Cascadia 4x4
Reference: CHF155
The Cascadia 4x4 CHF155 is a vehicle-specific 37W hood-mounted solar panel designed for the Jeep Wrangler JL Rubicon (2018–2025) and Jeep Gladiator JT Rubicon (2020–2025). Featuring high-efficiency monocrystalline solar cells, SolarClasp™ mounting technology, a durable ETFE surface, and MC4 connectors, it helps maintain your vehicle's battery during daily driving, overlanding adventures, and extended parking. Engineered specifically for Jeep applications, it delivers OEM-style integration without sacrificing valuable roof rack space.
A hood panel with a Mopar catalogue number. Not because someone wrote so in a description, but because Cascadia 4x4 solar systems sit in the Affiliated Accessories catalogue under their own numbers. Details below.
The Cascadia 4x4 CHF155 Hood Solar Panel Module is a premium vehicle-specific solar solution engineered exclusively for the Jeep Wrangler JL Rubicon (2018–2025) and Jeep Gladiator JT Rubicon (2020–2025). Unlike universal flexible solar panels, the CHF155 is designed to integrate seamlessly with the factory hood, providing reliable off-grid charging while maintaining the rugged appearance of your Jeep.
Whether you're building an overland vehicle, traveling off-grid, camping for multiple days, or simply want to keep your battery healthy during daily use, the Cascadia 4x4 hood-mounted solar panel delivers dependable charging whenever your Jeep is exposed to sunlight.
Modern Jeep builds often include power-hungry accessories such as:
Even when these accessories are turned off, they continue to place a small load on the vehicle's electrical system. Over time, this can discharge the battery—especially if the vehicle sits unused for days or weeks.
The 37W Cascadia CHF155 continuously harvests solar energy throughout the day, helping maintain battery charge and extending battery life without requiring external charging equipment.
Many flexible solar panels available on the market are originally designed for RVs, boats, or portable applications and simply adapted for automotive use.
Cascadia 4x4 takes a completely different approach.
Every hood solar panel is engineered specifically for off-road vehicles, combining factory-grade fitment, premium materials, and long-term durability in harsh environments.
The CHF155 precisely follows the contours of the Jeep Rubicon hood, creating a clean factory-inspired appearance while maximizing usable solar surface.
No bulky brackets.
No roof rack space required.
No portable panels to unpack every time you stop.
Your Jeep becomes its own charging station.
One of Cascadia 4x4's biggest advantages is its patented SolarClasp™ mounting system.
Unlike permanently bonded solar panels, SolarClasp securely mounts the panel while allowing future removal or replacement if necessary.
The mounting system also creates a controlled air gap between the hood and the solar panel.
This airflow reduces heat buildup beneath the panel, helping improve efficiency since solar cells naturally perform better at lower operating temperatures.
The result is improved long-term performance and a cleaner installation.
The CHF155 uses high-efficiency monocrystalline solar cells with approximately 22.7–22.9% conversion efficiency.
Combined with Cascadia's Contiguous Cell™ technology, the panel maximizes usable cell area while reducing traditional weak points found in many flexible solar panels.
This innovative construction improves durability against:
The result is a solar panel specifically engineered for demanding overland travel.
Instead of inexpensive PET coatings commonly found on budget flexible panels, Cascadia utilizes a premium matte ETFE surface.
Benefits include:
The matte finish is particularly important on hood-mounted installations because it minimizes unwanted reflections toward the driver.
Unlike portable solar panels that must be unpacked, positioned, and secured every time you stop, the CHF155 works automatically whenever sunlight reaches your hood.
Whether you're:
the panel continuously produces energy without any additional setup.
The panel uses industry-standard MC4 connectors and includes a 190 cm (75") cable, making installation straightforward with an appropriate solar charge controller.
For optimal charging performance, Cascadia recommends pairing the panel with the Cascadia 4x4 Bluetooth MPPT Charge Controller, which allows system monitoring and configuration through the CascadiaTether™ Bluetooth App.
A solar charge controller is required for proper operation and is sold separately. Cascadia recommends using its Bluetooth MPPT Charge Controller for maximum charging efficiency and complete system monitoring.
The manufacturer lists the CHF155 panel as fitting:
If your vehicle is not on the list, get in touch — Cascadia 4x4 makes hood panels for other models as well.
There is a simple way to tell whether a hood solar panel is a serious product or a sheet from a wholesaler: check whether it has a catalogue number. Cascadia 4x4 solar systems have their own Mopar catalogue numbers, in the Affiliated Accessories category — the same catalogue you order parts for your Jeep from.
| Mopar number | Vehicle | Wattage per Mopar | Model years |
| 68678826AA | Jeep Wrangler (JL), Jeep Gladiator standard hood | 85 W | 2018–2026 |
| 68678827AA | Jeep Wrangler (JL), Jeep Gladiator Rubicon and Mojave hood | 30 W | 2018–2025 |
| 68678825AA | Jeep Wrangler (JK) standard hood | 100 W | 2008–2018 |
| 68678829AA | Ram 2500–3500 | 85 W | 2010–2025 |
The wattages above are quoted exactly as the Mopar catalogue states them. The current Cascadia datasheet for this panel may state a different figure — the technical data for this particular product is in the section below.
To be clear: this is not a part manufactured by Mopar and we do not sell it as a genuine Jeep part. It is an affiliated accessory — an independent brand whose product passed a review serious enough to earn its own number in the group catalogue. You get into a programme like that; you cannot buy your way in with advertising.
Behind the catalogue number sits the rest: monocrystalline cells from a German plant, systems assembled in Canada, a factory certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001 and SA8000, panels compliant with IEC 61215 and IEC 61730, CE marking and RoHS and REACH compliance. Every model has a datasheet with full electrical and mechanical specification.
Now check the same things on a cheaper alternative. Its maker's website will usually give you no catalogue number, no factory location and not a single certificate — it will give you a list of shipping warehouses.
Warranty: 2 years on the panel with the option to extend to 5 years, 5 years on the charge controller. Claims are handled in Poland — you are not shipping a panel across an ocean.
