The Nomad 27M solar panel which utilizes mono-crystalline solar technology has already proven itself to be an extremely convenient and cost effective source of energy. In fact, the Nomad 27M puts out 27 watts and one of the great things about it is that it can be charged during all weather conditions. During clear, sunny spells, a full charge takes approximately four and a half hours. The amount of time required for a full charge does of course depend on the weather, so when it’s partly cloudy, charging takes more or less seven hours, and if the sky is completely over overcast, it may take up to 15 hours. It should also be noted that charging times also vary depending on the type of batteries being used. All in all, when one considers the fact that you’re getting free electricity, waiting for the batteries to charge poses no real problem at all.
It is ideal for charging electronics and has eight small panels providing power, so you can use one at a time. One of the greatest attributes of the Nomad 27M solar panel is its size. It measures 22.5″ x 44.5″ x 0.03″ which drops to 10.5″ x 7″ x2″ when folded. Folding it makes storage easy. Homes where space is a problem will find it quite appropriate because when folded, you can easily store it in a drawer or case. It is also light in weight (3.4 lbs) and can be carried along when traveling, going on a hike or any other outdoor adventure. Simply attach whatever it is you need to charge on the solar panel, be it a phone or torch, fasten the panel on your backpack and keep walking!
Nomad 27M solar panel differs from the 13.5M panel in the number of watts. With a higher amount of wattage, it provides more power and is more efficient than the 13.5M panel. It also stores energy for much longer. Both use about the same charging voltage of 12V (+/-2V) but the 27M has an open circuit voltage of 18V.
Nomad 27M solar panel comes with three support rods made of aluminum, which provide stability when charging. You can use them to hold the panel in place when charging outdoors. It also comes with four sturdy grommets, which enable you to hang the panel at different angles. If you are worried about the clutter connecting electronics often brings, then you don’t have to anymore. It has a built in pocket that holds the connector cord in place when charging your items. This prevents the danger of someone tripping over the cord and being injured. You can place it at a far corner or if there are children in the house, you can easily put it under a chair or under the bed.
The Nomad 27M solar panel is made from top quality material which is durable and hardwearing. This essentially means that once you’ve bought it, you’ll have for many, many years. The unit is also water resistant, so even if you leave it standing outside overnight, you don’t need to worry about it getting damaged if it rains. Rain and dew will have absolutely no affect on it at all, but if you know you won’t be using it for a while, then it is of course better to fold it up so that it can be safely stored away in the case provided.
Jordan Eske has been living eco friendly since 2008. And in 2009 he decided to help consumers go green too with solar power. The Nomad 27M Solar Panel is rising in popularity for adventurers. Also published at Bring The 27 Solar Panel When You Camp.
