Discover the Advanced 160 Watt Walkable Marine Solar Panel
Discover the outstanding performance of our semi-rigid 160-watt walkable marine solar panel, designed specifically for Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Ford Transit and Ram Promaster vans. These are NOT your typical flexible solar panels! With premium HJT solar cells, these panels offer good efficiency, featuring a durable backing and ETFE laminate non-skid surface that is designed to be walked on. For the best solar cells and efficiency look at our 160w sunpower panel. Ideal for van roofs, they redefine versatility in solar energy solutions.
The panel's advanced HJT technology delivers up to 6-14% more energy than standard monocrystalline cells. There is no glass and no aluminum frame so these panels are considerably lighter than rigid panels but heavier and stiffer than typical flexible panels. They can be bent slightly to match up with the underlying surface, about 5%. The white backing is better at dissipating heat. For maximum space utilization and functionality on your van roof, combine these walkable solar panels with our 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.
