Has anyone yet seen if these more efficient solar panels are being produced for Motorhome use?
 
Not heard of those.
I guess all you can do is review the listed specs of the usual providers and compare them against price, however as we all know what is claimed performance is never achievable unless you live in a dessert.
I am happy with our existing Mono Photonic Universe Panels, however I see the Renogy ones are on a Black Friday Deal for 400watt plus packages inc MPPT.
Have a browse at their site if you haven't as yet.

Tried to copy link from utube but can’t.

search. undecided with Matt Ferrell
 
Expensive set up on that RV (5th Wheeler):giggle:, all Victron Gear, plus 800 AH Lithiums!o_O
Enjoyable viewing though.(y)

Unfortunately, they still in the lab, not even a prototype out, let alone any mass production any time soon. I was watching the progress since 3-4 years ago, and we still not going to break that 30% efficiency barrier, unless we are in space.

That’s a bummer🤪 I currently have a 160w flexible panel and I know it’s going to fail sometime soon, so planning on replacing when it does with at least 200/300w panels. Craig Solar sell but I have tried asking him questions but he never responds, so may look at Renology, what do you think, do you have a preferred supplier ?
 
At the moment the best is SunPower, LG neon r and neon h, then panasonic Hibrid, then mono shingle and mono half cut.
LG neon r and h have bypass at cell level, meaning every cell is bypassed individually if shaded, allowing the rest of the panel to function at max best parameter for the given light at that time.

Can you fit one of these on? CIGs technology is supposed to be better with shading etc and no glass unlike the semi's

Is that Sunpower UK Raul as when I google them they only seem to supply their own 'Maxeon' panels....! Have you a link please?
 
SunPower is a US product, imported by various companies. Maxeon it’s their flagship series. You will notice they are 96cell panel, same as panasonic HIT arangment. These are the only two manufacturers that I know to build 96cell panel. Good for long cable run and high voltage.
