Bimini Top Solar Panels

1046 x 1559 x 46mm.

Bimini top solar panels.

The first decision was where the panels would go. They will not come off that easily and will remain attached for a longer time. We designed our saddle type post and fork mounts with solar panels in mind. 1440wp of solar energy this is what the new bimini can serve on solar power to feed all electrical devices on board run the 110v 220v inverter and load the batteries at the same time.

So it was decided to put some solar panels onboard bloom in order to keep our batteries topped up or at least close to it. All you have to do is stitch or glue the velcro to the back of the solar panels you are using and use the other velcro part of the bimini top. The saddle fittings bolt onto the top of the frame through the canvas of your bimini top or dodger. Custom kits can be made using any of the six light weight solar panels manufactured by powerfilm.

They give you easy secure mounts for a solar panel frame that won t draw attention to itself. The kits include all the mechanical and electrical components solar panels charge controllers and other related parts with the exception of the crossbeam bar which would be custom for your boat necessary for the installation. Our solar charging kits are easy to install and deliver excellent 12 volt charging power to the boat s battery bank. The bimini holds 4 panels of any brand that have the following dimensions.

This would also dictate what type of panels we would get. Easy to install kits we have made it easy to go solar by matching up the optimum combinations of solar panels controllers and hardware. These kits are a great solution to installing solar panels above your soft bimini top. We have designed two solar kits that will fit most bimini tops with 84 or 120 watts of solar power.

All panels come with industry standard waterproof mc4 connectors. No you can join them together. The solar panels installed in the video are for a soft bimini top onboard our powerboat makeover project which belongs to brian a manager at sailrite. These panels are ideal for mounting on a bimini top or a curved deck surface.
