Page 3, first paragraph: " 1 PRODUCT FUNCTION The BCDC1225 is a multi stage, 12V, 25A, DC-DC battery charger that operates from an input of either 12V or 24V nominal or a 12V nominal solar panel input. The input voltage of the BCDC1225 can be above, below or equal to the output voltage...

At the link you provided https://www.redarc.com.au/images/uploads/images/Redarc_BCDC1225_25A_in-vehicle_battery_charger_130408.pdf It states "Allows for flexible installation in 12 or 24 volt vehicles" there referring to vehicle battery system voltage. Page 2 Specifications notes: Solar input...

I am using a Redarc 25A in-vehicle 3-stage 12v battery charger (bcdc1225) to charge the aux batteries from the starting battery/alternator (Redarc.com.au). The in-vehicle charger also features a MPPT solar regulator, allowing delivery of max amount of solar power from the solar panels to the...

I thought that might be the case. I did find one Canadian 200w 18v solar panel, but do not have any idea how to buy one. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0408/8521/files/195w_69e64115-daf6-4a55-bdff-fb50c5c5dd2c.pdf Found several from China, but hesitate to buy direct from China...

I was at Panamint Springs Resort Wednesday night thru Saturdaay. The temps were in the 60's daylight and 50's dark. I understand that there was a cold front that moved thru there Tuesday with high winds and extreme cold. I was lucky enough to miss that. Were the warm springs crowded for...

We're the three nights you spent in Saline valley Friday, Saturday and Sunday night? Great pics.

Top One Solar - Solar Panel 200 Watt 12V Solar Panel Monocrystalline I have only been able to find 1 single solar panel rated at 200W, optimum power voltage Vmp 18 volts ( used for a 12v battery charging system). It's from a company in Australia, low energy developments com.au...

Do you have any quantative data comparing different solar panel performance in marginal conditions. I suppose comparing the output wattage of two panels mounted side by side (identical solar conditions) charging identical batteries in the same SOC using the same solar controler would be of great...

No, I have not decided on a panel yet. Did complete the air-spring install on my FWC to help lift the roof with two new panels when I get them.

More about the 200W panel please. $400 cdn, Canadian?

So that would be about $339 + $50 about $389 per panel delivered to CA for the Carmanah CTI-160 panel (made in Canada).

Didn't intend to cause you any grief. Just could not understand the difference in price comparing the Grape solar 160 watt panel to the Carmanah panel. Most likely the Grape solar is made in China. I do see that the Carmanah is made in Canada.

Looked for Carmanah Solar Panels and found this one : CARMANAH CTI-160 160W 12V Specifications Cell type Rated power (Pm) Maximum power voltage (Vmp) Maximum power current (Imp) Open circuit voltage (Voc) Short circuit current (Isc) Voltage coefficient Power coefficient Current coefficient...

The Go Power solar panel kit looks good for $489. But I already have a solar controller. Looked at other Amazon go power stuff and found Go Power! GP-RV-160E 160W Solar Expansion Kit, it's one solar panel and two connectors, for $ 620, includes connectors and mounting hardware. The grape solar...

OK, so the two solar panels weigh in at about 25# each, for a total of 50# added to the roof. Will be removing the old 80W panel and an aluminum roof rack from the back of the camper roof. But I figure the weight on the roof will still be greater when I'm done. So first I need to do the 'roof...

Really looking at the grape solar 160W MONO GS-S-160-FAB8 HIGH EFFICIENCY MONO-CRYSTALLINE SILICON PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE Mechanical Specifications Characteristic Details Cell Size 156mm x 156mm (6.14” x 6.14”) Module Dimension (L x W x T) 1474mm x 660mm x 40mm (58.0” x...

Yes, more watts.... The 150watt 39x39.5 panels won't quit fit between the ceiling vents on the FWC. But if I remove the rear roof rack which I have only used one time, I will have two spaces on the roof that will allow the more traditional sized 150-160 watt panels (2 of them). I think that 300...

Great idea for solar panels on top of a jeep TJ. But I will add them to the top of a FWC camper on a Ford F-250 pickup. I think I might just go with the heavier ones, more watts & might last longer for me.

Found this 150W panel, Renogy 150W Monocrystalline, odd size 39.5" x 39". I might have room for two of these. Edit....nope gust an inch too wide to fit on the space available. But if I remove the roof rack, which I have only used one time, I can have two normally sized 150-160 watt panels.

Checked out AMSolar and found ACO150 solar panel (polycrystalline) Pmax = 150 watts @ maximum power Vmpp = 18.25 volts @ maximum power point Impp = 8.49 amps @ maximum power point Voc = 22.61 volts @ open circuit Isc = 9.08 amps @ short circuit Length = 58.27" (1480mm) Width = 26.38"...
