Take advantage of the clean and unlimited power of the sun and save on energy bills with these great recreational solar package deals! Our monocrystalline solar panels are far more efficient than polycrystalline, and are built strong and tough to endure the harshest environments. Both packages come with solar regulators and connectors - just add cable and batteries and you have your very own sustainable solar power station.
