Solar Panel suppliers?

[Deleted member 2636]

I know there are lots of suppliers on FleaBay for solar panels

Has anyone had a really good deal for monocrystalline panels and if so, from which supplier?

Hi,
I had a 120w panel off friendly-green-giant a while back. He supplies various size panels, have a look at his shop. My item was pre-ordered, and arrived on time. He was very helpful and I cannot recommend him enough. Excellent and cheap!

As far as I can see none of the ebay kits are supplied with MPPT controllers , if you buy carefully and do your homework it is cheaper to put together your own kit buying separate parts , for those that don't know , MPPT controllers do a better job of charging and keeping your battery healthy , BEWARE !! , some are sold on ebay as MPPT controllers and they are not true MPPT , this is ware doing your homework comes in , if you look on youtube for ,Fake mppt controllers , it will explain what you have to look out for , fitting a solar system on your motorhome is easy , all the best ,Shawbags.

Also make sure that you check the charge profile of the battery you wish to solar charge. If you dont you may end up boiling a battery or never fully charging a battery. Both will limit the lifespan of your batteries.
