Great value solar panels that won’t break the bank
The Cheetah solar panels from Jinko are known for being one of the most cost-effective and efficient on the market. As a popular choice among Australians, the Cheetah range has expanded to include new panels with more cells and a greater output capacity. There are panels ranging from 325W to 380W, and both the standard 60 cell size and the 66 are available.
While the Cheetah lacks the high efficiency of the other Tiger models, it still performs extremely well as a budget panel at a 20.38% efficiency. The compact size is also appealing to many Australian residents looking to utilise clean energy to power their home even with a smaller roof size.
