SUNLINQ with PowerFLEX technology is a flexible, foldable and durable solar product that produces enough power to charge rechargeable, flash lights, lanterns, cell phones, GPS units, satellite phones, MP3 players and portable games. Just about anything that is capable of being charged through a standard cigarette lighter adapter (CLA -car charger). SUNLINQ is available in 6.5W, 12W and 25W foldable solar panels. The SUNLINQ 25W is laminated onto a new urethane material that feels and acts like rubber, making it the most flexible, durable and water resistant SUNLINQ product. Using this new material makes the 25W SUNLINQ truly revolutionary. No other flexible, foldable solar panel is made this way today! The panels made with PowerFLEX technology are lightweight, flexible, weatherproof and durable CIGS (copper indium gallium diselenide) solar cells, a material proven to be stable, and provides higher efficiency than other flexible solar cell technologies, including amorphous silicon.
SUNLINQTM is the only solution for portable solar power for all types of outdoor needs. The SUNLINQTM 12 Watt
is ideal for hiking, camping, sporting events, on campus and at the beach.
Incorporating solid state, thin-film, PowerFLEXTM solar cells, the SUNLINQTM 12 Watt provides an excellent
choice for excursions that require lightweight, flexible, durable portable power.
