A lightweight, thin, and truly flexible solar panel rated at 1.5V / 250mA (0.5W). Unlike rigid solar panels, this one can be bent, sewn, or adhered to curved surfaces, making it perfect for wearable electronics, portable gear, and creative DIY projects.
The durable ETFE film construction is waterproof and resistant to corrosion, while the black fabric edges can be easily trimmed or sewn into clothing and fabric enclosures. Built with triple-junction amorphous silicon thin-film solar cells for reliable performance across a wide temperature range.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- e-textiles
- Electronic textiles are fabrics or clothing that include electrical parts such as conductive thread, sensors, LEDs, or small controllers. This matters because parts for e-textiles need to survive bending, sewing, and sometimes washing.
- IoT
- Short for Internet of Things, meaning physical devices that connect to networks or the internet to send data or be controlled remotely. It matters if you want projects such as connected sensors, remote controls or classroom data-logging activities.
- Transmittance
- Transmittance describes how much light passes through the display or touch panel layers. Higher transmittance can make the screen appear brighter or clearer for the same backlight power.
