Solar Panels, Fountains, Solar Lights, Thin Film Panels

130 Watt solar panels are great for a myriad of residential and commercial applications.

Solar panel output is measured in watts, which indicates the amount of power that the solar panel will produce when in full sunlight.

Multiply the watt rating of the given device you plan to use by the number of hours that device will be in use per day in order to find out how many watts of power you will need your solar panel to produce. To be safe, it is often better to select a panel which will supply more energy than you actually expect to require. Remember, however, that this will only give you a rough indication. For a more accurate assessment you should contact a specialist.

The amount of energy that your 130 watt solar panels will produce can be effected by the location in which they are placed. Note also that you can in reality expect to receive about 10% less energy than the label on the product indicates, since wattage labels are based on industry standards.

The size that a solar panel (130 watt solar panel or otherwise) ends up being is determined by a combination of factors including the wattage the panel will need to generate and the type of panel in question.

Though there are exceptions, in general Solar Panels of up to 130 watts are 12 volt panels.
