I fitted umpteen of those Canadian 410w panels last year from Bimble, they were Β£99 each last year! Thatβs fantastic price got to say, although there is a cΒ£65 delivery charge to add on!π

Yes bimble solar do have exspensive delivery costs. But that price is astonishing.

You will really struggle / wont be able to physically fit 5 to a narrowboat, Good point. Just measured. 4 would be the max.
So any suggestions for 3 or 4 panels?
Thanks.

3 panels on tilting brackets I would fit with a 100a mppt π Thats 2 of them fitted on a 58β boatβ¦ you could get another in front of the rear hatch but the centre space would make centre rope use awkward unless youdropped it flat and took care whilst cruising.

Ive used EPever 100a controllers or victron for 50a controllers, would sooner use victron but 100a ones are just too expensive for most folk! Never had any bother with the probably 20 EPever setups Ive done & use one myself!π
If you pm me your details Ill give you a bell and explain how I do the setup when youre ready.π
