Ordered 10 panels and received all on time and in excellent condition despite the best efforts of the shippers. Of the group only 1 had a minor cosmetic flaw in the frame. Checked and got 45V open circuit on each one and connected all in series to verify good connections. Now I just have to get up on the roof and install…😓 Been running with 10 panels for 2Kw set up for 4 months now. The most I get is around 1900W, which is acceptable. They are in a series/parallel set up with a 250/85 controller (48VDC). Open ckt volts should top out at about 235, but will briefly(?) spike above 250V on occasion. Hopefully the controller can handle the issue. After all the work, still satisfied with performance.

Updated Review after purchasing second 200W 24 volt panel: I was so happy with my first panel that I ordered a second. I connected the in series to charge my Blue Etti even faster. The Blue Etti will work with up to 60v input so it should have worked fine, however, the second panel (or maybe both) are producing way over 24 volts. The name plate for the original panel showed maximum power voltage of 24 volts, the nameplate for the second panel shows the maximum power voltage of 37.6 so make sure you understand the excessive voltage before ordering. I tried to return and get a replacement panel but the company cancelled my return and hasn’t responded with any updates.
Original Review for first 200W 24v panel Ive been using the 200W mono panel to daily charge my Blue Etti for the last week and it has been working great. It consistently produces 165 to 170 watts (I’ve monitored several days at around 10 a.m. and 2 pm) during the peak solar hours which is good for a 200 watt panel. I chose the Rich solar panel after watching YouTube reviews in which Rich panels typically among the best performers. I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived to see that Rich had improved the packaging, which had been mentioned as being disappointing in the YouTube reviews. My panel arrived with both cardboard and foam around almost the entire exterior. It also appears that Rich has improved upon the quality of the construction compared to what was shown in the YouTube videos. Im completely happy with it and will definitely buy Rich panels gain due to the good price and excellent performance.

Looking to put (6 to 8 panels) 1200 to 1600 watts on the roof of a fifth wheel. Order the 1st 3 panels from Amazon Warehouse. They arrived with slightly bent frames, but the glass was intact, and they tested within specifications. Ordered a 4th panel a few weeks ago, which never was received, and is still showing “in transit”. Amazon has refunded for this shipment. Ordered 3 more panels last week, again through warehouse deals. 1st panel was in good shape, and tested within specifications. The other 2 boxes had a good size bend. Both of them had shattered glass, and heavily damaged frames. 1 box had broken glass written on it. So I’m not sure if they were shipped that way, or were damaged in shipping. I have sent them back, and am still waiting for a credit. I am planning to install them once I have 6 panels. I will add 2 more afterwards if I need the extra output. I’m very happy with the panels, just wish I wasn’t having a problem getting 6 of them. I will update the review after my next order. I have rx credit for the two shattered panels 10/10/22 Rx 1 panel from Amazon warehouse, arrived in great condition, and tested within specifications. Rich Solar has upgraded their packaging…. Much better protection. Just 1 more needed.

I installed two 24 V 200W Mega 200 panels to the top of my off-road trailer. The panels arrived quickly after I ordered them without damage. The panels lie flat when moving, tilt towards the sun and are removable using a mounting system I designed. I like the fact that Rich Solar was interested in how the panels were doing and if I needed anything.

This panel arrived with a large scratch on the glass, and scratches and dirt on the aluminum frame. It also is not up to specification with regard to it’s power output. It is rated as 200 watts +- 5%, which means it should output between 190 and 210 watts under standard conditions. I tested its output using 2 different methods. The first was relative to a 10 kW, 40 panel array, and the second used a solar pyranometer. In the first test, the panel was oriented identically to the 10 kW array, and the measurements were made simultaneously under identical conditions. The measured output was 181 Watts. Using the solar pyranometer to measure incident flux, compensating for the panel temperature, correcting for incidence angle and specular reflection losses, the measured output was 176 Watts. The average of the two separate approaches was 179 Watts, or about 11% less than the advertised output. Based on the condition of the panel when it was received, and its low power output relative to specifications, I have opted to return the panel.

I was mainly getting this panel because of the size not efficacy , I mounted it on the roof of my M35 truck to charge the 24v batteries. Now it does say its a 200w panel I haven’t gotten that typically 175-180w which is ok.

These panels are cranking out very close to the maximum specified wattage – in January. They also are generating over 100 watts of power IN THE RAIN. The extra busbars really make a difference on cloudy days. Packaging and shipping was excellent. I could not be happier with these things.

Ordered four panels through Amazon. The panels arrived with some damage to the shipping boxes. Panels where well protected by the shipping boxes. Opened all 4 of the boxes and found only 1 panel had a small scrap (abt two inches long) on one of the metal sides, the other three had no damage. I am very impressed with the way the panels were protected by the shipping boxes and packaging.
