Its dual-layer fiberglass build weighs 4.6 lbs (2.1 kg), is 2.5 mm thick and bends up to 270°, and BougeRV lists it as compatible with 12V and 24V systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Arch Pro is built for places where shade, weight and curved surfaces get in the way: boat decks, RV roofs, rooftop tents, Jeeps and camper vans. It's also made for off-grid cabins and tiny homes. Buy one panel or a 2, 3 or 4 panel pack, and use it with a charge controller and battery or with a power station that takes MC4 input.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBougeRV Arch Pro 100W 12V\/24V N-Type TOPCon Flexible Solar Panel Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e27 Bypass Diodes Limit Shade Losses\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePartial shade from a mast, roof rack or tree branch is common on boats and vehicles. The Arch Pro has 27 bypass diodes, and BougeRV says they reduce power loss under partial shade by isolating only the shaded cells, so the rest of the panel keeps producing in mixed light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e25% Efficient N-Type TOPCon Cells\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 16BB N-type TOPCon cells have a rated conversion efficiency of 25%. BougeRV says they offer higher efficiency, a longer lifespan and better reliability than traditional PERC panels, which helps when you're working with limited roof or deck space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e16-Busbar Layout\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSixteen busbars shorten the path current travels across each cell, reduce resistance losses and spread current more evenly.

The panel bends up to 270° to fit curved surfaces of different radii, from boat decks to RV roofs and Jeep tops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLight and Thin at 4.6 Pounds\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe panel measures 38.3 x 24.1 x 0.1 inches (974 x 612 x 2.5 mm) and weighs 4.6 lbs, so it's easy to carry, handle and install, and it adds little weight to a vehicle or boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBuilt for Weather\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBougeRV rates the panel IP68 and states it withstands wind loads of 2400 Pa and snow loads of 5400 Pa.

The Arch Pro is 2.5 mm thick, bends to follow a curve and mounts with adhesive, so it fits boats and vehicles where a frame won't. If you have a flat rack and want to tilt panels toward the sun, a rigid panel may be simpler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eArch Pro Versus a PERC Flexible Panel\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBougeRV designed the Arch Pro around N-type TOPCon cells, which it says deliver higher efficiency, longer lifespan and better reliability than traditional PERC cells. Add 16 busbars and 27 bypass diodes, and the Arch Pro is aimed at real conditions where shade and limited space are common.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eOne Panel Versus a 2, 3 or 4 Panel Pack\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne panel adds 100W for a small setup. The packs give you matching panels to wire in series for higher voltage or in parallel, with a solar parallel connector, for higher current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuyer Guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eChoosing a Controller\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe panel's max power voltage (Vmp) is 32.4V and its open circuit voltage (Voc) is 37.8V. BougeRV's manual says to choose a solar charge controller based on system power, voltage and current, with an input rating that exceeds the array's, to avoid hot spot damage and lost efficiency. Make sure the controller's rated current and input voltage range can handle the total output of all your panels, and size cables for the current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMounting the Panel\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean the panel and roof with water and a damp cloth. Apply multi-purpose polyurethane sealant\/adhesive in strips at least 0.25 inches (0.6 cm) wide every 6.5 inches (17 cm) on the back, leaving space for airflow. Press the panel down firmly with foam, add adhesive to the windward edge and let it sit for 48 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThis May Be A Good Fit If\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour roof or deck gets partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou need a panel that bends to a curve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight matters on your boat or vehicle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou're building a 12V or 24V system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat Are the Electrical Ratings?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaximum power is 100W. Vmp is 32.4V, Imp is 3.1A, Voc is 37.8V and Isc is 3.2A, each ±5%.

Any cable with an MC4 connector can connect to the panel's 33.5 inch (850 mm) 14AWG leads. Adapter cables for Anderson, DC5521, DC5525 or DC7909 inputs are not included, and no charge controller is needed with a power station.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Is My Output Below 100W?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLight intensity, panel angle, surface temperature above 77°F, shade and dust all reduce output. BougeRV's manual puts PWM controller conversion efficiency at 75% and MPPT above 90%, and a power station's PV input limits also cap what it accepts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat Warranty Does It Have?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBougeRV lists a 5-year material and workmanship warranty for the Arch Pro.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x BougeRV Arch Pro 100W 12V\/24V N-Type TOPCon Flexible Solar Panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2 PCS, 3 PCS and 4 PCS options include that number of panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShade-Tolerant Power for Curved Surfaces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BougeRV Arch Pro 100W 12V\/24V N-Type TOPCon Flexible Solar Panel pairs 25% efficient 16BB cells and 27 bypass diodes with a 4.6 lb fiberglass build that bends to fit boats, RVs and rooftop tents.
