    Default aurinco solar panels

    Has anyone used these panels ?
    http://www.aurinco.com/solar-electric_us.html

    I did a search, but no luck. They are not inexpensive, but considering their application (sailboats, etc.), they seem like they might work out well...

    Thoughts ?




    Cheers,

    They seem like they are well made for sailboats. I like the flat bottom and flexability. I really like the flat bottom and recessed wires.

    Agreed. They are anything but inexpensive, but they seem to have a lot of advantages. For what we're doing, the "traditional" aluminum box is just too tall and bulky. These are designed to be affixed to the cabin of a sailboat and can even stand to be stepped on...

    Default Aurinco Marine Solar Panels

    Has anyone mounted them on his/her boat or RV since this thread started 2 years ago?
    I am thinking about using them on my boat and would be interested in any feedback.

    They have revised their offerings and have a new 100W panel that looks very interesting, although still not inexpensive...
