⏬ New Generation All-Back Contact Solar Technology
The CMPower 70W panel uses 27.4% efficient Back Contact solar cells, representing a new generation of high-efficiency solar technology.
Unlike conventional solar cells, ABC (All-Back Contact) technology places the positive and negative electrical contacts on the rear side of the cell. This leaves more of the front surface available for sunlight energy absorption while creating a clean, seamless black appearance.
The result is a high-efficiency solar panel designed to deliver more power from limited installation space.
⏬ High Efficiency for Space-Constrained Installations
When available installation space is limited, panel efficiency matters.
At 27.4% cell efficiency, this 70W panel is designed to provide high output from its compact 540 × 570 mm (21.26 × 22.4 inch) footprint.
That makes it particularly useful for applications where every square inch matters, including:
- Boat bimini tops
- Boat decks
- Marine and yacht installations
- Van roofs
- Roof racks
- Rooftops
- Other curved or weight-sensitive surfaces
⏬ Lightweight & Semi-Flexible
At only 0.9 kg (2.0 lb) and just 3 mm thick, the CMPower 70W panel is easy to handle and suitable for installations where weight and profile are important.
Its semi-flexible construction allows the panel to follow suitable curved surfaces, with a maximum bend angle of 60°.
Note: This is a semi-flexible solar panel and should only be bent within its specified limits.
⏬ Enhanced Shade Tolerance
Marine and mobile installations can experience partial shading from masts, rigging, antennas, rails, roof equipment, and other obstructions.
The CMPower Back Contact panel incorporates an advanced cell and electrical design for improved performance under partial shading, helping make better use of available sunlight in real-world installations.
⏬ Designed for Marine & Mobile Applications
Built for real-world solar applications, the CMPower 70W semi-flexible panel is suitable for:
Boats • Bimini Tops • Boat Decks • Vans • Roof Racks • Rooftops • Curved Surfaces
Its waterproof IP67 junction box, marine-suitable 316 stainless steel mounting holes and eyelets, and IEC salt mist testing make it well suited for demanding installation environments.
