Campervan Solar Panels, Solar Kits & Off-Grid Power Systems

The kit includes an ETFE-coated semi-flexible solar panel, a 20A MPPT charge controller, cables, connectors, a fuse and sealant. Choose the 200W or 300W option on the product page.

A leisure battery is not included. The kit is designed to connect to your existing leisure battery.

Start with your daily electricity use and available roof space. Multiply each appliance’s power in watts by its hours of use, then add the results to estimate your daily consumption in watt-hours.

A 300W panel has 50% more rated power than a 200W panel, giving you more potential charging capacity in comparable conditions. Actual charging depends on sunlight, shading, temperature and installation. Share your appliance list, battery details and roof measurements with us for help choosing.

The kit is designed with campervan pop-top roofs in mind, including VW Transporter T5, T6 and T6.1 models.

Before ordering, send us your vehicle year, roof manufacturer, usable roof measurements and details of any roof rack, vents or other fittings. Check the dimensions of your chosen wattage option and your roof manufacturer’s weight and mounting requirements.

The panel uses a slim, bonded mounting design rather than drilled mounting brackets.

Follow the fitting instructions for surface preparation, adhesive application and cable routing. A bonded panel does not automatically mean the whole installation is drill-free: the cable route into your van must also be planned and sealed correctly.

The MPPT controller manages the power coming from the solar panel and regulates charging to the leisure battery. MPPT stands for Maximum Power Point Tracking.

The controller must be configured for your battery type and used within its electrical limits. Do not connect the panel directly to a leisure battery or add extra panels without checking the controller’s specifications.

Battery compatibility depends on the supplied controller’s supported charging profiles and your battery manufacturer’s requirements. Before ordering, send us your battery make, model, chemistry, capacity and system voltage so we can confirm suitability.

If you already have mains or alternator charging, those chargers also need settings appropriate for the same battery.

Solar replenishes the leisure battery that supplies your appliances. Whether it can replace the energy used by your fridge, lighting and chargers depends on their daily consumption and the solar energy available.

Check each appliance’s specifications rather than relying on its name alone. A 230V appliance also requires a suitable inverter, and high-power appliances such as kettles or heaters can use substantial battery capacity.

Solar panels can generate electricity in daylight when it is cloudy, but output falls as available sunlight decreases. Short winter days, shade from roof equipment and dirt on the panel can reduce charging further.

For year-round trips, plan another charging method, such as a compatible alternator charger or campsite hookup charger. Do not assume the panel will produce its rated wattage throughout the day.

DIY installation is possible if you are confident with roof bonding, weatherproof cable routing and campervan electrical work. Free telephone fitting support is available from our team.

Before starting, confirm battery compatibility, controller settings, fuse placement and the installation instructions. If you are unsure about the electrical connections or roof construction, use a qualified campervan installer or auto electrician.
