These 6V 9W panels come to us from Voltaic Systems, makers of fine solar-powered bags and packs. They are waterproof, scratch resistant, and UV resistant.

Using a high efficiency monocrystalline cell and outputting 6V at ~1.5A via 3.5mm x 1.1mm DC jack connector, they are a nice upgrade to the 2W or 3W panels we have been carrying. The substrate is an aluminium / plastic composite, specifically designed to be strong and lightweight.

They’re very high quality andsuggested for projects that will be exposed to the outdoors. These come with 4 plastic mounting screws which makes it easy to attach the panel, even to fabric!

Please note – these panels may have dents or light scratches in the epoxy from shipping/storage, it does not affect the functionality of the panel. We cannot guarantee they will be perfectly smooth.
