Laminates that
www.sunelec.com is selling are regular solar panels that are
missing the frames
They are solar cells sandwiched between glass and telvar , if you flex it ,
you destroy the panel
You must make a supporting structure for these panels. These should be
looked at as just work-in-process panels
that sunelec got a hold of when Astro power went bankrupt , they don't have
Jboxes , diodes or frames , just the raw
sandwich of a panel with strips coming out the back intended to connect to a
terminal block inside a Jbox
I'm not sure how the warranty could be honored as Astro power is no more
I have 20 BP laminates (75 watts) I bought from Sunelec in 2003 , I had to
make frames , but they did have MC connectors and diodes ,
this was for 1.50 watt, so I at the time thought it was worth the risk and
hassle. Though having done it , I would not do again , way to much work for
the savings
