So, I've searched but not found an answer (apologies in advance if there is a thread about it).

My MH doesn't have a great deal of 'flat' space (Ixeo Time 586), so a typical install seems difficult, if not impossible - but what about the flexible panels? Would it be possible to fit them to the 'hump' on the roof?

If not, any suggestions as to where I can fit 1 or 2? :)

Is it possible to take a picture of your roof to give folk an idea of space available?

I believe you have a similar hump in the roof to my 680g but a much shorter flat area?

Any that will fit the gaps - 2 x 125W

Mine were just a fit but they make it difficult to clean the roof now I can't get out the roof light.

@ChaosToo we have similar roof constraints on our Ixeo Time 590 (same size I think) and have fitted an 80w Flexi panel to our "hump" with no issues on size, could probably have gone larger if we wanted to.

Short while after a gap of many years.

Yes - flexible CIGS panels are the obvious choice both in size and superior technical abilities and yes they are likely to fit well on the bump.

Have a look - I also have a discount code I can give you if you PM me :)

Those panels are semi- flexible ones and not to be confused with true flexible panels that I have given the link to. They also look like mono or polycrystalline which are prone to hairline cracking as the crystals can not actually be bent.
