When using the Go Power Solar All-Electric Kit #342-75011 that you referenced a minimum of 6 batteries is recommended for the battery bank. To maximum usage and performance of this system you will want to use 6-8 batteries. I have attached a diagram…
Hi Alicia, we get this question a lot, and its a really important one if you’re trying to stay cool while off-grid. The short answer is: unfortunately, the Rich Solar 100w kit #RS27VR and 200w #RS37VR won’t be able to power your air conditioner…
Hey Lorenzo. Your 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 has what's called Pulse Wave Modulation, which will not provide the wireless cameras with the correct power it needs to run when connected. This is a power saving feature in newer trucks. To fix…
Hey Dave, the wiring that comes with the etrailer RV Solar Panel Kit part #e59FV is 7.5 meters long. I attached a diagram that shows how multiple panels attach to the controller. This is compatible with lithium batteries too. Is this first time with…
Hi Marty; depending on what your solar pre-wiring entails the Go Power PWM Solar Charge Controller #GP76QR and Go Power Overlander Expansion Kit - 200 Watt Solar Panel #34282182 may be what you need. Do you have a sticker somewhere on the wall inside…
RV solar panels are a fantastic way to keep your batteries charged and reduce reliance on generators, especially during off-grid adventures. They are easy to install and can be tailored to fit your energy needs, whether you're maintaining a motorhome or p
Yes, but it depends on the controller. Some systems require wiring batteries in parallel, which might not suit all setups. Ensure your controller supports multiple outputs if you need to keep separate battery functions.
Performance can vary with weather. Panels work best in direct sunlight, but even on cloudy days, they can provide some charge. In winter or poor sun orientation, consider additional panels or battery capacity to maintain charge levels.
Installation is generally straightforward, with many finding the instructions clear and simple. However, some setups may require additional components like inverters or entry plates. Pre-wired RVs simplify the process, while older models might need more effort.
Common issues include missing components like plugs or entry plates, and the need for higher output controllers for larger setups. It's also important to ensure all parts are compatible and that the system meets your energy needs.
Consider your energy needs, panel size, and compatibility with your RV's existing electrical system. If you plan to expand your setup, ensure your controller can handle additional panels. Also, think about the climate and sun exposure where you'll be using them.
