Re: [Electric Boats] Mount flexible solar panels by the eyelets only?

I would use something like Lexan rather than Aluminum. Though I really don't think it is necessary as long as the panels are not waving like flags in the wind.

Thanks for the feedbacks Hannu and Mike!
I guess I should glue a sheet/plate of aluminium on each of the panels to make them stiffer.

No.

No experience with panels specifically, but nothing that size will last while vibrating in the wind.
They are just too thin to last, without a substrate or backing of some kind.

I have no experience with flexible solar panels, but many of you do - what is your opinions/experiences: are flexible panels durable enough to be mounted by the eyelets only?
