KICKASS 12V 300W Super Thin Portable Solar Panel
KickAss Super Thin Solar Panel Range
The all NEW KickAss Super Thin Solar Panel Range is revolutionising the 12V portable solar panel market.
Constructed from A-Grade Monocrystalline Solar Cells, ETFE textured film and a 17mm lightweight aluminium frame, KickAss has created an exceptional solar panel that are designed to travel Australia with you.
But what makes these so KICKASS?
The Frame:
- They are hail-proof and shockproof, making them the perfect solar companion on the toughest Aussie tracks.
- They are 100% weatherproof, including the pre-wired (and bypassable) PWM solar controller mounted on the back of the panel, meaning you can leave them out no matter what the weather.
- They are constructed with stainless steel and aluminium fittings which means you never have to worry about rust.
- They feature a smart-magnet system to keep your panel closed without the need for bulky latches.
- They are constructed using a 1.2mm fibreglass, heat resistant PCB backing to ensure the solar panels remain strong and are resistant to sagging over time.
The Solar Cells:
- They have outstanding solar efficiency rating, up to 20% thanks to the high quality A-Grade Monocrystalline Solar Cells used.
- The panels feature an ETFE textured film compared to alternate panels that use PET films.
Why is ETFE superior to PET?
ETFE solar panels are constructed from seven layers, two above the solar cells, and four below the solar cells. This style of construction enhances overall strength and creates better heat transfer. ETFE solar panels have a better light penetration percentage of 95% and contain fluorine atoms which bond to the EVA layer of the panel, ensuring it will never delaminate or discolour as time passes. The textured finish of ETFE solar panels makes them dirt resistant and self-cleaning, minimising the impact on solar output.
The Solar Controller:
- The included waterproof PWM Solar Controller with anderson style plugs can be connected directly to AGM, Lead Acid, Gel & Calcium batteries.
- The solar controller can easily bypassed if you have an existing solar controller or KickAss DCDC Battery Box with built in MPPT.
The Extras:
- They come in a high quality, heavy duty carry bag with YKK zips.
- They pack down smaller than most metal frame solar panels on the market and weigh over 50% less!
Heres a quick weight comparison between each Super Thin model and their equivalent Glass Panel:
KickAss 150W Glass = 16.5kg vs KickAss 150W Super Thin = 6.55kg
KickAss 200W Glass = 18.3kg vs KickAss 200W Super Thin = 8.75kg
KickAss 300W Glass = 25.0kg vs KickAss 300W Super Thin = 11.15kg
KickAss Super Thin Solar Panels are highly durable, impact-resistant and shatterproof, making them the most heavy duty portable solar option on the market.
