Product details
The Sunman eArc 85W 9V Flexible Solar Panel is a lightweight, low-profile solution designed for installs where traditional framed panels aren’t practical. Built with a flexible composite construction and a clean top-side finish, it’s well suited to caravans, motorhomes, boats and other curved or space-limited surfaces.
With a compact 85W output and flexible design, it’s a strong option for reducing roof load while maintaining reliable solar input in mobile setups.
Key Features
• 85W flexible solar panel designed for curved and low-profile installs
• 9V nominal output for specific system configurations
• Mono-PERC cells for efficient energy production in a compact footprint
• Lightweight, frame-free composite construction
• Junction box mounted underneath for a clean top-side finish
• CEC-approved for use in Australia
• Includes Vented Gap Kit to improve airflow and reduce heat build-up
Important: 9V Panel Configuration
This panel operates at 9V nominal, which makes system design important when charging a 12V battery.
In most setups, you’ll either:
• Run two panels in series (~18V) into a standard PWM or MPPT controller
• Use a compatible controller that can accept lower input voltage (such as select REDARC or boost-type controllers)
If not configured correctly, a single panel may not provide sufficient voltage to properly charge a 12V battery. Planning your controller and wiring setup upfront will ensure consistent charging performance.
Built for Mobile and Curved Installations
The flexible construction makes this panel ideal for rooftops where flat, rigid panels aren’t suitable. It’s commonly used on caravans, buses, yachts and other applications where weight, profile and mounting flexibility matter.
The underside junction box keeps the surface clean, reducing snag points and improving overall install finish.
Vented Gap Kit Included
Correct mounting is critical for flexible panels, particularly in Australian conditions where heat build-up can impact performance. The included Vented Gap Kit improves airflow beneath the panel, helping reduce surface temperature and maintain more stable output.
It also simplifies installation with high-bond adhesive tape and polycarbonate spacing strips.
Durable Composite Construction
Built using advanced composite materials rather than traditional glass and aluminium framing, the Sunman eArc range is designed to handle real-world conditions without the added weight of rigid panels. This makes it particularly well suited to mobile applications where both durability and weight savings matter.
Versatile Applications
This panel is a strong fit for:
• Caravan and motorhome rooftop installs
• Marine and coastal applications
• Lightweight touring setups
• Curved or low-clearance mounting surfaces
A practical solution for space-constrained systems, the Sunman eArc 85W offers a clean install, reduced weight and flexible mounting without sacrificing reliability.
