PRE RELEASE. Unlike many opinionated reviews, the Solar Review Panel Assessment Criteria compares the TW Solar 60S Panel against the industries best known specifications.  The result, a solar panel review with no room for discretionary bias and the transparency you desire.  

.Make and model:  TW Solar 60S Panel.

Variants:  325 / 330 / 335 / 340 / 345 / 350 W.

  Panel Efficiency & Enhancer.

  Damp Heat & Thermal Cycle Testing.

GREATER THAN 3.3 IS A VERY GOOD SCORE. The following content for the TW Solar 60S panel should be used as a guide only. Individual circumstances and compatibilities should always be taken into account when selecting the right solar panel for any given installation. This content has been built using the Solar Review Module Assessment Criteria 2.0 and above based on available product specifications at the time of writing.
