OVERVIEW

Lightweight, compact, and rugged, the REDARC 160W monocrystalline solar blanket is the ultimate in portable solar power.

Our flexible and convenient solar blankets are packed with more value than ever, can be folded up into a neat package and offer flexibility that’s not available with fixed or folding panels. Drape it over the bonnet or windscreen, lay it on the ground or hang it from the side of your awning. When it’s time to hit the road, just fold it up and pack it away.

Best portable solar

REDARC’s monocrystalline solar blankets are constructed from heavy duty canvas and covered in an anti-reflective and scratch resistant ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) coating, improving efficiency and making them extremely durable, perfect for off-road conditions.

No longer do you need to worry about shadows wiping out your panel’s efficiency. Bypass diodes connect each solar window, minimising the impact of shadows making them the best solar panels for camping.

Solar blanket for overlanding and RV travel

With genuine industry standard Anderson™ SB™50 connectors, setting up camp is easier than ever. These high-quality Anderson™ plugs are simple and fast to connect with no screw terminals and no risk of poor connections from frayed wires or loose terminals – just plug and play!

Designed to charge 12V Automotive, Marine and Recreational Vehicle battery systems, the 160W monocrystalline solar blanket will provide extra battery charge to power 12V equipment.

REDARC recommends the purchase of a REDARC Solar Regulator, which is essential to ensure the correct charge is supplied safely and efficiently and will protect batteries from over charging. Minimum 20A Solar Regulator is required for the 160W Monocrystalline solar blanket.

Check out the kit version which includes a 20A solar regular and 16FT Anderson cable.
