350W 12V Monocrystalline StarPower Fixed Solar Panel

This 350W 12V monocrystalline fixed solar panel is a compact framed option for compatible caravan, camper, 4WD, cabin and off-grid battery systems. Its listed 970 × 710mm footprint and 7.45kg weight suit installations where usable mounting area and panel weight need careful consideration.

The panel uses Grade-A monocrystalline cells, an anodised aluminium frame, tempered-glass front surface and rear junction-box cable. It must be connected through a compatible solar charge controller and must not be connected directly to a battery.

350W Fixed Solar Panel: Confirmed Details

Important Electrical Compatibility Check

Before selecting a controller or designing a multi-panel array, confirm the current production panel’s Vmp, Imp, Voc and Isc from the physical product label or current datasheet. These electrical values determine controller compatibility, cable sizing, fusing and series or parallel limits.

Do not size a controller from the 350W rating alone. The controller must accept the panel’s verified open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current with the safety and temperature margins required by its manufacturer.

Suitable Caravan, Camping & Off-Grid Uses

• Caravan and camper-trailer roofs where the dimensions and structure suit the panel
• 4WD canopy or roof-rack systems with appropriate mounting
• Sheds, cabins and small independent-power systems
• Compatible 12V lithium or AGM battery systems through an appropriate controller
• Fixed arrays where a compact framed panel is preferred over a flexible or folding format

Measure the complete mounting area before ordering and allow for brackets, rails, ventilation, cable routing and service access. Confirm that the supporting structure and hardware suit the 7.45kg panel and the loads expected during travel or severe weather.

Controller & Battery Matching

Use a compatible MPPT or PWM controller whose verified PV-input limits and charging-current rating suit the panel and battery bank. The controller must also provide the correct charging profile for the battery voltage and chemistry.

Browse MPPT solar charge controllers, lithium batteries and AGM batteries when planning a complete system.

Real-World Solar Output

The 350W rating is measured under standard test conditions. Actual output varies with Australian location, season, panel temperature, orientation, tilt, shading, dirt, cable loss, controller efficiency and battery state.

Install the panel where roof vents, aerials, racks and nearby equipment are unlikely to cast regular shade across the cells. Partial shade can materially reduce solar production.

Installation & Safety

• Follow the current product and controller instructions.
• Use correctly sized solar cable, compatible connectors, fuses and isolation equipment.
• Keep the complete array within every connected device’s voltage and current limits.
• Use suitable mounting hardware and weatherproof cable entries.
• Obtain appropriately qualified advice for structural, fixed or regulated electrical work.

350W Solar Panel FAQs

Is this suitable for a nominal 12V battery system?

It can be used in a compatible nominal 12V charging system through an appropriately sized controller. Confirm the panel label and controller limits before connection.

Can the panel connect directly to a battery?

No. A compatible solar charge controller and correctly sized protection are required between the panel and battery.

Can two 350W panels be connected together?

Potentially, but series wiring increases array voltage and parallel wiring increases array current. Recalculate the system using the verified label values and controller limits first.

Is a controller, battery or inverter included?

The listing is for the solar panel. The product images show a controller, battery and inverter as not included. Select those components separately to suit the intended system.
