Just finished install of 400 w mono crystaline panel kit on my 24 ft travel trailer.. Order arrived a week ahead of schedule! Packaging of panels and accessories was very secure. All listed parts were included. For a 4 panel system you will need to order extra MC4 connectors for the long cable runs. I bought a kit that also included the crimper. GET THE CRIMPER and DO THESE CORRECTLY! (The crimp goes on the stripped bare wire not over the plactic wire insulation!) The supplied 10 ga cable was adequate but I needed just a bit more of the 8 gauge wire from controller to battery. ( Routing this system for a travel trailer is more challenging than on 5th wheel or Motor home) You will need to supply tape mastic and sealant for installing panel mounting brackets and roof gland. I also added a 30 AMP circuit breaker in the postive line before the controller. Also a 40 amp circuit breaker on positive line between the controller and battery.
I installed the controller in the front bedroom and ran cable to battery through a hollow compartment below, drilled throught the floor and tied up the cable to the frame ’till it reached the battery. I used plastic surface mount conduit to cover the wire from the ceiling to the controller. Also used a plastic box to hide the 30 amp circuit breaker. The 40 amp breaker is hidden in my hollow compartment below. I also added a 10 amp blade fuse in an inline holder to the positive line of each panel. ( you might see the red wire and fuse holders in my roof wire runs. After I had it all working I put the roof cable in plastic split loom type tubing for neatness and extra protection. Then fastened it all with cable ties to available brackets and points. When I plugged it all in and turned it on, Presto! It Worked!
Making good connections is important. I ended up re-making most of my MC4 conections for my 10 amp fuses and long wire runs after discovering I had done thm incorrectly! Same with connections to controller. The wire is stiff.
Only finished today. We will give it a 6 day trial run next week. We are in cloudy Oregon so I do’t expect big amperage output till the sun comes out.

This product only has 4 stars at this time due to me testing the product.
I am still in the process of testing. I have done a 3 day test.
For a starter unit or rv unit this would work nice for you so far.
The solar panels are nice looking panels. And easy to install
The MPPT is ok for starter and rv. What I do not like so far is there is not enough information giving for you to monitor what is going on. It only shows real time nothing is stored. If you are looking for a simple MPPT controller this would work for you. But do not touch the screen it is very thin and sensitive it can get damaged.
On a full sun so far I am getting around 90% rated power.
The highest wattage power I have gotten is 367
The highest amp has been 27
The highest voltage had been 88
It had kept my battery bank around 12.3 volts. This is with me running 8 12v 100amh batteries with a 4000w inverter. Investor is running around 43% power . At 15 min increments.
Not this is on a full sun days for 3 days.
Not bad for a 400 watt system
Note: This system is not big enough to run a full size home.
Also everything that was ordered come nicely package and all parts was there.
After more testing I will update my findings .
Thank you

I purchased one of the 100W all black solar panels, very nice! It works just fine even on cloudy days produces the same amount of energy as on sunny days. I installed for a courtyard solar light 60W! Used a 20amp MPPT phocos solar charge controller with a 12 volt 120ah gel battery, solar panel maximum charge current: 5.2 amp beyond my imagination! talking about these panels, great value, very nice construction, gives the rated power output. It is important that they have a technical engineer for the design of the solar system are very experienced and gave me a lot of design proposals, great, would buy again for my 24 volt solar pump, watering lawns.

I bought two of these panels because they are aesthetically pleasing and do not draw attention to themselves as solar panels. I am installing them on the front side of my house so I didn’t want something that distracted the eye from the normal look of the house. The satin/semi-gloss finish of the panel merged in well with the black porch so I was well pleased there.
As for the performance, they are spot on. Using them in the dead heat of the summer, they become about 15% less efficient baking in the 98 degree heat as compared to their non-black counterparts of similar panels. This is to be expected as all solar panels suffer from being less efficient the hotter they are.
I’ve not seen any deficiencies in workmanship or quality of the build; they stood up to their first pounding of rain as well.
Usually the summer is the tougher months for a solar panel and so far I have no complaints. I don’t forsee any trouble in the winter, however if anything does arise I’ll update the review.

First off, love the immediate support you get with customer service and technical support. Previously ordered the 60watt Solar Suitcase panels which have been working flawlessly and easy to setup and take down for travelling on the road. I have the need to upgrade to more wattage so I stuck with ACOPOWER products and added a 100watt Mono Solar Panel to the roof along with an aftermarket tilt bracket. Lynn at ACOPOWER sent an adapter to allow both panel assemblies to be hooked up in parallel..
I have no doubt that they should work on my next camping trip. They put out till the sun goes down in the shade.
Highly recommend going with ACOPOWER panels along with the support you will get after the purchase.
