new ETI solar panel

[Zardoz-ESC]

Jim,
Do you know whether or not the new solar panels are inter-changeable with the older, 95 Watt units (specifically in terms of mounting bracket locations)?

Hi: Zardoz... I believe the new panels are the same size only more efficient. Alf

I was hoping Reace would answer that….I'm sending ETI an email.

This post contains important information from the factory about the operation of our refrigerators. Please let's keep it on that topic.
Could a moderator please start a new topic concerning the solar panels.

Thanks

GoPowers website shows the 160's at 26.5"x58.3".

The 95's are 20.8" x 40.8"

Is ETI using GoPower's 160w system?

Jim,
and miss the opportunity to mod your solar .

I think there is room for a second panel on top of the 21

I measured the panels on my 19' and they are 20 3/4" wide. There is only 24 3/4" between the MaxiFan and the air conditioner cover so the bigger panel wouldn't fit a 19' like mine.

I believe they are installing the new panels on the rear on the new 19's and 5.0 TA, not sure about the 21's.

Yes, one of our build pics shows the new solar panel on the back of the 21.
