Uni-Solar PVL-116 116W 24V Amorphous Flexible Solar Panel UL

Uni-Solar PVL-116 116W 24V Amorphous Flexible Solar Panel UL

The Uni-Solar PVL-116 is a 116-watt amorphous thin-film flexible solar panel designed for 24V DC systems. This lightweight, conformable panel features peel-and-stick adhesive mounting with no hardware required, making it ideal for applications where rigid modules cannot conform to surface geometry. The solder-point connection allows direct integration into custom DC systems. With per-cell bypass diode protection and UL listing, this panel is engineered for safety and reliability in both on-grid and off-grid installations.

Applications

Amorphous thin-film solar panels like the Uni-Solar PVL-116 were pioneered in the 1980s and 1990s as a lightweight, flexible alternative to traditional rigid crystalline modules. The flexible construction and low weight make them well-suited for RV roofs, boat cabins, and marine vessels where weight distribution and surface conformance matter. Off-grid power systems, remote cabins, and emergency backup power installations benefit from the 24V output, which directly charges battery banks without additional voltage regulation. The peel-and-stick mounting approach eliminates drilling and fasteners—valuable for rental properties, temporary installations, and structures where permanent alterations are prohibited. Industrial and agricultural applications include powering remote monitoring equipment, water pumping systems, and communications infrastructure. Despite their age, these panels remain functional for legacy 24V DC systems and off-grid installations where performance expectations align with amorphous-film characteristics.
