    Lightweight solar panels recommendation ?

    Hi all,

    Im looking for a semi portable lightweight & compact solar panel for the D2.

    Its for our camping setup and only to keep a 120Ah AGM topped up when running the Engel 40.

    I was thinking of a flexible panel like this mounted on a slide out board just under the roof rack ( slide out and put in the sun when camping)
    Sunman eArc 185W - Semi Frameless JB On Top

    Or an AdventureKings flexible fold up one.

    Dont have the space or available Kg spare for those bulky rigid folding panels!

    Anyone have any experience with these?
    Cheers

    Have a look at the solar blanket panels.
    They fold up nice and small and a small 120w should keep a 40l Engle running easilly

    I’m also interested in others experience with the folding panels
    4Wd Supercentre have a consumer forum on FB
    I might have a look at their panels and report back
