MEGA 200 Portable Briefcase Charging Kit - 200 Watt 12 Volt Portable Solar Panel Kit

Twice the panel area of the 100-watt briefcase, with a 20A waterproof charge controller already wired in. At 200 watts and roughly 10.9 amps in full sun, this is enough to actually recover a 100Ah house battery in a day rather than just slow its decline. It folds to 33.1 x 26.4 in and weighs 26 lb, so it is a two-hand carry, not a backpack item.

Why this kit

• 200 watts from monocrystalline cells rated up to 23.2% efficiency, in a hinged two-panel briefcase.
• The 20A weatherproof controller is sized with headroom over the panel's 11.6A short-circuit current, and it can live outdoors next to the panel.
• 18.4V at maximum power and 10.9A into a 12V battery. That current is what makes the difference against the 100W kit, which manages about half.
• Tempered glass, aluminum frame and corner protectors, rated IP67 against weather.
• Kickstands let you tilt toward the sun instead of laying flat, which is worth a substantial share of daily output in winter.
• If your power station already regulates its own solar input, the panel-only MEGA 200 Portable Briefcase costs less and does the same job.

Setup

• Unfold, extend both kickstands, aim at the sun and re-aim through the day.
• Five-foot 12 AWG leads with MC4 connectors go from panel to controller; the controller output clamps or bolts to the battery.
• Works with flooded, AGM and lithium 12V batteries. Confirm the controller profile suits your lithium BMS before first charge.
• Folded footprint is 33.1 x 26.4 x 2.4 in, which needs real cargo space in a van or truck bed.

Warranty

• 25 years on rated power output.
• 10 years on materials and workmanship.
