Recommended Roof Mounted Solar Panel Kit for a 2022 Coleman Lantern
Question:
I have a 22’ Coleman Lantern light trailer pre-wired for solar. What do I need to add solar panels to the top of my trailer and what wattage do I need?

Hey John, your Coleman likely has been pre-wired with a Furrion inlet like # FSPINS-BS in which you can use the Go Power Overlander Solar Charging System with Digital Solar Controller # 34282181 which would utilize the pre-wire port and get mounted to the roof. This kit includes the solar panel, the controller, MC4 cables, and installation hardware.

Bryce, I have watched the video and read your reply. Yes, I do have a Furrion inlet located on the front right side about 4' above the ground next to the under trailer storage. There is nothing on top of my trailer for plugging in the panels as shown in the installation video and I do not have access the wires behind the inlet. My question is: with this kit do I run the wires down the front of the trailer to plug into the inlet (would need and inlet plug) which, I assume is wired to the battery, and, if so, what wires go to the controller? Thanks, John
