Prices are what they are for a premium, low volume product. They easily could be higher, but for a leisure type product, are not horrible. This YouTube guy has experimented with using Eternabond to tape down the perimeter of a module directly to the RV rooftop with pretty good success. He also has videos of him screwing them down through the grommets and sealing the perimeter with Dicor. A great many RV rooftops are not fiberglass, but a rubber membrane with thin plywood beneath, so some substance to be had.

They look good, but the price/ watt is going back to the 1990s.....:-( What's your recommended attachment method for these? We get quite a few RVers calling, but I really am not into punching holes into fiberglass roofs with unknown structure beneath.

Check out Gigasolarpv.com They make a composite material with crystaline cells. They get 156 watt from a 36 cell module.

One that you can move around, (it’s going to fall over)and connect with a cable to an camper. The old unisolar ones were perfect. Any recommendations are appreciated Size? 50-100 watts, 12v nominal.
