RICH SOLAR 200 Watt 24 Volt Moncrystalline Solar Panel High Efficiency Solar Module for RV Trailer Camper Marine Off Grid

Ordered 10 panels and received all on time and in excellent condition despite the best efforts of the shippers. Of the group only 1 had a minor cosmetic flaw in the frame. Checked and got 45V open circuit on each one and connected all in series to verify good connections. Now I just have to get up on the roof and install...😓 Been running with 10 panels for 2Kw set up for 4 months now. The most I get is around 1900W, which is acceptable. They are in a series/parallel set up with a 250/85 controller (48VDC). Open ckt volts should top out at about 235, but will briefly(?) spike above 250V on occasion. Hopefully the controller can handle the issue. After all the work, still satisfied with performance.

I went 48V with my DIY off grid system. I been running 4 X 12V 100W panels in series for 48V 100W. Found these panels and havent looked at a 12V panel since. I connect two of these in series and get 48V 200W and have seen them put out a steady 215W. My system I am running 4 racks of 12V 100W panels. That gives me 67V 400W at the charger. I added 6 of these Rich Solar 24V 200W panels and it kicked my charge rate on a bright sunny day to 1450W/hr. My daily average is running around 6kw now. I have 2 more panels to add to the system and I expect to see over 7K/day solar production. In my opinion these panels are great and I plan to buy more of them to add to my system. Edit 2 years later.... Reconfigured my system to 24V and 6 of these panels will give me @750 watts which is right at the %60 efficiency rating.

Solar Panel worked perfectly as a replacement for the original solar panel that was blown off with the high winds in our area. We can get in and out of our property!

I am adding 6 to my system and things were going well, until I went to clamp them together with my other Rich Solar panels that had the same dimensions. They shaved off .2 inches off these new ones making the specs shown false. They show 1.4" and they are only 1.2"... which makes clamping the new with the old impossible. 4 end brackets had to be put between the old and the new panels. Which created another problem, the end brackets minimum height is 1.4" which means I had to cut 0ff .2" of each end bracket I used for these new Solar panels. This messed up my plans for placement but I was able to make it work. Two more of this setup to go. Need 12 end brackets that I had to order. I am also worried that these thinner models may not withstand the weather that the other thicker ones have gone through.

I purchased this item almost 2 years ago and decided it was time to do a review on it. Most of the time items that I buy seldom meet the advertised specifications. In this case it is quite the opposite. I just took a reading on the voltage output of the solar panel and to my amazement It was putting out 41 volts with an advertise maximum of 37 1/2 volts. I am completely happy with this solar panel and plan on buying more in the future.
