We’ve installed Aptos 440-watt bifacial solar panels and are satisfied despite uncertain results. Continuous cloudy days at marina full of sailboats. Non-optimal panel angling for southern sun exposure, given the fall season and boat/RV roof mounting, haven’t yielded ideal conditions. However, they almost outperformed our LG 375-watt panels in peak sun.
During our 4-day testing, one Aptos 440-watt bifacial solar panel produced 400 peak watts of power. Two Aptos 440-watt solar panels in parallel generated 3.3 Kwh by 12:00 before clouds and rain moved in. However, our Victron 100/50 mppt charge controller and 12V battery bank limited the potential of the two solar panels to 700 watts.
We will, of course, be living with the 2 Aptos solar panels, so there will be future results. The flat mounting of the solar panels will also be more ideal in the Caribbean. We hope to head there shortly, but the two hurricanes have gotten in the way. Please comment below with questions, such as about current results; we hope to have better results in the future.
