Solar PANEL Cells for sale - A GRADE NEW 3"x6" 1.8W 3.6 Amp FULL power !
This listing is for:
Polycrystalline 3x6 solar cells. The power output average 1.8 watts per cell. These cells are PERFECT! No chips, no cracks, only A GRADE solar cells!
Note: these cells are very fragile, so handle with EXTREME care when opening the package, moving them around and soldering.
To make a 18 volts panel, for example, you connect 36 cells in series (36 cells times 0.5 volt each = 18 volts). 18 volt panels are 12 volt nominal for 12 volt batteries. 72 cells will be used to build a 36 volt panel (if all cells are connected in series), which are used to charge batteries in a 24 volt system. When connecting cells in series, voltage accumulates, but amperage remains constant. Soldering some in parallel, will have the amperage accumulate and the voltage will remain constant. Series / parallel combinations are also possible to manipulate voltage and amperage ratings, although that makes things a bit more tricky! Happy panel building!!
P.S. - This listing does not include any flux, tabbing wire, bus wire, solder wire or diodes. Depending on the amount of cells you buy, I may decide to add some tabbing and bus wire to your order.
