ACOPOWER HY010-12M 10 Watt 10W Mono Solar Panel for 12V Battery Charging RV Boat, Off Grid

I had a 175 watt Renogy (original EOL175) and needed a second to wire in series on a camper. This one has the EXACT same volt/amps/max volt specs including EXACT dimensions. 4 mid mounting holes are identical. Renogy has 4 more on the ends so the OCD of not mounting exactly the same remains as does cosmetically the array is different (not as pure black face...only squirrels will know?) but mathematically they work identically in series, which is the challenge of modifying an install later.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CMCZV9J on the left, this on the right:Please don't judge me, 15 year old camper still in Winter storage and Dicor LAP came later ... but matching size & volts say risk it for parallel or series upgrades to match ;-)Only other option was entirely new pair and all new holes on the roof of an RV. NEVER a good plan B!

Very good

I had an old 50W solar panel from the mid-80's on top of the RV I just bought and it had degraded to the point of just putting out less than 5W in full sunlight. I replaced it with this panel, ran new wires through a new controller, and used 3M 4950 VHB tape with Renogy mounting brackets to mount in a better place on the roof. This panel already has pre-drilled mounting holes, so I just had to install the brackets and stick it to the roof. (NOTE - You also have to install the connector of your choice on - I used the MC4 connectors that come with the panel). In full sunlight this 30W panel puts out a consistent 25W, and will keep my house battery fully charged. The only reason for 4 stars is the panel drops to 3W in the tiniest bit of shade... (IE - shade one corner of the panel).

The solar panel's performance metrics consistently match the manufacturer's specifications, delivering reliable power output even under varying weather conditions. Unlike several other models I've tested that fell short of their advertised capabilities, this unit efficiently converts sunlight to electricity, making it a trustworthy choice for residential and RV solar installations. The real-world energy generation aligns perfectly with the rated capacity, demonstrating exceptional value for the investment.

Fits perfectly horizontal on the roof of my van! No overhang. The 200w competitor overhangs and looks funny. This is the one if you’re looking for a sprinter!!

this company was so helpfull and willing , they even sent me two cables on them to help me on them !!! I had soaked a bunch of money with jackery and they would not even help , never answered the phone they provided and I had to email them with no avail... definately reccomend ACOPOWER

I bought this 5 watt solar charger as it is advertised as a trickle charger with blocking diode. It is not. It is simply a solar panel that puts out up to 5 watts of 12+ volts DC. There is no blocking diode and there is nothing on the end of the wire to clip it to a battery’s terminals. So this can’t be used as a trickle charger without additionally buying a charging controller or at least buying a diode and some battery clamps and soldering these in yourself. This is like selling a bike with no wheels-sure it is essentially a bike, but you have to buy the wheels separately and install them on the frame to actually use it as a bike. That’s why anything sold as a bike comes with the wheels. This solar panel doesn’t come with what it needs to be used as a trickle charger.

After having 4 shipments of a 200w panel from another company each broken by Fedex ground it was a pure pleasure to get this one in good condition shipped by USPS. The only problem was at first they would not deliver it because of being "too large for mailbox" but after some fumbles and a long weekend, plus driving 25 miles to the post office only to find out they ignored my coming to pick it up message, it was delivered today intact.Testing in sun the voltage (21.1vDC) and amperage (9.3a) is at spec and I see only a minor dent on the aluminum frame. All in all I am very pleased.Amazon however might look into the issue of if these panels are too large for the USPS to routinely deliver. Us rural folks are not close enough to Post Offices for easy pickup.
