Solar Panels
Solar provides energy for effective battery charging, an off grid solution for all leisure vehicles.
The crystalline solar panel range we install encompasses both monocrystalline meaning a “single crystal” and polycrystalline meaning “many crystal” solar panels.
Mono or Poly? there are many debates as to which one is best but here are the facts
Monocrystalline are temperature coefficient, which means that as the panels get hotter they will typically outperform polycrystalline, the monocrystalline process produces higher efficiency cells so you get more power onto the same surface area, however due to developments in solar cell technology monocrystalline and polycrystalline are becoming more and more alike and from our own tests here at Sunshine Solar in the UK, performance levels are now so similar that the answer to the question Mono or Poly could be more to do with aesthetic personal preference and solar panel size rather than performance.
Whether being used to supply battery charging energy for caravans, motorhomes or campervans, they will prove to be an excellent, practical addition.
A charge controller receives the energy from the solar panel and distributes this energy to your leisure battery, keeping it in constant tip top condition and ready for use.
We are also able to install a dual charge controller, perfect for motorhomes, allowing the charge of both, the leisure battery & vehicle starter battery. If you have experienced a flat battery in your motorhome after a period of non use, then this kit is essential.
