## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA5366:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA5366:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

##  Description 

These panels come to Adafruit from Voltaic Systems, makers of fine solar-powered bags and packs. These are waterproof, scratch-resistant, and UV resistant, and they use 12 high efficiency monocrystalline SunPower cells with 22+% efficiency *(praise the sun!)*. Each cell has a nominal voltage of 0.5V so they call this a "6V" panel

They output a 'nominal' 6V at 330 mA peak via a 3.5mm x 1.1mm DC jack connector. The panel is constructed with **ETFE** (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene), making it extremely durable and resistant to environmental elements, a superior upgrade to PET or laminate solar panel construction. They can easily stand up to typical outdoor use, including being dropped and leaned on.

To connect, we suggest a 3.5mm OD/1.1mm ID DC jack or you can use [this handy 2.1mm adapter cable](https://core-electronics.com.au/3-5-1-3mm-to-5-5-2-1mm-dc-jack-adapter-cable.html) which will turn it into a standard 5.5mm/2.1mm DC plug

If you want to use this to charge a battery or run your project, [check out Adafruit's optimized Solar Lithium Ion/Polymer charger!](https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-universal-usb-dc-solar-lithium-ion-polymer-charger-bq24074.html)
