The Apollos are about 4x more expensive than a similar Renogy.

You will love it once it is installed. I just bought one of these for my boat. It is a good price.

David found it. The name is ApolloFlex, not Apollo Solar. My fault. Another cool thing about these panels is how much power they put out for their size. The 70W panel is only 31"x21". That's tiny for 70W.

Alt-E has good prices and the people are helpful. These are the folks that sponsored the solar installers conference I attended in February.

Foldable Solar Panels

And at $626.95 each you are welcome to them. That's too much $$$ for me.

There are cheaper ones. You just have to shop around. Here's a 100W semi-flexible panel from Grape Solar at Home Depot for $298.
