The Renogy 175W Flexible Panel is a 175-watt monocrystalline (flexible) option best suited to curved rv and mobile home roofs. Ultra-thin lamination under 0.1 in thick.
Overview
The Renogy 175W flexible monocrystalline panel is a lightweight, bendable module for curved RV roofs, boat decks, and other surfaces where a rigid frame won't sit flat.
At well under the weight of a comparable glass panel, it adds meaningful output to a mobile roof without the load penalty of a framed module — a practical middle ground between small portable panels and a full rigid array.
Features & real-world use
Flexible and durable
The panel bends up to 248° — far past a stiffer flexible panel's ~30° — so it follows a curved roof or deck without the stress cracks that end rigid modules.
Small and light enough to bring anywhere
At about 6.2 lbs and just 0.08 in thick (59.2 × 26.5 in), it adds almost nothing to a roof's load and sits nearly flush.
Advanced layered construction
An anti-scratch, high-transparency ETFE surface over EVA film, high-efficiency mono cells, and a TPT backsheet for better heat dissipation and a longer life.
Weather resistant
An IP68 waterproof junction box, IP67 MC4 connectors, and 2400Pa wind / 5400Pa snow ratings keep it working through real weather.
Installation ready
Six metal-reinforced mounting holes and quick-assembly MC4 connectors make for a fast, secure install on an RV or other surface.
Backed for decades
A 25-year power-output warranty and a 5-year materials-and-workmanship warranty stand behind the panel.
Built for any roof, deck, or vehicle
At 6.2 lbs and 0.08 in thick, the Renogy 175W flexes up to 248° to follow a curved roof or deck and fastens through six reinforced holes — mounting low-profile where a rigid framed panel can't sit.
RV & trailer roofs
Follows the crown of a fiberglass or aluminum roof and sits nearly flush, secured through its six reinforced mounting holes.
Camper vans & conversions
Thin and light for a high-top or pop-top roof, with a low profile that helps aerodynamics.
Boats & marine decks
Bends to a cabin top or deck and stands up to spray thanks to its IP68 junction box and IP67 connectors.
Airstreams & curved rigs
The 248° flex wraps a curved trailer or teardrop where rigid panels can't sit.
Mobile & manufactured homes
Adds minimal roof load and mounts low, well within a thin roof's dead-load budget.
Cabins & sheds
A lightweight way to power a small off-grid outbuilding without a mounting rack.

👎 Cons
- Verify roof load capacity and mounting before installation
Is the Renogy 175W Flexible Panel right for your mobile home?
Choose this panel if your priority is curved rv and mobile home roofs. Because it is a flexible, low-profile panel, it can usually go straight onto a manufactured roof without exceeding the 10–15 psf dead-load limit.
