It measures 82.2 x 13.7 x 0.06 inches, weighs 4.63 lbs and comes with adhesive tape already on the back, so you peel off the liner and press it into place with no brackets or drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe long, narrow shape suits RV roofs, teardrop trailers, boat decks, bimini tops and boat canopies where space is long and slim. Because the panel can be rolled up, it also works as a portable panel at camp. It comes as a single panel or in packs of 2, 3 and 4.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBougeRV Yuma 100W CIGS Thin-Film Flexible Solar Panel with Tape Long Version Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCIGS Thin-Film Cells Bend Without Cracking\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCIGS is a thin-film technology that uses semiconductor layers to turn sunlight into electricity. BougeRV says the cells bend up to 360° without cracking and don't develop the microcracks that rigid crystalline cells can. There's no glass on the panel, so there's nothing to shatter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e12 Bypass Diodes for Partial Shade\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePartial shade is common on vehicles and boats. The panel has 12 bypass diodes, which BougeRV says minimize power loss under partial shade, so it keeps delivering steady energy under shade or overcast skies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePeel-and-Stick Tape Mounting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo long strips of adhesive tape and a strip at the junction box end come pre-applied to the back. Peel off the protection tape in order and press the panel onto a smooth surface. BougeRV says the adhesive holds at highway speeds without mechanical fasteners, which keeps your roof free of holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThin, Light and Low Profile\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 0.06 inches thick and 4.63 lbs (2.1 kg), the panel adds little weight and sits low on the surface to reduce wind resistance. It needs no aluminum frame or stand, which suits weight-sensitive spots like boat canopies and bimini tops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIP68 Connections and Weather Ratings\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBougeRV rates the panel, its solar connectors and its junction box IP68 against rain, snow and dust. The panel is rated for 2400 Pa wind resistance and a 5400 Pa snow load, with operating temperature limits of -40°F to +185°F (-40°C to +85°C).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWalkable and Rollable\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBougeRV says the glass-free panel is durable enough to be walked on in high-traffic areas of yachts and campers. It can also be rolled up for storage and transport. Always roll it solar side out, because rolling it solar side in will damage the panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReal-World Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRV and camper roofs.\u003c\/strong\u003e The 13.7 inch width suits narrow runs of roof where a wider panel won't fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTeardrop and travel trailers.\u003c\/strong\u003e Stick the panel onto a curved trailer roof with no frame, brackets or drilled holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBoats.\u003c\/strong\u003e Mount it on decks, canopies or bimini tops where weight matters and shade from rigging is common.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePortable camp power.\u003c\/strong\u003e Roll the panel up for the trip and lay it out at camp to charge a power station.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePractical Comparison\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eYuma CIGS Versus a Rigid Glass Panel\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBougeRV's manual sets out the trade-offs. A rigid crystalline panel can't bend, needs racking and mounting hardware, can shatter and is heavier on the roof. The Yuma panel bonds directly to the surface, bends to fit curves and has no glass. A rigid panel can be tilted toward the sun on a bracket, so it may suit a flat rack or ground mount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eYuma CIGS Versus a Monocrystalline Flexible Panel\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBougeRV notes that monocrystalline cells are virtually inflexible and prone to cracking. The Yuma's CIGS cells bend up to 360°, and its bypass diodes help in partial shade. With a 17% cell efficiency, check the 82.2 x 13.7 inch footprint against your space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eOne Panel Versus a 2, 3 or 4 Panel Pack\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single panel adds 100W. The packs give you matching panels that you can wire in series to raise voltage or in parallel, with a solar parallel connector, to raise current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuyer Guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePlan Your Space and Surface\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe solar cell efficiency is 17%, so this panel spreads its 100W over a long, slim area. Measure your roof or deck for the 82.2 x 13.7 inch footprint, and choose a smooth surface for the adhesive. The 33.5 inch (850 mm) 12AWG leads exit at one short end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat It Can Charge\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBougeRV lists a solar power station, a lead-acid battery or a lithium battery. Batteries need a solar charge controller; a power station doesn't. Any cable with MC4 connectors can connect to the panel.
