solar panel

Hello. I'm new to this group so Thank You in advance for any help. I want to add a solar panel to our Clipper 9.0 Express and not sure what wattage I should get or where to get the appropriate connecting cables to attach it to our camper. I'm looking at the Jackery SolarSaga 100W or the Zamp...

Hi, I'm wondering if this is a solar panel connector on top of my 2022 palomino ss550? Bought it used and they didn't tell me. THanks, Marc

ok so i'm going to install 2 solar panels this week on my 2023 23mkbl and still nervous about drilling holes in roof.after watching many videos and reading lots of posts I have a general idea on what to do but I don't want to drill a bunch of holes looking for a stud, truss, etc.I have reached...

I am new. I just purchased a 2018 Grandby model. It came with a single, factory installed, solar panel mounted to the Yakima tracks. If I was to add a 2nd panel up there, is it prewired for that or is it going to be a big deal? There appears to be plenty of room to fit a second one there...

I have a 2022 Flagstaff MicroLite 21FBRS. It came with 190 Watt rooftop solar panels. My question is - Do I need to do anything/add something to make them work? Or will they charge my batteries automatically? Also, there is an outside port to add portable solar panels. Same question - is there...

Our Wolf Pup 16FQ has the 50-watt solar panel and a new 225ah GSM battery. Even with decent sunlight, it just doesn't keep up with our 12v fridge, as needed pumps and some lights. So even when we conserve carefully, we have to carry an extra battery or use our inverter generator to recharge our...

I have a 2005 Salem LE which has the luan roofing (no ladder). For people who mounted solar panels using Well Nuts to secure the brackets, what are the specification well nuts did you use? How thick is the roof? Thanks

My 2608BS has, from the factory, two (2) 190w solar panels, a control panel, and a 1000w inverter. My question is when connecting additional solar panels to the factory exterior jack can I connect the panels directly to the trailer or do they need to be connected to a controller first?

I currently have my 2014 FR Berkshire 400bh on shore power at an RV resort in Florida, and all batteries are fully charged. I have to put my RV into storage for the entire month of February. However, there is no power access at the storage place. I want to maintain the batteries charged and keep...

Any recommendations what to use for mounting brackets for solar panels on rubber roofs? Anyone have pictures of theirs?

I have a 190W GoPower overlander panel with the GoPower GP-PWM-30-UL controller. Max solar input voltage is 35v so adding another panel would be limited to wiring in parallel. My original plan was to just add another 190W GoPower panel but at over $500 that is not an option. My question is can...

We have a new 2022 Cedar Creek Champagne 38EL 5th-wheel trailer and it came standard with a solar panel on the roof and a Go Power GP-PWM-30-SQ charge controller. I'm wondering if I need to have the battery disconnect on (battery connected) for the charge controller to charge the battery. I...

I would like to install 4 100 w panels on the roof of my Rockwood. I don't like climbing around on the roof now that I am in my 70s. I called the only local RV dealer that does this kind of thing. They quoted me a labor rate of $140 per hour. I cannot even believe this. Who else might be...

I am new to pop up camping. I just purchased a 2022 forest river rockwood 1910 sport pop up camper. I have the solar package and I can't for the life of me figure out how to switch to running the lights off of battery power. I spent about an hour trying to figure it out. Any help would be...

We have a early year 2020 Real Lite 1604 with the solar connectors on the roof and a 115 ah AGM battery. We are looking at 2 or 3, 100watt flexible solar panels for the roof. Is it just a plug and play scenario or is there a charge controller we need to invest in? I understand that gluing these...

Fresh owner of an A122S that came with roof mounted solar panel. Since it's fixed mounted, I can only expect it to work as a charger while traveling to keep the fridge cold. Would this mean I would not connect the aux power on the 7 pin plug from the TV? Anyone has experiences with this setup?

I will probably have to keep the bus outside this winter. I have two 170 panels on the roof. Do I need to worry about the snow load.

We have a Flagstaff Microlite 21DS. Considering covering for winter (parked in driveway in TX). We have a solar panel on top. Not sure what covering the panel will do other than not charge the batteries. We plan to keep the RV plugged in to shore and leave the batteries installed. Inverter...

Is the in-line solar panel positive cable fuse located inside the interior wiring junction behind the Go Power control module, outside the trailer in the solar power positive cable connected to the battery, or in the fuse panel? I have either overlooked it or simply can’t find it.

I have a 2021 FR3 34ds that came with a Merlin Travelpro 30 controller. It comes with one panel but can handle up to three panels. What panel should I be trying to purchase to match or at least be compatible with the existing one?

I have two 100W solar panels in parallel with unstable Amperage readings and fluctuate between 6.xA and up to 7.9A total. I get solid readings up to 5.9A from both using them individually. I should be getting up to 11.8A solid readings when in parallel. Tested today with no clouds or cover...

Quick preventative tip: Tore the **** out of my cover a couple times over the past year when adjusting and removing. Replaced the cover and added these corner guards to prevent the sharp corners from tearing it.

Hi guys, I’ve posted before on my upgrades to the pop up. I have a 75/15 that I’d like to over panel with a single full size panel on the rack on the roof. I also plan to get a suitcase for days when I want to deploy and move around the suitcase. Neither would be hardwired, but more plug...

I have a surveyor 19BHLE. I just removed the 80 watt panel from the roof and will be installing one 200 watt panel now, and potentially a second one later. there is plenty of room both forward and aft of the AC unit, if I mount the panels perpendicular to the centerline of the trailer. I will...

One of my old 25 W harbor freight solar panels blew off the roof of my workshop trailer. Here’s what it looks like. And the amazing thing is it still kicking out 22 1/2 volts. I’m guessing it was five years old as well. So much for worrying about a leaf blocking out the Sun.
