Question


Do solar panels of ThinLight and Nano series have a watertight Junction Box?

 

Answer


The Tregoo PV panels of ThinLight and Nano  series are provided with a watertight Junction Box. Therefore, Tregoo solar panels can be used even in rainy conditions or for your adventures in kayak or sailboat.

Warning:

The portable solar panels of Hippy series are not provided with a watertight Junction Box, since the current directly exits through an USB (Hippy 10 Extreme, Hippy 8 Action, etc. ) or coaxial port (Hippy 40, Hippy 120, etc.).

At the moment, a new completely waterproof Junction Box for Hippy series is undergoing lab tests. For example, Robert Hewetson is one of the athlete of the sponsoring Extreme and he is using the ThinLight 20 solar panel to power the devices on his kayak.
