Semi Flexible vs Rigid

nickchapman · 02-09-22, 04:12 AM

Im hoping to build my own DIY solar kit and in my research I've been seeing semi-flexible solar panels crop up a lot.

The project will eventually be for my VW camper but I want to get my head around the solar tech available first before I install it.

I have a long way to go and a lot of research to do but initially, I'm wondering if someone with experience in this stuff could outline some of the practical differences between semi-flex and rigid panels?

What are the benefits of using rigid instead of semi-flex?

Are there any issues with semi-flex that make them hard to work with?
