FAQ
1.Q:Which kind of extension cord I should purchase with this panel for more mobility from my RV?
A:The Renogy Solar Panel Extension Cable will be able to make more space between your solar panels and the charge controller. There is multiple size choice, please choose the same size of cable for extension. And please also realize that the longer the extension, the greater the line loss. A bigger gauge will be required for longer runs.
2.Q:Can I add more solar panels with the suitcase to expand my system?
A:This solar suitcase is designed for expansion, additional panels are added to the system available based on your needs and space. We suggest you add the same solar suitcase for expansion.
3.Q:Does this suitcase come with a charge controller? What size controller should I use with it?
A:Only the solar suitcase included. But you can search and find a plug-and-play bundle kit including this suitcase and a waterproof Renogy Voyager 20A charger controller. You may also choose the controller according to your system, divide the total power by the battery system voltage, the current value get can be used as a reference for controller selection.
4.Q:What do I need to complete my off-grid solar power system?
A:A solar panel has to be connected to a charge controller to regulate current, and a battery to store the electrical power. You will need adapter kit cables to wire the solar panel(s) and charge controller, and tray cables connecting the charge controller to a deep-cycle battery.
5.Q:Can I use this suitcase to charging my 120v receptacles directly?
A:The suitcase is not able to charge 120V power receptacles directly. Plus a 12v battery and inverter would give the 120v output you would want. The panel would recharge the battery, the battery will store the power, and the inverter would be able to supply the 120v power that you need.
6.Q:Are these monocrystallin or polycrystallin panels?
A:The suitcase with 2 pcs 50W Renogy high-quality monocrystalline solar panels.
7.Q:Can I use this suitcase in ranniy days? Can rain damage the solar kit?
A:The solar panels are fully waterproof with IP66 class. It will be able to work on rainy days and applicable to a wider range of scenarios, such as marine, yacht, etc. But we recommend you to use it with a waterproof charge controller, since water into the regular controller may damage the internal circuitry. You can search and find a bundle system including this suitcase with a waterproof Renogy Voyager 20A charger controller.

There are pros and cons of a portable unit versus installed, stationary solar panels. Fully installed will be more convenient because once installed, you don't have to set them up again. But then you're forced to select campsites that don't result in shading of the solar panels, and you can't really adjust their angle once you've set up the trailer. Portable give you a ton of flexibility on where the panels are placed, customizable for every unique camp site situation. And you can use them in applications outside of just a single trailer. And portable panels don't require drilling more holes in the trailer roof; holes that over time could become sources of water intrusion into the roof. In the end, I selected this portable unit.
It is heavier than I expected. I know the listing is fully accurate on weight. I just thought of 20 pounds as less than it actually is. This is fine, it doesn't really matter. What matters is that they are portable, and do work well. The size is also substantial, but you won't find a smaller 100w solar suitcase, so it's perfectly acceptable, and to be expected. It's nice that it consists of two 50w panels, so compared to a single 100w panel, it does fold up to be half the outer dimensions.
Setup is really easy. Connect the alligator clips to the battery, plug in the charge controller to the panel, and you're done. First time setup includes selecting the battery chemistry. And of course you will need to position the panels on-site for optimal exposure to the sun.
Once it's installed, everything works as it ought to. The charge controller has all the phases you would expect of a good quality controller, despite not being a particularly high-end unit. I like that the controller is attached to the inside of the suitcase, making it really a self-contained system.
The cable that comes with it is just under ten feet in length. This *may* be too short for some applications, and some campsites. I ordered an extension cable, and it can snap in as needed for extra length, and extra positioning options. If ordering an extension, make sure it's one that provides positive and negative terminals, and that it's a heavy enough gauge to reduce power loss over the distance.
I was impressed with the build quality, and the "finished" feel it has. The latches to close up the suitcase are strong, the handle is strong, and it zips nicely into the included, padded nylon case. The cables fit inside the folded panel, so when it's time to load it up for camping, there's just one thing to grab.
There are reviews online that take a more critical look at the efficiency of various panels and controllers. Renology always scores quite well, and I have no complaints. It works great.
In summary, it's a portable, high quality, well thought-out solar charger for 12v systems. The design is exactly what I hoped for, and I'm glad I bought it. If you're looking for a portable solar charger in the 100w capacity, this should be a top contender.

I love this kit as it so easy to use. Simple to set up, clips directly onto battery with crocodile clips.
First time was a test run, good sun, provided caravan battery with 13.7v - 14.2v
Second time was moderate sun direct. Again provided top end of 13.7v and was able to run 12v TV from the battery for a good 2 hours without decreasing the battery power until the sun started to go down.
I haven't tested the panel in lower UV yet however from the performance I've seen so far I don't think this panel will struggle to keep a trickle charge to keep the battery topped up.
I have bought this panel for that purpose, just to keep my battery topped up whilst off grid.
Plug and play kit either everything you need and a nice case. Stands up well. A good weight so it won't blow over if a breeze. Some people have suggested a long cable so your able to move the panel around the van to follow the sun better but so far I haven't struggled with the cable that's come provided.
Sturdy piece of equipment. Happy customer so far.
Wer jedoch ein Solar-Panel für den stationären (zumindest über mehrere Wochen) dauernden Einsatz sucht, der ist hier richtig.
Das Panel kann mittels stabiler in der Höhe stabil veränderbarer Scheren-Füßen in jedem Winkel ausgerichtet werden.
Das Panel hat bei mir im Testbetrieb bei wolkigem Himmel in den Wolkenlücken um ca. 15 Uhr meine VTOMAN 1500 bereits mit 72 Watt geladen. Da kann man nicht meckern.
Für die Powerstation passende Adapter müssen jedoch separat gekauft werden.
Achtung !! .... Für Jackery sind nicht alle Adapter geeignet, da Jackery in Kompatibilität sehr zickig ist. Passende Adapter sind leider nur auf Amazon USA zu finden.
Ich habe mir zwischenzeitlich noch ein weiteres solches Panel gekauft, da ich an meine VTOMAN somit 2 Panele gleichzeitig anschließen kann ... ich komme auf diese Weise selbst bei nicht optimaler Ausleuchtung und geringer Abschattung auf meinem Balkon um 16 Uhr oft auf bis zu 150 Watt (was beinahe der 230V-Ladung über den Hausanschluß entspricht)
SOO muß Solar-Panel !!
.
Nachtrag ...
Ich hatte zwischenzeitlich meine VTOMAN 1500 wieder nachladen dürfen. Bei Sonnenschein um ca. 13 Uhr traute ich meinen Augen nicht ... 120 Watt auf dem Display !! ... zwar nur ein kurzzeitiger Höchstwert, aber es scheint zu gehen ... WOW !!
Meine Jackery 500 bin ich zwischenzeitlich auch mit dem passenden Connector aus USA am laden, nachdem ich jene erst mal komplett entladen musste.
Direkte Sonne um 12 Uhr ... 85 Watt in der Spitze auf dem Display ... das sind mehr als bei einer Netzstrom-Ladung von 80 Watt !!
Ich bin von diesem Panel mehr als begeistert !!
Es geht also doch noch ... super gut und günstig !!
