Frequently Asked Questions
Will this panel work with my 12V battery?
A: Yes. The MEGA 35 is designed for 12V battery systems, such as those in RVs, vans, trailers, and boats. Choose a charge controller that matches your battery type (AGM, flooded, or lithium).
Do I need a charge controller?
A: Yes. A controller sits between the panel and your battery to regulate charging and help prevent overcharging. The panel's open circuit voltage is 21.6V, which is too high to connect directly to a 12V battery.
How do I mount it?
A: The frame has 4 pre-drilled mounting holes for Z brackets, tilt mounts, pole mounts, or ground installation. The 3 ft leads have MC4 connectors attached. If you need more reach, use MC4-compatible extension cables.
How much power will it actually make?
A: The 35W rating is based on ideal sunlight, and the panel produces up to 1.96 amps at its maximum power point. Real-world output varies with sun angle, season, shade, and temperature. It's a great fit for maintaining batteries and powering small loads.
Can I connect more than one panel?
A: Yes, you can wire multiple panels together for more power. Keep the combined voltage and current within your charge controller's limits. The maximum series fuse rating is 10A.
