JinKo Solar panel review - Updated September 2024




JinKo currently have available in the Australian market...

440W Neo black frame, 'N' type cells, (1762mm x 1134m = 22.02% efficient)
440W Satin all-black, 'N' type cells, (1762mm x 1134m = 22.02% efficient)
475W Neo black frame, 'N' type cells, (1903mm x 1134mm = 22.01% efficient)

These are all split cell modules.

JinKo are a solid, dependable brand who have brought many innovations to market and are much copied.

My experience with JinKo is that they are reliable, never had a faulty one, and do what they claim on the box.

The 440W models are a few mm longer than some other brands that have 22.5% to 23.6% efficiency.

Good choice, especially if you want an all-black panel.

Their low voltage/high current electrical characteristics allow for typically 13 or 14 on a string with
550W to 600W single phase inverters and 23 panels per string with 1000V three phase inverters.

Defect warranty is 25 years (see linked datasheets)
JinKo have an Australian office and support team (but I haven't needed to call them).
