Question:
I would like to purchase the 130 watt Portable solar panel. I have a 2020 Thor Quantum Class C, pre wired with Go Power Controller model # GP-PWM-10-SQ, there is a Go Power cable entry plate mounted on roof. I believe the Go Power MC4 Output Connector Cable connects to the roof mount. Are there MC4 connections on the Portable Solar Panel and can the Portable Solar Panel be bought by itself and not as a kit with an additional controller which I do not need.

The panels we sell all come in kits with the solar controller included so you won't be able to get just the panel. The Go Power Portable Solar Panel with Digital Solar Controller - 130 Watt Solar Panel Item # 34282730 is a great choice because it will allow you to park in the shade and place the panel in the sun to allow for max output. It doesn't have MC4 connections but has four different adapters that will run from its solar controller to your battery. There is also an Extension Cable for Go Power Portable Solar Kit - 30' Long Item # 34270356 to increase the distance you can place it from your camper.
If you'd rather have a one time install and have no extra work to do the Go Power Overlander Solar Charging System with Digital Solar Controller - 200 Watt Solar Panel Item # 34282181 will mount to the roof and connect to your MC4 port. You can just hold onto the solar controller incase you have any issues with the GP-PWM-10-SQ that you already have. The GP-PWM-10-SQ you have runs up to 190 watts so this kit will give you the max output the solar controller can supply.
