How to Use It

Park in the shade. Put the panel in the sun. Connect the FlexoSun 260W directly to your Flexopower power station via a FlexoLink extension cable — no separate charge controller required. Alternatively, connect directly to a solar charge controller in front of a deep cycle battery for use in a conventional fixed solar system.

Why TOPCon Solar Cell Technology

TOPCon — Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact — is the current leading generation of monocrystalline solar cell technology. Cell efficiency of 25.8% or higher means more power output per square metre than conventional PERC or shingled cells. The 16 busbars per cell reduce resistive losses and improve performance under real-world conditions including partial cloud and low light. TOPCon cells also demonstrate better temperature coefficient performance — they lose less output as the panel heats up in African sun.

The FlexoSun260W uses 182.5 × 182.5mm TOPCon shingled cells — combining the high efficiency of TOPCon architecture with the partial shade resilience of shingled cell configuration.

IP67 Waterproofing

The FlexoSun260W carries an IP67 rating — fully dustproof and waterproof to submersion at 1 metre for 30 minutes. This is a significant step up from standard ETFE encapsulation. Rain, dust, river crossings, condensation and field conditions that would compromise lesser panels are within the FlexoSun165W's design parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it need a separate charge controller?

 No. The integrated MPPT in any Flexopower power station handles charge management automatically. Connect the panel directly via a FlexoLink cable. Alternatively connect to a Victron Smart MPPT or compatible solar charge controller for a conventional fixed battery system.

What is TOPCon solar cell technology?

TOPCon — Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact — is the current leading generation of monocrystalline solar cell technology. It delivers higher cell efficiency, better low-light performance and a lower temperature coefficient than conventional PERC cells. The FlexoSun165W uses TOPCon shingled cells combining both technologies for maximum output and partial shade resilience.

Is the FlexoSun 260W waterproof?

Yes. The FlexoSun 260W is IP67 rated — fully dustproof and waterproof to 1 metre submersion for 30 minutes. It is built for real field conditions including rain, dust and humidity.

How does the FlexoSun 260W compare to the FlexoSun 165W?

Both panels share the same TOPCon cell technology, IP67 rating, Anderson SB50 connector and 5-year warranty. The 260W uses a four-panel fold and delivers 57% more power than the 165W — suited to larger power stations and longer trips. The 165W is more compact and ideal for smaller setups or space-constrained vehicles.

How does the FlexoSun 260W compare to the Namib 240W?

The FlexoSun 260W uses TOPCon cell technology vs the Namib 240W's PERC cells. TOPCon delivers higher efficiency per cell, better low-light performance and a longer lifespan. The 260W also adds IP67 waterproofing and a 5-year warranty vs the Namib's IP65 and 2-year warranty.

What is the warranty?

5 years. The longest warranty in the Flexopower solar panel range.

New generation. Higher efficiency. IP67. The FlexoSun 165W — where the FlexoSun range begins.
