Will Go Power Overlander Expansion Kit Work With 30 Amp Controller

Question

Question:

I currently have a 160 watt Go Power Solar panel. I would like to add this 190 watt panel to it. Im placing them side by side on top of my RV, do I need any additional wiring or connectors to do this job? Also my control panel is the standard Go Power 30 display, is this sufficient enough to run both panels, approx 350 watts? Thanks

I believe you are asking if the Go Power Overlander Expansion Kit - 200 Watt Solar Panel # 34282182 will work with the Go Power PWM Solar Charge Controller # GP72RR, which is a 30 amp controller, and the answer to that is yes it will. It comes with everything needed to add the panel to your system.

Overall, this is compatible with a number of Go Power solar charging systems:

- Go Power Solar Elite Charging System - 380 Watt Solar Panels - 2,000 Watt Inverter Charger # 34282184
- Go Power Solar AE-6 All Electric System with 2 MPPT Solar Controllers - 1,140 Watt Solar Panels # 342-75011
- Go Power Solar Flex Charging System with Digital Solar Controller - 110 Watt Solar Panel # 34272630 & 550 Watt Solar Panels # 34275012
- Go Power Overlander Solar Charging System with Digital Solar Controller - 200 Watt Solar Panel # 34282181
- Go Power Retreat Solar Charging System with Digital Solar Controller - 100 Watt Solar Panel # 34272635
