Have a look at the key features to keep you free camping for longer:
Solar technology has come an incredibly long way over the years. We now have ready access to the kind of solar technology that can harness the sun’s power with levels of efficiency we only ever used to dream of. Right at the forefront of solar technology is the BainTuff 180W Solar Blanket.
MASSIVE 180W POWER RATING: One of the most powerful solar power options on the market today, it’ll pump out up to 10 amps an hour on sunny days. - ULTRA LIGHT WEIGHT: Weighing just 5kg it’s so easy to setup and pack up compared to traditional folding panels that can weigh three or four times as much. And when it’s packed away, it’s so small that you can store it under the bed or in a drawer!
EXTREME EFFICIENCY: We all know it’s rarely sunny all day, but the BainTuff blanket’s solar cells are able to harness maximum power even on cloudy or overcast days. The solar panel efficiency is up to 25%, while most of the similar products on the market are 18% or lower.
CHARGE YOUR MOBILE DEVICES DIRECTLY: Connect your phones and tablets to the in-built USB ports for high-speed, safe charging of mobile devices.
STABLE POWER: Traditionally, portable solar charging has not been considered a stable source of power. A solar panel powered by unstable sunlight leads to unstable current and voltage, which will shorten your devices life or even damage it. THE BainTuff blanket’s voltage regulator keeps a consistent current running to your device prolonging its life.
AUTOMATICALLY BUILT-IN USB IC: Most folding solar panels with a USB connector cannot charge some types of mobile phones due to not having an automatically recognised USB IC. The special IC in the BainTuff blanket makes the charging current as powerful as possible so the charging rate is a lot quicker, whereas other kinds of folding solar panels only consume some of the output current, making the charging time much longer.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY: Extend battery life by up to three times by maintaining correct charge levels. Save the environment and your wallet!
The BainTuff Solar Blanket will instantly connect to any solar regulator via the included, industry-standard Anderson connection so there’s no need for complicated wiring or costly modifications to your existing 12v system.

Product Q&A
-
Is this solar blanket waterproof?
Hi - Yes the solar blanket is waterproof and suitable for most outdoor environments.
-
what material is the baintuff blanket made of?it looks like a vinyl..
Hi Ryan,
The blanket is made out of a woven synthetic material, which makes it extremely durable.
-
Hi, there are 2 questions above that ask about use with lithium batteries. One answer says the PWM regulator will work ok where the other said it won't. Have I missed something? Thanks.
Hi There,
Certain PWM regulators are not suitable for charging lithium batteries.
The regulator on this solar blanket according to the manufacturer is suitable for use with lithium batteries.
-
I am plugging into a BMS with a built in PVM. Can I buy only the blanket and save on the PVM and cables as I do not require them?
Hi,
We can only supply the full package. We don't sell the blanket on it's own without cables etc.
-
What's the difference between Mono & Polycrystalline solar cells?
There's actually not a whole lot of difference when it comes to Caravan, RV and Camping applications to be honest. They are different cell types and are more relevant for home grid tied roof top.
You will read that poly are better in low light conditions and mono are more efficient. But for roof top caravan's the difference is negligible.
The most important thing is to get a well-constructed roof top panel from a quality brand and get the right sizing for your application.
-
I'm interested in the 180W Solar Blanket, I can see it comes with a regulator. It is usable with a lithium battery?
Yes, the regulator is a PWM model which is compatible with lithium batteries. It is designed to ensure compatibility with all batteries as they are single stage chargers. Opposite to the multistage chargers which will require a specific algorithm to recognize a Lithium, AGM, or Gel battery.
-
Will the included PWN controller charge a lithium battery?
The PWM will work with lithium batteries however it will not fully charge a lithium battery, it will generally charge lithium up to 90%.
