240W Monocrystalline Solar Panel PV Module for Home & Commercial Rooftop
240W Monocrystalline Solar Panel PV Module for Home & Commercial Rooftop
The longest of the narrow-body modules, this 240 W panel makes efficient use of a narrow strip of roof. It is the practical choice where an RV, a container office or a boat has length to spare but not width.
Where it fits best
- Container offices and site cabins with narrow roof space
- A two-panel 12 V array for a small off-grid household
- Replacing older low-wattage panels one-for-one with far more output

Questions buyers ask
Can two of these run a small air conditioner?
Not on panels alone. A 480 W array cannot start or sustain a compressor; that needs a substantially larger array plus a battery bank and inverter sized for the surge.
Is the frame strong enough for roof mounting?
Yes — 5400 Pa front and 2400 Pa rear mechanical load covers standard roof mounting with clamps on all four sides.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a monocrystalline solar panel?
A panel built from single-crystal silicon cells, giving higher efficiency and a smaller footprint than polycrystalline types.
Do panels work on cloudy days?
Yes, at reduced output — typically 10–50% of clear-sky levels depending on how thick the cloud cover is.
How long do solar panels last?
Quality modules commonly retain most of their output for 20–25 years thanks to tempered glass and aluminium frames.
Can I connect panels to a battery?
Panels feed an MPPT charge controller or hybrid inverter, which safely charges the connected battery bank.
