Review on ALEKO SP30W24V - 30W 24V Monocrystalline Solar Panel - Ideal for Gate Opener, Pool, Garden, and Driveway Applications by Brian Kingsford

Revainrating 5 out of 5

GREAT for outdoor camping. Lightweight and perfectly charges 2 golf cart batteries.

We use 2 of these panels on our camper and they work great. With 2 of them together, it charges our batteries up to 100% every day. We usually run the stove at night, Colorado gets a bit chilly at night, especially when there is no cloud cover. I used a kit from Harbor Freight, which was more expensive, a ton heavier, and short-lived because it wobbled on the road. I quickly built a small PVC rack and it works great. I use this charge controller: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00W4R4L2A/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and have 2 6V golf cart batteries. I have from Batteries-Plus (at the university only N or C-470 here in the Denver area, BIG people there). I don't think I will ever go back to normal 12 volt deep cycles.
