Description
The 5W Mono-Crystalline Solar Panel is a compact, high-efficiency solution ideal for maintaining small batteries, powering low-draw devices, or supporting off-grid electronics. Its 36-cell monocrystalline design ensures stable performance and a strong power output even in varied light conditions.
Built with durable 3.2 mm tempered ARC glass and a corrosion-resistant aluminium frame, this panel is engineered to withstand harsh outdoor environments. With an operational temperature range of –40°C to +85°C and an IP67-rated junction box, it’s suitable for long-term, reliable use in marine, camping, remote monitoring, or DIY solar projects.
Weighing only 0.50 kg and measuring just 245 × 185 × 17 mm, the FSM005W-36M is ultra-portable, easy to integrate into custom builds, and perfect for small-scale renewable energy setups.
- 25-year warranty for 80% of output.
- 10-year limited mechanical warranty
