow! You not only ran over it, but on a gravel road where it could have gotten punctured! Impressive! 500W is a very respectable amount of solar for most applications. I'll look into it. Thanks for the video. I like your style!

I want to do this but i know nothing about solar, it sounds like a foreign language to me. I try to educate myself watching 👀 videos but i just don't understand it... I thi k I'm gonna just go with a power bank like bluetti or ecoflow with the most volt per panel i can find to fit on the roof of a van

How does the efficiency of these panels compare to hard mono panels?
@NoLimitVanLife Жыл бұрын
I’ve noticed with panels that the efficiency on the stat sheet doesn’t tell you the truth. The only way for me to find out is to lay them out under the same sun. The CIGS panels are slightly larger than silicone but they’re also lighter and I don’t have a bezel. My guess would be nothing beats the throughput of a large house panel because they’re higher voltage but without testing it who knows. Maybe using a light meter would help but I’d love to layout the panels together for a video.
@antigroundhogday Жыл бұрын
@@NoLimitVanLife yeah, their ability is attractive but before investing I'd like to see the output of them vs. a regular panel. Also, I probably won't be first to jump in and wait on if they delaminate over time. Best of luck with them!

@NoLimitVanLife Жыл бұрын
If you did go through the trouble to create some sort of sheet to stick them on, that will have a half an inch to an inch of space how about that it will help keep the van cool when the sun shining on it but if you’re somewhere, where it’s often cool, then maybe you want the sun to heat up the van I don’t know But I would totally just stick them on there. The more difficult question is whether to run the wires from the middle back front.

@NoLimitVanLife2 жыл бұрын
To produce 700 W most days you’ll need six or seven 200 W panels which should keep a small air conditioner going. if it’s only about 80° outside you’ll need way less power. they are very sticky so they won’t blow off. These are forever panels but if they must be removed they should be scraped off to prevent damage. Hey body shop has chemicals that will dissolve the sticky gummy material
