The Rich Solar RV kits 100w # RS27VR, 200w # RS37VR, 400w # RS97VR, and 1,200w # RS67VR are true complete kits. That means you’ll get:

Pre-drilled rigid monocrystalline panels
MPPT solar charge controller
MC4 cables and mounting brackets
Port to communicate with BT-1 Bluetooth module (module not included in all kits; might need to buy separately)
Wire, fuse, and hardware for rooftop-to-battery installation

If your rig has no entry plate, we recommend adding:
MC4 cable entry plate
Butyl tape + self-leveling sealant for waterproof mounting

Thanks! Does the kit come with an inverter too, or do I need to buy that separately to power standard AC appliances?

@Micky Great question! The Rich Solar kits don’t include an inverter (most solar kits don't), so you’ll need to add one separately if you want to power standard 120V household items like a coffee maker, laptop, or TV. These kits are designed to charge your 12V battery bank, and from there, an inverter converts that stored DC power from the battery into usable AC power. So the solar really has nothing to do with an inverter. Let me know what kind of devices you want to run and how often, and I’d be happy to help size an inverter that fits your setup! Keep in mine, you may already have one in your RV. If you have electrical outlets that work, you definitely have an inverter already.
