I have found that inflexable solar panels on my fathers minivan don't survive very well and started looking at this
EVTV Motor Verks Store: Flexible Solar Panel 120w, Solar, Boat and Golf, 120wsolarpanel
Good lord the $5 flexable panels have come up in price, but it is 120watt and more efficient.
In any even I would love a 12v flexi on the roof of my insight with "significant" wattage and will use a spare 12v AGM battery charge controller I have to see if that tops off my cars 12v battery as it sits all day and improves FE slightly.
(yes I saw the mini plug in hybrid cobb has)
I am also thinking of using a 48v set of those on my fathers kei van, 240 watts fits OK and that is nothing to sneeze at, 4-5 amps is only about half the speed of the big charger.
Main problem I see
1. Price, it isn't 2002 again
2. Dimensions and available voltages
In an ideal world I could buy these in small and efficient dimensions to create a high volt panel of any wattage.
Any ideas? Do the high efficiency units come in a lower price and different dimensions?
Thanx
