The 180 watt solar panel helps you to independence

The 180 watt solar panel from BougeRV helps you to produce your own energy. Use it for a variety of applications. Make it your first step to becoming another independent electricity consumer.

Free yourself from your monthly energy bill. It is time to stop operating an energy dependant home.

If you invest in the 180 watt solar module you will be moving in the right direction. No need to do it all at once, but this could be the beginning of large savings and big freedom.

It is easy to set up and start producing free and clean power from the sun within a matter of seconds.

The BougeRV  180 Watt 12 volt Monocrystalline panel uses high-efficiency solar cells. It maintains high module conversion efficiency and provides long-term output reliability.

You can use it for residential and commercial purposes.

Apply the BougeRV  180 watt solar panel for off-grid or on the grid applications.

Use it for many off-grid necessities. From remote country places, sheds, light poles, gates, camping, boats, RV’s and many more.

The size of the panel is 26.38 X 58.27 X 1.38 inches.

The attached cables are about  3ft long.

IRP65 rated junction box with MC4 Comparable connectors and built-in blocking diodes are to prevent reverse current flow.

How does the 180 watt solar panel work?

The BougeRV 180-Watt Monocrystalline PV Solar Panel generates free electricity. As soon as you direct it to the sun it is in operation. 

The module produces DC voltage. To use it for residential or commercial purposes you will need a charge controller. The charge controller functions as a regulator. This is to protect the batteries that store the electric power. 

If you have a 6 hour period of sunlight for a day it will produce 6 X 180 = 1080 watt per day.

Operating the 180 watt solar panel

To make the 180 watt solar panels  fully operational we need  a charge controller, battery and an inverter.

Size the charge controller by dividing max watts per hour by total volts.

This is 180/12 = 15 Ampere

Add 25% for safety and you get 15 X 1.25 = a  18.75 Amp charge controller.

A 20 Amp charge controller will be a good choice.

Size the battery by dividing the total watt by volts.

This is 180 watt x 6 hours sunlight ( Depending on your area.) X .85 for losses/ 12 volt x 2 for DOD.

This is 180 x 6 x .85 / 12 x 2 =  153 Amp Hours .

A 160 Ah battery will be a good choice.

Size the inverter by deciding the max watts to be utilized at once.

The max output of the panel is 180 watt. 

Rule of thumb is to use an inverter 1.25 to 1.5 times more than max watts.

In this case we can work with a 180 x 1.5 = 270. A 300 watt inverter will be a good choice.

Maintaining the solar module

The only maintenance that you as a user have to do is making sure the cables are not damaged. This is to ensure a good working condition. 

Cleaning the surface of the a solar panel is also very important. Use a damp cloth to perform this duty. 

A dirty panel leads to a big drop in efficiency. 

A professional person must perform all other maintenance functions. 

Advantages associated with the 180 watt solar panel

• The solar panel is maintenance free. It is necessary though to clean it now and then because too much dirt will reduce efficiency and output.
  

• You can use the 180 watt solar panel for many applications.

• The Built-in blocking diodes are to prevent reverse current flow.

• High transmittance and it comes with low iron tempered glass with a high degree of Stiffness and impact resistance.
  

• Weatherproof for harsh outdoor conditions.

• During weak light and high temperatures, the panel maintains outstanding electrical performance.

• Mounting holes provide easy and quick installation.

• The strong frame ensures withstanding of high winds and heavy snow loads.

• Instructions are clear, installation is easy and it is easy to use.

• The module is environmentally friendly and it comes with a nice design.

• All the electrical connections are weatherproof.

To mention:

Remember there are four key considerations when you check solar panel quality. This is efficiency, warranty, performance, and price. 

When you buy you only get the panel with the leads and nothing else. 

You need a 12volt deep cycle battery. You also need a charge controller and a power inverter to get your power system going.
