Calpha 100W Mono rigid panel $49.95

[Bud Martin]

I ordered 4 of them.
I saw the reviews on YouTube so I decide to check out the website, Calpha.com.
I put one in the cart but did not check out, I also signed up to see if they have any deal for first time buyer, about an hour later I got and Email offering me $50 off for first order which I ending up ordering 4 of them for only $149.80 ($37.45 each) with free shipping to California.
They should be here around next week.

Way too expensive

For 100w panels that is a decent price. I have been monitoring the RV panels for a few years now and their prices seemed to have flat lined at around the $50 price range with free shipping. Not as good as the larger (300w and up) wattage panels but those usually do not sell one at time with free shipping. There are advantages to this size when it comes to working with.

Never heard of those and can't speak of their quality. 50¢ per watt is the lowest I have seen any 100watt panels so that is a good price if you need that size.

If they are quality panels they probably make sense for mobile applications. It's really hard sometimes working around all the things on an RV roof.

Any update on this?

Are there better options (at 100W or larger) for new panels if not purchasing in bulk/pallet quantities?

$199 delivered for 5 ($40/each or $0.40/watt). Not bad if they're any good and you need the size. I have a ridge on my roof that could hold a few more panels... tempting!

I received them and tested them out and was able to get about 85 ~ 90W from each one on 80F day. I am happy for what I get at the price I paid for.
