I currently have a 150W flexible solarpanel stuck to my pop top which has now failed after about 5 years.
I have a new panel waiting to be fitted but was just wondering 2 things.
1) I know it's not ideal, but bonding it directly onto the old panel is OK isn't it? (The old panel shows no signs...
Hi
I have a 4 panel array 200w Bluetti solarpanel that we use in conjunction with an AC70 Power station. The panels take up quite a bit of space when folded flat, might seem a daft question but is there any reason why I should not store the panels opened out flat between the pop top roof and...
Hi, I’m trying to understand if this portable solarpanel is as simple as connecting it together as shown by the diagram, which then can run my 12v fridge and lights off grid?
So basically, I connect the converter to the panel. Then the converter directly to the leisure battery via the...
Has anyone fitted a remote switch or circuit breaker to turn on and off the solarpanel out put ?
As many will know being able to turn off the solar input to the renogy charger allows faster dc to dc charging. Getting in and out to use a manual switch/circuit braker at the back of the van is a...
...that my panel isnt charging the battery when its sunny in the middle of the day. I know this sounds odd. It does however charge in the morning. I get between 10 and 12v from the solarpanel but no Current.....
I disconnected it from the Victron MPPT yesterday and the panel was showing 10.5v.
I'm slightly concerned that since having a solarpanel and Lazer lamps fitted by a converter my van battery (main battery) has completely died twice in a very short space of time.
This is a brand new VW installed battery three months ago on a 21 plate van. The solar is connected to a three...
...- as bought the van partly converted, but we decided to switch it off for flexible panel when we popped the roof.

Am potentially getting an ecoflow D2 this week. Wondering if anyone has a compact solarpanel setup for sale near Huddersfield?
Or, can anyone recommend one for £100 or less?
Cheers
Posting in case there might be an alternative explanation to my probable solarpanel failure.
I mainly only use the van for one night at a time, as such I don't pay that much attention to my power setup other than a couple of glances at the Victron app to see how it's doing.
Given the strange...
...a fried brain, so apologies if the answers already out here.
I have the D250SE installed, and have just purchased a Dokio 100w foldable solarpanel. I read a bit about COV, and took note that for the D250 SE it's 23v. The Dokio panel spec on Amazon stated the COV as 22.5v. However, the...
Hiya, I noticed peeling of a thin transparent film layer on top of my flex solarpanel - 11 months old. It doesn't look like the packaging protective film, but not sure. Solar power output is working but not sure if I have lost any effectivity because of it.
Any ideas? Can I just peel it off?
...However, this set up just about copes with the daily draw on it by trickle charging when driving.
But I'm wondering about a small solarpanel either fixed to the roof or a suitcase variety. (Probably fixed in fairness)
My question is, what do I need to connect the solarpanel (thinking of...
Two new Campere/Lilie SPL105 105W solarpanels, rigid panels that support parallel connection (avoiding electricity yield reduction when partially shaded).
These panels don't suffer the expansion problems of semi-flexible panels resulting in much longer life in campervan and motorhome...
Hi there. I have a cheap briefcase style solarpanel , which I use to charge up the power banks and usb devices. What cables would I need to connect it Upto a victron controller ? The leads coming out of the back of panel are are shown in the photo attached, they aren't the usual MC4 type. Thanks .
Any solar experts out there ? I have 2 of these panels in parallel, I don’t seem to get more than 1 amp of charge at a time if I’m very lucky (usually about 0. Something) even in full sun when battery is low ?
I have a ctek d250se dc-dc with built in solar controller . Do you think the panels...
Hi all,
Novice here, I’m wanting to remove the rear pod from my T6 in order to deaden and insulate but need advice on safely disconnecting leisure battery and solar. Can I simply disconnect the solar feed to the MPPT followed by the wires from the MPPT to the battery? If so, how could I make...
Just seen this Solarpanel reviewed on one of my regular YouTube watch lists. Anyone seen anything similar from a UK supplier?
Very good results in the shade and not overpriced.
Contacted the Company in the U.S but unfortunately they don't have any European importers as yet and shipping would...
I’m going to be upgrading my vans power soon and changing to lithium.
I have a flexi solarpanel on the roof and presume it’s 100w.
I’m wanting to upgrade this to at least a 200w panel and read through the various solarpanel threads but am wanting to know what’s the best panel to upgrade to...
