## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=FIT0573:1` (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/FIT0573:1.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

This powerful monocrystalline solar panel features an A-class monocrystalline silicon panel imported from the United States, a conversion efficiency of up to 21% and a waterproof design, so you don't have to worry about rainwater. The ultra-thin, lightweight design weighs just 142g. It's much lighter than a solar panel in a traditional glass package.

The solar panel will be particularly energy efficient when paired with the [DFRobot solar power management board](https://core-electronics.com.au/sunflower-solar-power-manager-5v.html). It will provide more power even in complex environments, even on the rainy days, to prevent the system from shutting down. The panels are provided with open holes and copper clasps that can be attached directly to the backpack for easy portability and use.

When hanging, make sure the panel is facing the sun and there is no shade covering the solar panel.
