About this product

100 W folding solar panel, in two sections, designed to recharge a Volta power station far from any connection.

182 × 182 mm monocrystalline cells with 23 % efficiency, ETFE front surface, EVA encapsulation and epoxy resin backing. The dyed polyester carry case doubles as a stand.

Output of 20.5 V at 4.9 A at the maximum power point, with a 2-metre MC4 cable. Folded: 600 × 565 × 30 mm. Unfolded: 1,130 × 600 × 4 mm. 3.8 kg.

This is the top-up model of the range: it fits in a boot and is carried in one hand. To refill a whole station between two stops, the 200 W is twice as fast.

Shipping and returns

Order dispatched within 24 hours. Then allow around fifteen days for delivery in mainland France; shipping is calculated in the cart before payment, and nothing is added after the order.

You may withdraw for 14 days after delivery. The estimated maximum cost of a return is €15 for an accessory. See Delivery and lead times and Returns and withdrawal.

Warranty and after-sales

Two years, parts and labour. Those two years are the statutory warranty of conformity, which we apply at no cost to you: the return, the repair or replacement and the reshipment are all on us.

After-sales support is handled in France, Monday to Friday from 9 am to 6 pm — contact@attolle.com, +33 (0)4 28 29 08 16. See Warranty and support.

Compliance and documents

We hold the manufacturer's datasheet for these three references. The test reports and certificates we obtain are published with their number and their laboratory on the Our checks page, as they reach us.

The EU declaration of conformity is available on request at contact@attolle.com, quoting the reference concerned.

CE QU'EN DISENT LES CLIENTS

Des retours, pas des étoiles.

  • Je voulais surtout quelque chose de moins encombrant pour mes sorties courtes. Le panneau se transporte facilement et se branche rapidement à ma station.

    Sébastien M.

  • Utilisé en camping pour maintenir ma station et recharger mes petits appareils. Le format me convient bien car je manque de place dans le coffre.

    Hugo B.

  • Acheté pour des sorties de deux ou trois jours. Il est facile à installer et suffisamment compact pour rester avec le reste du matériel.

    Laurent P.

  • Premier test concluant. Je cherchais surtout un panneau pliable qui ne prenne pas trop de place une fois rangé.

  • CONNECTION

    MC4 output

    The input on a Volta station is DC 5525; the cable that bridges the two is in the kit supplied with the station. All three panels output 20.5 V at the maximum power point: the connection is the same for each. For a station of another make, see the multi-connector adapter.

BEFORE YOU ORDER

The questions we get asked about solar

Does the panel plug straight into a Volta station?

Yes. The panel has an MC4 output, the photovoltaic standard, and the MC4 to DC 5525 cable that bridges the two is already in the kit supplied with every Volta station. Nothing else to buy.

All three Elios deliver 20.5 V at the maximum power point: the 100 W, the 200 W and the 300 W connect to a Volta 1000 or 1600 in exactly the same way. Only the current differs — 4.9 A on the 100 W, 9.8 A on the other two.

How long does it take to recharge a station?

A panel almost never delivers its peak power: that figure is measured at 1,000 W/m² with the cell at 25 °C, laboratory conditions. In full sun, well angled, you commonly get 60 to 75 % of the stated value, and far less under a hazy sky.

On that basis, the 200 W fills the 1,024 Wh of a Volta 1600 in one good sunny day, and the 100 W in two. These are calculated orders of magnitude, not measurements: we will publish readings once we have them.

Can it stay outside in the rain?

No. The front face is ETFE and copes with damp, but the manufacturer's data sheet states no ingress protection rating for the assembly, and neither the polyester case nor the connectors are meant to sit through a downpour. Fold it away when the weather turns.

Does it work with a station from another brand?

Often, yes, provided you check two things on your station: the voltage and the current its solar input accepts.

All three Elios output 20.5 V at the maximum power point. Open-circuit voltage rises to 24 V on the 100 W and 200 W, and to 25.5 V on the 300 W. Current is 4.9 A on the 100 W and 9.8 A on the 200 W and 300 W.

The MC4 connector is a standard; what changes is the adapter cable to your station's input, and that is what the multi-connector adapter offered above covers: XT60, Anderson, DC5521 and DC5525.

100 W or 200 W?

The 100 W is a top-up: 3.8 kg, two sections, it fits in a boot and keeps a station charged through the day. The 200 W genuinely recharges, but it weighs 7 kg and measures 2.16 m unfolded — it needs room, and something to weigh it down in a stiff breeze.

The 300 W also unfolds lengthways, but over 2.50 m, for 11 kg — as much as a Volta station. It is the panel for a pitch you settle into, not for a rucksack.

If the panel is there to save you driving home to recharge, take the 200 W. If it is there so you never hit zero, the 100 W is enough. The 300 W is for staying several days in one place, with the room to spread it out.

TO GO WITH IT

What you need to connect it

Volta stations ship with the solar connection cable: nothing to add. The multi-connector adapter, at €30, is only needed to connect the panel to a station of another brand.

The sun recharges. You stay put.

BEFORE YOU ORDER

What this product cannot do

The 100 W figure is measured in laboratory conditions: 1,000 W/m², cell at 25 °C, tolerance ± 5 %. Under a real sky, with the panel poorly angled or in strong heat, output drops noticeably — the manufacturer's data sheet states −0.38 % per degree above 25 °C.

At 100 W, filling 1 kWh takes about ten hours of full sun at best, and more in everyday use. To refill a whole station between two stops, the 200 W is better suited.

The output is MC4: connecting to the DC input of a Volta station goes through the adapter in the cable kit.

A panel is not a substitute for a mains charge before you leave.
