Two lightweight 240W flexible solar panels, supplied as a pair, for places where a rigid glass panel is awkward to fit.
Each panel is 1150 × 1090 mm and uses monocrystalline cells. The two panels together give 480W of rated power. Each comes with 3 m of 2.5 mm² cable and MC4 connectors.
What are these panels for?
Flexible panels are lighter and thinner than framed glass panels. That makes them a practical option for garden buildings, caravans and motorhomes, balcony rails and other surfaces where a rigid panel would be heavy or hard to mount.
These are DC solar panels only. They do not include an inverter, a battery or mounting hardware.

- 2 × 240W flexible monocrystalline solar panels
- Each panel has a 3 m cable pair (2.5 mm²) with MC4 connectors fitted
Not included
- Solar charge controller, microinverter or battery
- Mounting brackets, adhesive or fixings
- Extension cables
- Professional installation

Ratings are measured at standard test conditions (1000 W/m², 25°C, AM1.5). Output in UK conditions is usually lower, depending on light, angle, temperature and shading.
Check compatibility before you order
The panel voltage and current decide what you can connect these to. A single panel has a maximum-power voltage of about 21V, which is below the operating range of many microinverters and some charge controllers, so the way the panels are wired matters.
If you plan to use them with another Wrenstead product, compare the panel figures above with the input specifications on that product's page, for example the LS-800Mi microinverter or the H1600 Smart Solar Hub.
Connecting solar equipment to a home's electrical system must follow UK requirements and, where needed, be carried out by a qualified electrician.
