Question:

hello, we are looking into purchasing 2 solar panels for our Lance camper and interested in Go Power brand. The camper is already wired for solar and we currently use a fold up Go power solar kit but would like to pursue a permanent mount. We only have two areas on top of the camper where it work for panels a 40 x 30 in and 50 x 30 in. Would we be able to use the Flex kit 100 watt and the eco kit 80 watt together with the digital controller coming with the Flex kit? Also, how high off the roof of the camper does it hold the panel if we use the hardware supplied? It appears to be approx an inch? Thanks

The Go Power 100-Watt Solar Flex Kit # 34272630 includes a digital controller and so does the 80-Watt Eco Kit # 34272627. Since you need only one controller I suggest adding the expansion panel to avoid having duplicate parts.

You can use the Go Power Retreat-E Expansion Kit # 34272634 which has a panel that measures 47-1/16 long x 21-7/16 wide x 1-3/8 deep along with the Go Power Eco Solar Kit # 34272627 which has a panel that is 30-3/4 long x 26-1/2 wide x 1-3/8 deep. This combination will give you two panels, one controller and the dimensions are close to your requirements.

These will be about 3-inches above the mounting surface once installed.
