Hassle-Free Returns & Exchanges

Returns

We strive for a stress-free, hassle-free return process.

In order for the process to take place as smoothly as possible, we ask all customers to observe the following requirements.

1. We have a 30-day return policy, which means customers have 30 days after the date the item shipped to request a return. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept returns beyond 30 days after the item shipped.

2. Most items are easily returned within 30 days of the shipment date. To initiate a return, please contact us at returns@outboundpower.com. If the return is accepted, we will send the customer a return shipping label as well as instructions on how and where to send the package. Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted.

3. To be eligible for a return, the item must be in the same condition as it was received and in its original packaging.

4. We may ask for confirmation of certain details as to why an item is being returned for verification or if a warranty request is involved.

5. Charging a restocking fee is a B.S. way for some companies to make money off your return.  We do not charge restocking fees.

6. The customer may be responsible for return shipping costs depending on the product. Whenever possible, we strive to cover the return shipping fee.

7. To assure your refund, please use a trackable mail service. We are not responsible for lost or missing packages.

Refunds

Upon the receipt of the return package, the item will be examined and a full refund will be issued to the original method of payment. A refund receipt will be emailed to the email address provided during the original purchase.

Refunds are processed as soon as the refund request is approved - that means that the money leaves our account immediately. If a refund has not yet been received, first check the bank account again. Then contact the payment method company as it may take some time before the refund is officially posted. We have seen some credit card companies take up to 30 days to show that the refund has been put back on the card.

Exchanges

The fastest way to exchange an item is to order it separately when the return is accepted.  Depending on inventory availability, we may be able to initiate a direct order of the exchange product after the original item is returned.

Cancellations

Cancellations are accepted up to the point of shipment. If the order has shipped, the customer is responsible for return shipping charges. Refunds are only issued to the original purchase method.

Damages

The customer must inspect the packaging on arrival.  If damage is present, the customer should make note of it when signing for delivery. If the item arrives damaged, the customer must send photos to returns@outboundpower.com and we will process an insurance or warranty claim on the customer's behalf.

This solar panel combines high efficiency mono PERC cells with Half-Cell and 10-Busbar technologies to improve the electrical performance and power output of your solar array system. Generate renewable energy, reduce electricity bills and carbon footprint.

Since 2010, Renogy has gained rich experience in designing and manufacturing the most efficient and robust solar panels and the most complete off-grid solar system. A focus on testing, quality control, and traceability ensures our solar power system offers an industry-leading warranty and reliability guarantee. Invest in yourself by going Renogy. This will be your most economical long-term investment yet.

  • A High-Powered Module: The Renogy Monocrystalline 2-piece solar panel is engineered with high-efficiency PERC (Passivated Emitter and Rear Contact) cells, capturing more light to achieve 22.8% conversion efficiency. Resulting in higher performance than most conventional panels, Renogy's 550-watt panels provide more output per surface area.
  • High Tolerance: Renogy's high-powered 550 watt solar panels are made with half-cell technology. This half-cut panel is more tolerant of shading on any part of the cell and performs excellently in low light situations due to the increased number of cells receiving more sunlight.
  • Space and Installation Optimization: A great option for large-scale installations, each solar panel can produce up to 2750 Wh of electricity per day and requires fewer installations per panel on your rooftop.
  • Reliable and Durable: Corrosion-resistant aluminum frame provides extended outdoor use that ensures the panel can last for decades. The IP68 rated junction box and solar connectors can withstand dirt, dust, debris, and water splashes.
  • Federal Tax Credit: Claim up to 26% of your home's new solar system costs (both equipment and installation) for a tax credit.

Frequently-Asked Questions

1. Is each panel 550W or a whole combination? What about the size and weight?

550W per panel. The dimension of one panel is 89.7 x 44.6 x 1.4 inches, and the weight is 62.8 lbs.

2. How many kWh a day does this solar panel produce?

If your solar panels are exposed to 5 hours of direct sunlight per day, it can provide an average of 2200-2750 Watt-hours (2.2 kWh - 2.75 kWh) of electricity (depending on sun availability).

3.Why choose this high-powered 550W module rather than 5-6 100W solar panels?

High-powered solar panels are primarily used for utility-scale systems, solar power plants, solar farms, residential and commercial applications. Compared with 100 Watt solar panels, these high-powered 550 Watt modules provide maximum power generation for your limited roof space. They also allow the use of fewer mounting systems, including wiring cables, screws, or mounting brackets.

4. Can these panels be used on a grid-tied system?

Yes, they can. These high-powered 550 Watt solar panels work with on-grid, off-grid, and hybrid systems. But please note that when using them on on-grid and hybrid systems, we recommend that you contact a licensed solar installer familiar with on-grid/hybrid setups.

On-Grid solar system means solar power equipment (array or solar panel) is connected to the utility grid.

Off-Grid solar system refers to a system that is not connected to the grid. An Off-Grid system is not affected by grid blackouts.

A Hybrid system is when your solar panels remain connected to the grid's power lines and have a backup battery system to store excess power.

5. How should I connect solar panels to my electrical circuit (series vs parallel)?

Solar panels can be connected in series or in parallel to meet your electrical circuit size and power demand.

Connecting solar panels in series will have the effect of adding up their operating voltage output, while system current output will be the same as that for one panel.

While connecting solar panels in parallel will have a different effect. The output current will add up to be the system output current, while system output voltage will be the same as the output voltage of one solar panel.

To meet your power system's optimum power output and system rating, you can use parallel and series connections.

6. Do these panels have pre-drilled holes on the back?

Yes, they have. The pre-drilled holes help you to install the solar panel quickly and securely.

7. Can this solar panel be adapted to a 12V Marine Battery or 48V Lithium Battery?

Yes, it can. The optimum operating voltage of this 550W solar panel is 41.97V. So it's suitable to use for charging your 12V Marine Battery and 48V Lithium Battery (by connecting at least two solar panels in series). Please note that you need to connect the solar panel(s) to a Charge Controller supporting a 12V or 48V system.

8. What do I need to have to complete my off-grid solar power system?

Here’s a list of all the equipment required for a functioning off-grid solar system:

Solar Panels, Solar Charge Controller, Inverter(s), Battery, Mounting and Racking System, Wiring Cables, and Fuses.
