The 30 w solar panel to do low amp charging 

This 30 w solar panel does smaller battery charging and many other off-grid applications. RichSolar distributes these rigid and strong solar modules. 

They call it the RICH SOLAR 30 W 12 Volt Polycrystalline PV Module. It is a High-Efficiency Polycrystalline solar panel.

The package does not include a charge controller or mounting hardware.

It has an  efficiency of 13.4%.

The waterproof junction box is IP65 rated. The panel comes with a pair of i meter long  12AWG cables attached to it.

They build it with high-quality tempered glass and it comes with a strong frame  that is aluminum. 

These solar modules can last for many years. 

It has a guarantee of 25years.

In mid-summer with 7 hours sunshine, you can generate about 178 Watt.

This is seven multiply by  30 w = 210 Watt.

Take a loss of 15% and you get 210 X 85/100 = 178, 5 Watt

Ignore the 0, 5 and you will have 178 Watts.

With this, it is possible to charge a car battery, but it will go to slow. Better use it for low ampere systems or trickle charging  batteries.

The  Aluminum Frame is Corrosion-Resistant

The aluminum frame is sturdy and protects the solar panel from high winds and heavy loads. 

While manufacturing they drill holes in it to make installation much easier. 

These panels come with high transmission coated glass that is anti-reflective and tempered.

It has certification to withstand difficult environmental conditions.

To mention some advantages

• The 30 w solar panel has a 13.4% efficiency, as well as superb performance during low light conditions. It operates well during cloudy days with a satisfactory output.

• The junction box comes IP65 rated, while it also comes with IP67 rated MC4 connectors.


• The panels are easy to install and to handle  for many different applications.
  


• It is easy to use with  with on or off-grid inverters.


• These modules are aesthetically easy on the eye. 


• The leads  are solid, very good and ready to use.


• The 30 w solar panels are worth the cost per watt. It produces sufficient power.

The not so goods of the 30 w solar panel

The panels do not have mounting hardware.

You also have to buy a separate charge controller for battery charging.

Worth Mentioning

Beware any small shade that can hit the solar panel. The impact is always negative.

Warranty

The 30 w solar panel has a  five year of materials and workmanship guarantee.

Also twenty five year  eighty percent output power.

To conclude

The RICHSOLAR 30 w solar panel Polycrystalline Module is a good choice.

It can provide the type of performance that people require for a specific situation.
