Check Your Controller First
You will need an MPPT charge controller rated for an input voltage above the panel's open circuit voltage. The 42V panel is not compatible with iTechWorld DCDC chargers, which accept a maximum of 32V input. Choose a 22V panel if you are using one. Only connect panels with a matching open circuit voltage. Mounting brackets are sold separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the advantage of a high voltage panel?
A higher voltage panel produces less current for the same power, which means less voltage drop over long runs and smaller wire gauge requirements.
Which charge controller do I need?
An MPPT controller rated for a high input voltage above the panel's open circuit voltage.
Can I mix these with other panels?
Only panels with the same open circuit voltage should be connected together, in series or in parallel.
Does heat affect performance?
Performance decreases in high ambient temperatures, so allow ventilation around the panel.
Do you offer a price match guarantee?
Yes. Found it cheaper elsewhere? Let us know and we will do our best to beat it.
