CHARGE POWER STATIONS AND MPPT CAMPING SYSTEMS WITH A HIGHER VOLTAGE.

kAL400

The new Kalahari Solar Panel Range in High Voltage (Hi-Volt): now available in 300W and 400W Models!

As the demand for more power output continues to surge, the conventional 12V solar panel systems are no longer suitable. We are proud to introduce our innovative Hi-Volt system, operating at a nominal 24V. With higher watt ratings and increased voltage, our Hi-Volt system significantly reduces current in cables, resulting in a more stable and efficient power system. 

Hi-Volt. Perfect for all portable power stations where solar input is capped at 10A.

Hi-Volt. Perfect for many MPPT camping systems for a powerful solar charge. Victron Smart MPPT are well suited.

Hi-Volt. Increase extension cable (4mm2) length up to 25m.

Teflon (ETFE) module encapsulation. Best encapsulation for portable solar panels. Flexopower exclusively utilizing Neoflon from Daikin (Japan). 

Shingled solar cell technology. More power per m2 and better suited against losses from partial shading.

Aluminum Frame. Ensuring robust stability to minimize long-term solar cell cracking.



  • Hi-Volt means Vmp of 36.5V rated at 400W. The majority of portable power stations are limited to max. 10A solar input. Conventional 12V solar panels quickly exceed this limitation, its input capped and slower to re-charge. Whereas the Kalahari400 input is not capped, ensuring a faster re-charge.
  • Hi-Volt means Vmp of 36.5V rated at 400W. Means an improved battery charge for campers with a suitable MPPT charge controller. The MPPT is stepping down the Kalahari400 voltage to the camper's battery voltage. This increased voltage differential improves the efficiency of the MPPT as compared to a conventional 12V panel. Higher voltage also reduces the voltage loss in cabling. 
  • Victron Smart MPPT's are ideal to work with the Hi Volt panels. Unfortunately, Ctek,  RedArc and others do not yet cater for. 
  • Hi-Volt means not suitable for PWM charge controllers.
  • Shingled solar cells are connected in groups and configured in parallel, greatly reducing losses from partial shading (other panels typically have their cells wired in series, causing significant losses if part of the panel is shaded).
  • Shingled solar cells reduce the spacing between the cells, no silver metal strips running across the panel, reducing the footprint of the panel. Smaller panel = less packing space.
  • What is shingled solar cell technology? Read our blog.
  • Supporting legs: collapsible supporting legs angle the solar panels at 45 degrees against the sun for improved solar harvesting, especially during winter months and low sun settings. 
  • Quality assurance: each solar panel has its own unique serial number making it traceable through the entire manufacturing and QC process.
