• Q:Does the solar blanket come with a charging accessory to plug into an ENGEL MT45FCP Combi 40L fridge?
  A:

  Yes, both SPF90W and SPF60W come with Engel Power Film Female Cigar Socket for direct charging to Engel Fridge. Do not plug in the Solar Controller when charging the Engel fridge directly from the solar blanket.

  A:

  In the accessories list you can choose Alligator Clips or O-Rings, to connect into the Solar Controller supplied. The O-rings provide a permanent or semipermanent connection and the alligator clips are a temporary option.

• Q:Hi, Just a quick question. My Caravan has Anderson connections for Solar Panel Connection. Do the foldable blankets come with Anderson Connections?
  A:

  Thanks very much for your question. The Engel Powerfilm Blankets do not come standard with charge fittings these are optional in the way of charging lead that plugs into the Solar Controller (supplied) with alligator clips or o-rings.

  To fit an anderson connection, you can have the alligator clips removed and the anderson connector attached. Some customers choose to do this themselves or have a professional in electrical componentry perform the modification.

  Remember to always use the solar controller supplied when charging your batteries from your solar blanket.

• Q:Can I hook this up directly to my Engel Fridge?
  A:

  Hi Fi,  it is recommended you use the solar panel to charge the battery, as opposed to running the fridge directly from the solar panel, as voltage will drop if clouds come overhead for instance. You can run the fridge direct from your solar panels if you wish, but using the battery means your refrigerator keeps running even if the voltage output of the solar panel drops severely due to cloud cover.

  If you do choose to run your fridge directly from your solar panel, a 90 Watt Engel solar blanket can even run a portable 40 litre fridge direct from the panel, without the need for a battery. Thanks

  A:

  You can 'daisy chain' two of the Engel Power Film blankets together to increase the power. Choose the 'Engel Power Film Daisy Chain Connector from the accessories list. This is popular for the two biggest blanket models: 60w and 90w -> Please feel free to call us with any further questions: 1300 400 122

• Q:What’s the difference between Mono & Polycrystalline solar cells?
  A:

  There's actually not a whole lot of difference when it comes to Caravan, RV and Camping applications to be honest. They are different cell types and are more relevant for home grid tied roof top.

  You will read that poly are better in low light conditions and mono are more efficient. But for roof top caravan's the difference is negligible.

  The most important thing is to get a well-constructed roof top panel from a quality brand and get the right sizing for your application.
