SOLAR PANEL KITS
MONOCRYSTALLINE
WARNING
SOLAR PANEL
• For installations with lead acid batteries, avoid sparks or flames near the batteries and
always use proper eye protection
• Given sufficient light, solar panels always generate energy even when they are disconnected
• Accidental 'shorting' of the terminals or wiring can result in sparks causing personal injury or a
fire hazard
• Do not scratch or bend solar panels
• Do not disassemble the solar panel
• When mounting solar panels at a height adhere to all relevant safety regulations
• Do not walk on modules
• Do not attempt to increase module output by concentrating light on its surface with mirrors
• Be sure to use components (cables, fuses, etc) greater than 25% of solar panel's maximum
current ratings
• When storing the Solar panel kit do not pack heavy items on top the Solar panel bag
• Do not disassemble the controller. Take to a qualified person if the unit requires repairing
FEATURE OVERVIEW
SOLAR PANEL
Compact and Powerful – Monocrystalline solar panels are manufactured from a solar cell that
is cast from silicon. These cells are more efficient at producing power than amorphous panels,
so the size of the panel is smaller yet produces greater output power
Lightweight, Foldable Design – Folds up into a self contained bag for easy storage
Scratch Resistant – Panels feature a scratch resistant mat coating for durability
5m Lead & Battery Clips – Fused battery lead makes for trouble free battery connection.
Front pocket for easy storage
Heavy Duty Canvas – Tough canvas material suitable for camping and off-road environments
Metal Support Legs – Legs keep the panels at the optimum angle for maximum performance
Collapsible Tent Pole – The pole feeds through the sewn in loops to keep the panel rigid
when set-up
Reinforced Eyelets – Reinforced eyelets allow you to secure the panels using tent pegs, or hang
the panels vertically

- Page 6 INSTALLATION & CONNECTION STEP 1 Locate the panel in the best position Locate the panel in a position where it is exposed to the sun for the majority of the day. For Best results use a northern orientation. The panel will function in the horizontal or hung position, however for best performance tilt the panels so they directly face the sun.
- Page 7 3 Lights Grand Total So the SPM80K solar panel kit produce 5.0 Amps an hour, this should be more than enough. You might find that during cloudy weather you will have to charge the battery by running your car for half an hour every second or third day.
