Thanks to the use of **Bifacial Dual Glass** construction, these panels effectively absorb reflected light hitting the rear side, significantly increasing the total annual energy yield. Choosing this series effectively solves the problem of limited roof space by offering higher power density and excellent resistance to light- and temperature-induced degradation. The aesthetic **Black Frame** finish makes the installation look modern, perfectly blending with dark roof coverings. The robust glass-glass construction ensures exceptional mechanical durability and resistance to aggressive weather factors, as confirmed by a **30-year performance warranty**. This product is dedicated to demanding private investors and companies that focus on maximizing profits and system longevity. What sets them apart from the competition is significantly better performance in diffused light and a minimal annual power drop, which guarantees energy stability for decades. These panels are the optimal choice wherever the highest reliability must go hand-in-hand with elegance and the latest photovoltaic technology. ## Notable figures - At 21.5% efficiency, this panel is on par with typical \*\*TOPCon 400-450W\*\* modules - Power density of 215.1 W/m² is 5.1 W/m² below \*\*TOPCon 400-450W\*\* median (220.2 W/m²) - needs more roof space - At -0.30%/°C, hot weather performance is typical for \*\*TOPCon 400-450W\*\* panels - At 24.7 kg, this panel is 2.7 kg heavier than the \*\*TOPCon 400-450W\*\* median (22.0 kg) - more demanding for installation crews - 80% bifaciality enables rear-side power generation, boosting yield by 4-12% on reflective surfaces ## Questions ### What warranty comes with the VSUN N-108BMH-DG-BB solar panels? The VSUN N-108BMH-DG-BB series is backed by a 25-year product warranty and a 30-year linear power performance warranty. This means the manufacturer commits to repairing or replacing modules with manufacturing defects for 25 years, while guaranteeing a defined minimum percentage of rated power output over 30 years, ensuring stable energy yield throughout the system's lifetime. ### What is N-type TOPCon technology and how does it differ from the common PERC cells? TOPCon (Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact) is a newer generation of N-type silicon cells that, compared to P-type PERC cells, offer higher efficiency, lower light-induced degradation (LID), and better performance at high temperatures and low-light conditions. As a result, VSUN N-108BMH-DG-BB panels deliver more consistent energy output year-round, especially during periods of lower irradiance. ### Do the bifacial VSUN N-108BMH-DG-BB panels actually produce more energy? Yes, the Bifacial Dual Glass construction allows the rear side of the panel to capture light reflected from the roof, wall, or ground surface. In practice, this delivers an additional energy gain ranging from a few percent up to double digits compared to monofacial panels, though the actual effect depends on mounting height, ground albedo, and installation tilt angle. ### How much power does a single VSUN N-108BMH-DG-BB panel generate? A panel from the VSUN N-108BMH-DG-BB series reaches a maximum power output of up to 430 Wp under standard test conditions (STC). This is a competitive figure for 108 half-cut cell TOPCon modules, enabling high power density on limited roof space, which matters most for installations with restricted mounting area. ### Is VSUN a Tier 1 manufacturer, and does that matter when choosing solar panels? VSUN does not currently appear on the Bloomberg NEF Tier 1 manufacturer list, a classification primarily tied to bank financing scale rather than product quality itself. The panels pass standard certifications (IEC, TÜV) and carry long-term warranties, so it's worth evaluating them on technical parameters and warranty terms individually rather than relying solely on Tier 1 status. ### Does the Dual Glass construction of the VSUN N-108BMH-DG-BB require special mounting on a sloped roof? No, dual-glass panels are installed on standard mounting structures used for sloped roofs, similar to panels with a standard frame and backsheet. However, note the slightly higher weight of the module due to the double glass layer, and ensure adequate rear ventilation to fully benefit from the bifacial light absorption potential. ## Datasheet [Manufacturer datasheet (PDF)](https://comparepv.com/datasheets/661e0d695c348-3288fbee8056.pdf) ## Alternatives | Panel | Power | How it differs | | --- | --- | --- | | [Just Solar JST-EDMH-(445-465)W-TD (465W class)](https://comparepv.com/panel/just-solar-jst-edmh-445-465-w-td-465w-class) | 465 W | +45 W, lighter, +2.3 pp | | [Luxor Solar LX-465M/182R-96+ GG](https://comparepv.com/panel/luxor-lx-465m-182r-96-gg) | 465 W | +45 W, cooler, +2.3 pp | | [Maxeon SPR-MAX7-470](https://comparepv.com/panel/maxeon-spr-max7-470) | 470 W | +50 W, +2.2 pp, +10 yr warranty | | [AIKO AIKO-A470-MAH54Mb](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a470-mah54mb) | 470 W | +50 W, cooler, +2.1 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A460-MAH54Mb](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-shenzhen-aiko-digital-energy-technology-co-ltd-aiko-a460-mah54mb-1) | 460 W | +40 W, lighter, +2.1 pp | | [TCL Zhonghuan HSM-BD54-LA470](https://comparepv.com/panel/tcl-zhonghuan-hsm-bd54-la470) | 470 W | +50 W, cooler, +2.1 pp | | [VSUN VSUN390-108BMH-DG](https://comparepv.com/panel/vsun-vsun390-108bmh-dg) | 390 W | -30 W, hotter, -1.5 pp | | [VSUN VSUN395-108BMH-DG](https://comparepv.com/panel/vsun-vsun395-108bmh-dg) | 395 W | -25 W, hotter, -1.3 pp | | [VSUN VSUN400-108BMH-DG](https://comparepv.com/panel/vsun-vsun400-108bmh-dg) | 400 W | -20 W, hotter, -1.0 pp | | [VSUN VSUN405-108BMH-DG](https://comparepv.com/panel/vsun-vsun405-108bmh-dg) | 405 W | -15 W, hotter, -0.8 pp | | [VSUN VSUN410-108BMH](https://comparepv.com/panel/vsun-vsun410-108bmh) | 410 W | Hotter, lighter, -0.5 pp | | [VSUN VSUN415N-108MH](https://comparepv.com/panel/vsun-vsun415n-108mh) | 415 W | Lighter, -0.3 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-510M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-510m) | 510 W | +90 W, cooler, +3.5 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A495-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a495-mce54mw) | 495 W | +75 W, cooler, +3.3 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-505M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-505m) | 505 W | +85 W, cooler, +3.2 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A490-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a490-mce54mw) | 490 W | +70 W, cooler, +3.0 pp | --- Source: https://comparepv.com/panel/vsun-vsun420n-108bmh-dg-bb Not in this file, on the page: the I-V and temperature curves lifted from the manufacturer's datasheet, a thirty-year output simulator, a bifacial gain calculator and alternatives filtered by how closely they match these dimensions.
