Yes, you can live off-grid with Briefcase solar panels, however, we recommend using the 200w Rigid solar panel for permanent roof installations for full time off grid living. By installing solar panels on your RV roof and combining that with our Titan power station, you can generate electricity to charge your batteries, and power appliances, and enjoy the comforts of home even in remote locations.
The number of solar panels needed to power an RV depends on various factors such as energy consumption, available roof space, and desired power capacity. Generally, at least 2 solar panels for RVs, ranging from 100 to 400 watts each, are needed for a basic essentials. However, for larger power needs or increased energy independence, you will need more more solar panels for your RV.Â
Our Briefcase solar panels are best used in portable situations and are very easy to use. Simply unpack the solar panel from its bag, unfold the panel, adjust the tilt legs and set on the ground in a sunny location. If you have more than one Briefcase solar panel, simply connect each set together in series or parallel. Finally, connect the included MC4 to Anderson wire connectors to the last set of Briefcase solar panels and then connect that wire to your Titan Power Station.Â
Our Briefcase solar panels require very little maintenance, however, there may be times when they may need an extra cleaning. First, rinse your solar panels with water. Most of the time, hosing them off is sufficient to clean them. If they need a bit more cleaning, simply use mild soap and water with a soft cloth or brush and wipe the solar panel surface to remove any dirt or grime that may be stuck on. Then, simply rinse off with a hose.Â
