    Description

    Keep your fleet running smoothly with the 160W SemiFlex Solar Panel, designed for commercial transportation. This maintenance-free solution reliably charges starting batteries for three- or four-battery vehicles, as well as liftgate batteries, helping fleet managers reduce idle time.

    Paired with PowerFilm’s proprietary charge controller technology, the panel maximizes solar output for 12V battery systems, extending battery life, preventing overcharging, and reducing maintenance costs.

    The Place & Pull double-release liner enables quick, damage-free installation by minimizing panel flex, a common issue with other semi-flexible designs. This protects the high-efficiency Maxeon monocrystalline cells, ensuring exceptional power output and long-term durability.

    With an integrated edge seal, the panel eliminates the need for external edge taping, reducing installation time while ensuring a clean, professional finish that withstands harsh conditions.

    The 160W SemiFlex Solar Panel helps fleets stay on schedule by reducing jumpstarts, extending battery life, and cutting maintenance costs—improving reliability, efficiency, and overall performance.
