Overview
This is Renogy's ShadowFlux 200 W panel: 68 N-type monocrystalline cells (4 by 17) behind low-iron tempered glass in an anti-corrosion anodized aluminium frame, about 35 mm thick and 12 kg. Peak power is 200 W at STC with Voc 23 V, Vmp 19.2 V, Isc 11.05 A and Imp 10.42 A, and a published module efficiency of 19.2%, the highest of any Renogy panel indexed here. The ShadowFlux name refers to the cell and busbar layout (Renogy states 16 busbars against a conventional 5), which Renogy positions as reducing the output loss a panel suffers when part of it is shaded by a tree, mast, roof line or snow. It is a fixed-mount panel rather than a folding or flexible one: it feeds an external charge controller through a 13 AWG cable and MC4 connectors, and no controller is included. Renogy rates it from -40 to 90 C and states a 25-year power-output warranty (5 year 95%, 10 year 90%, 25 year 80%) plus a 5-year material and workmanship warranty.
Variant note: Current 200W ShadowFlux Anti-Shading N-Type (SKU RSP200DC-ASR-US). Distinct from the 200W 12V Flexible Monocrystalline (RNG-200DB-72, already indexed), the standard 200W rigid monocrystalline (RSP200DB-72), the 200W N-Type high-efficiency panel whose compact spec strip omits Isc/Imp, and the E.Flex 200W portable panel (RPP200EF-SE).
Data note: All electrical and physical figures taken from Renogy's published Specifications block on 2026-08-14 (SKU RSP200DC-ASR-US). Cell layout stated as 68 cells (4 x 17), N-type monocrystalline, recorded under the schema's 'monocrystalline' enum with the N-type architecture noted in the description (same convention used for the PERC-cell Black Division). Dimensions 1491 x 699 x 35 mm (58.7 x 27.5 x 1.38 in). Weight 12 kg (26.46 lb). Cable 13 AWG, 2.6 ft (~0.9 m). efficiencyPercent 19.2% is the published module efficiency. INGRESS CONFLICT preserved per house rules: the Specifications table states 'Junction Box: IP65' and 'Solar Connectors: IP67', while Renogy's marketing graphics on the same page label the junction box 'IP67 Waterproof'; the authoritative Specifications-table value (IP65) is recorded and the marketing discrepancy is flagged rather than silently resolved. Operating temperature stated as -40 to 194 F (-40 to 90 C) in the spec table; a marketing graphic states 185 F, another minor discrepancy not carried into a field. IMAGE: left empty. The og:image is a seasonal promotional graphic, the SKU-named render (RSP200DC-1.png) is a '16 vs 5 busbars' comparison infographic, and the shadowflux-new_* gallery images are all marketing graphics with burned-in text; the page's other ~400 images are a shared cross-product carousel that cannot be disambiguated to this panel, so no clean single-unit shot could be sourced. outputConnector recorded as MC4 per Renogy's whole-line convention.
Specifications
Rated power, cell type, form factor, connector and weight come from official manufacturer sources; the exact claims and links are in the provenance table. Electrical characteristics and cell efficiency are recorded only where a numeric figure is published, and compatibility with any particular power station is recorded only where the manufacturer states it. A connector type is not a compatibility claim.

Use cases
- RV, camper, boat or cabin rooftops that see partial shade from trees, masts or roof lines during the day
- Fixed off-grid installs wanting the highest efficiency per area of any Renogy panel indexed here (19.2%)
- 12 V charging where the durability of a glass-and-frame N-type panel is preferred over a flexible laminate
Strengths and weaknesses
Strengths
- Highest published module efficiency of any Renogy panel in this index (19.2%)
- N-type cells with a 16-busbar layout Renogy positions for better partial-shade performance
- Full published electrical characteristics (Voc, Vmp, Imp, Isc)
- 25-year power-output warranty (5yr/95%, 10yr/90%, 25yr/80%) plus 5-year material warranty
- Low-iron tempered glass and anti-corrosion anodized aluminium frame
Weaknesses
- Heavy: 12 kg for 200 W, a rigid framed panel not intended to be carried or folded
- No hero image is published in this record: Renogy's product-page imagery for this panel is all marketing graphics with burned-in text, so none met the image-sourcing rules and the field is left empty rather than filled with a wrong shot
- Renogy's marketing graphics label the junction box IP67 while the Specifications table states IP65; the spec-table value is recorded and the discrepancy is noted
- Anti-shading benefit is a manufacturer positioning claim, not a figure this index can independently rank
- No charge controller included (this is a component)
