The Suntech STA010-12 is a 10 Watt, 12 Volt solar panel, composed of 36 multicrystalline silicon solar cells connected in series to produce the 12 Volt output. For each 18 cell series strings, one bypass diode is installed.

Provides enough power to trickle charge a 12V vehicle or deep cycle battery. Suitable for running pumps, lights, fans, and small appliances such as stereos, televisions and VCRs in caravans, boats or cabins.

Cells are laminated between high transmissivity, low-iron, 3mm tempered glass and a sheet of tedlar-polyeaster-tedlar (TPT) material by two sheets of ethylene Vinyl acetate (EVA). A heavy-duty anodized aluminium frame provides strength and convenient mounting access.
