Single crystal cell description
In order to produce a single crystal cell, it is necessary to produce a uniform quartz crystal ingot. Such production is quite difficult. The round ingot is cut into so-called wafers, which are trimmed to the desired size of the PV cell. Since the ingot is formed as one large silicon crystal, its structure is uniform and very pure.

Benefits of single crystal
Higher cell efficiency and therefore higher power output from the same area
Slightly slower "aging" of silicon, i.e. panel performance degrades more slowly with time
the colouring of the cells is homogeneous, the panels are not "mottled"

Installation
If the flexible panel is bonded to the roof of a vehicle, caravan etc., it is necessary to take into account the different expansion of the roof and the panel material, which may cause damage to the flexible panel.
It is recommended to glue the flexible panels on an intermediate layer of "Makrolon Plaxiglas", which also allows air flow under the solar panel, thus increasing its efficiency.

Please note: the flexible panel can only be bent with the longer side at a maximum angle of 25°.
