165 Watt Walkable Marine Solar Panel with Maxeon Sunpower Cells
Upgrade your van with the Semi-Rigid 165 Watt Walkable Marine Solar Panel. This is our recommended panel for all Sprinter Vans with our rack and deck panels due to the dimensions of the panel. Featuring SunPower Maxeon solar cells, these panels deliver exceptional performance even in partial sun conditions.
These are NOT your typical flexible solar panels! Designed with carbon fiber backing and ETFE laminate non-skid surface, they are engineered to be walked on without fear of damaging the solar cells. The panels are considerably lighter than rigid panels but heavier and stiffer than typical flexible panels. For maximum space utilization and functionality on your van roof, combine these walkable solar panels with Orion's modular deck panels for the ultimate solution.

Customer Reviews
This is a fantastic solar panel for my sprinter. It's very thin and bulletproof, very walkable.
The panels work great and I have yet to plug in to shore power. I have left the battery heaters on and the power takes care of the battery’s first thing in the morning. I have only been on one trip. Ran all power and never was below 550w in the morning.
Thank you for your positive feedback on our 155 Watt Walkable Marine Solar Panel! We are glad to hear that it has been providing enough power for your trips and taking care of your battery's needs. We hope it continues to exceed your expectations in the future.
The Orion roof rack with their deck panels allowed us to get 600 watts of walkable solar panels on our 170 sprinter! This roof rack system has a Maxxair Fan, a 12v AC, a full deck, and 600 watts of walkable solar! Can't beat that.
