Question:

2022 Rockwood Roo, Looking for a portable panel to help with power when I’m at a campground with no electricity Which would be best? And sure I’d need a longer attachment to the camper for this. Thanks in advance Jeff

Hey Jeff, we can definitely help with portable solar power but it really comes down to how much power you are in need of. For example the etrailer kit part # e62PR that you referenced can help provide up to 100 watts. Or if you are looking for something more than that we also have the part # GZ66FR which is capable of up to 300 watts.

Are you missing a battery in that picture?

Pulled them out to trickle charge but both we had, replacing them with new, also sent a picture of my exterior receptacle to be sure I had the correct hook up plug. I’d like to run my a/c and fridge for sure and some lights, I go to some sites that don’t allow generators.

@JeffZ If plan is to run an AC and fridge off the batteries you'd probably want as big of a portable setup as we offer like the part # GZ66FR. The 300 watt kit is capable of putting out up to 25 amps when the sun is out so that would do a decent job keeping the batteries topped off. This does use HPP fittings though so going with the part # 34282610 would be a better option as it comes with the SAE style of connector you are looking for that matches what you have.

@JamesonC what will I need to get to use this when I buy? I’m ready to purchase? Again I have a 2022 Rockwood Roo 235s

@JeffZ The # 34282610 has the same connectors as the port on your camper so it would plug right in if that is what you were wanting to do. Or you could wire them directly to the battery. You wouldn't need any additional wiring or anything else.
