Description is somewhat confusing. It says one stop solar kit. There's no charge controller though.

Can also buy each item separately on sale right now if you only need one or the other: 200W panel about 170 with coupon and battery about 442 with a code.

Good price for the panel, but I've seen similar batteries on Amazon for a bit cheaper (Weize $330 after coupon). Reviews seem good too but can't confirm the quality between the 2 myself.

Very good deal, with it coming with 200 watts of solar panels. Too bad they couldn't have paired it with portable solar panels to better go along with a portable battery pack. But all in all, still a good deal for a reputable brand.

Can the AC outlet be used at the same time while the battery is being charged by the solar panel?

12v battery is way overpriced as someone above mentioned so this combo is not slick. Panels individually seem to be well priced though.

Just curious, are these different from what a company would use on a home for full-time solar installation? Like could you buy like 4 of the 1200 watt kits and get someone to install, or they are the wrong type of panels, or most companies would scoff at installing panels you bought yourself and would only use their products?

Was thinking the same thing... Any recommendations for a controller for RV usage?

Can anyone recommend wattage/Ah rating range for a small travel trailer? I know it's somewhat of a loaded question, and going to be completely condition based, but Im needing to replace my LA battery and want to use this as an excuse to start jumping into solar components. Just don't want to go under the capacity of my current DSLA battery (standard automotive size, don't have the specs in front of me). I know I will need to change my inverter.

Review of the battery. At face value I would say that it's a good deal given that it's a self heating battery. Still a bit ahead of my timeline for my project but not I have the SD dilema hah.

There's practically zero advise that can be offered without knowing what kind of loads you have and what runtimes you expect. Lights and an exhaust fan is an entirely different story than an AC unit and microwave.

Yea, that's completely fair and what I figured. I'm completely new to both RVing and Solar, so just trying to wrap my head around the concept of going with a Li vs LA battery.

Lead Acid generally gets discharged to only 50% for the sake of extending useful life while LiFe can discharge down to 20%. So you'll get about 50% more energy per Watt Hour with LiFe. That's about the only thing useful to say relative to your current setup. Consider that your current setup if aged also likely has reduced capacity.

Renogy has a fairly good rep in the RV world. Something like this [amazon.com] should work, MPPT for efficiency, 30A would allow you to add another panel in the future.

If you also use shore power and generator charging you have to look at your converter as well.

100Ah (1280Wh) is a good starting point to run the basics, like a small compressor fridge, lights, water pump, fan etc. Assuming that the solar panel will work to replenish during the day.

You don't need to change the inverter, unless you want to replace it with a bigger one. Usually these batteries output 100A max, so with one you can run a 1250W inverter, etc. Not sure what you have currently.
