If industrial solar panels are too big for what you need, yet portable solar chargers fail to generate the power you require - you probably need the middleman in the business. Say hello to the mini solar panels. They account for exactly that: a small version of the big solar panels you see on roofs of houses or mounted on a series of ground supported chain structures.

 

All mini solar panels have the properties of a normal solar panel, only they are lighter, and can still make up for a decent output. They also have their cover enforced by epoxy glue alloy, which prevents the surface from harsh weather conditions, mechanical wear and aging.

 

Mini panels has also one great benefit - their installation cost greatly outmatches that of their industrial counterparts, and since they can be combined by the dozens, this makes them a preferred choice for any household on a tight budget. However, saving money by using solar power can be tricky - you really need to plan ahead with all the expenses that follow up this particular setup.

 

Apart from the usual installation fees - unless you have the experience to set them up yourself - there are also other expenditures like permits, auxiliary equipment and possible additional construction work. You need to be aware of all that before placing an order. It might turn out you would be better off with your old hydro bill, so make the necessary prior calculations in advance.

 

Using mini panels effectively is all about careful evaluation of the total power you need produced. Otherwise you could have been satisfied with your portable solar charger or your regular size panel. This job is usually left for experts in electrical outputs. Make an adequate list of appliances you plan to use on a daily basis is a good start. Also, try to figure out if you have a power rush hour; that is, if you tend to overuse power at certain part of the day or the week.

 

Planning will pretty much help the engineer you hired to calculate the total surface of your small solar panels you need for your setup, as well as scope of battery packs you need in order for that excess power to be accumulated and used at a later time. The idea is that you are never going to be fully using the power output generated in real time.
