Is this 40 watt panel sealed against the elements on the solar panel side? and are all of your panels like this?

It is sealed and protected from water and all of our solar panels like that. Thanks.

It's translucent, not completely clear. Solar panels should work trough it but probably not as good though.

Hi Nigel - You'll have to let me know how your solar panel / LED shed light project turns out. I've learned much and had fun with my 50W setup. Let me know how yours ends up. ~Bryan ;-)

Dear customer, the solar panel is on the top of the item. It is facing upward. The sun still can get on it if it's from the number side. Thank you.

Without taking it apart I would say dampness would cause dammage internally. It looked sealed but I wouldn't trust it. In fact I used it inside a car and laid it on the dash and running the cables out the door frame and to the battery. Most solar pannels need extra sealing around the frame work to asure it works outside in the elements. When in doubt seal it! make your own warranty! Better safe than sorry...

Dear customer, it is Monocrystalline solar panel. We will revise the description shortly.

Completely. Like all modern solar panels there is an electrical box on the back of the panel where the pigtails come out of, but as long as you dont have it mounted upside down it will be fine.... I have 4 currently outside in the rain etc. 2 on solar electric fence chargers and 2 on a solar space heater, those two have been outside for over a year now in the harsh Maine environment and so far they are holding up just the same as my larger pqnels on my house.

The solar panel is on top. The only one I found with the panel integeral to the unit.I have it installed on the West wall about 10 feet up. This is a two-story brick home with a big tree in front, overlapping this aide.I'd estimate that it only see's direct sun for ~3 hrs per sunny day.It worked immediatly. I've been showing my neoghbor, and he bought two for the West wall of his house.NO complaints.... Well made...You'll be very plesased !

It's the panel (looks just like the pictures) which has a small box on the backside where the two cables come out (the positive cable and the negative cable). The cable had the 'solar' standard electrical connectors at the ends.Packed in a custom styrofoam box in the cardboard sleeve box. Pretty much what you see is what you get, just the panel.

in full sun i would say yes (cloudy day mabey not) there is 70 watters for a few dollars more than this one.

Yes. That is correct. There is an included storage/carry bag which is removed prior to setting up the panels. The two panels are connected together and unfold from storage position for active usage. Additionally the connected supports for these panels are positioned allowing best choice of solar exposure.

YUP, its a solar panel. you would need a 24v controller capable to hook up to 130w so its under 10 amps per.

There is one solar panel that is 100 watts. I will ask our warehouse to give me the measurements although it may be a day or two hours before I can get that. I will keep you posted.

It is pretty hardy for a solar panel. I take it backpacking and store it on the outside of my bag. Last hike I forgot I had it on the outside pocket of my pack and tossed it waist-belt up in my trunk. It was 50lbs. I thought for sure I broke something. It was fine. I seriously am blown away by this thing. Get it. Treat it best you can of course. I will never forget where it is attached again! it is a solar panel after all, they are inherently a bit fragile.

I cannot help you. The solar panel I purchase was a gift to a Hopi friend of mine who lives on the Reservation here in Arizona. I believe his is working well.

Yes, that's true ~. 2x30watt panels = 60 watts going to your controller. Good luck & have fun capturing the Sun. :-)
