The Go Power! DuraLite 100 Watt Portable Solar Kit (GP-DURALITE-100) is an ultra-light folding solar panel with a 30A PWM charge controller, kickstand legs, USB ports in the carry handles and a 12 ft lead with battery clamps and sidewall-port adapters. With its accessories, the whole kit weighs about 10 lb.
It's made for tent trailers, camper vans and RVs with little storage space. Go Power estimates it puts about 30Ah a day into a 12V battery on a sunny spring or summer day and about 12Ah a day in fall and winter, which it says is enough to keep a 100Ah battery topped up on a weekend. When you need more, add up to two DuraLite 100W expansion panels for 300W.
DuraLite panels use fabric-laminated monocrystalline cells instead of glass and an aluminum frame. The two 50W halves fold flat, magnetic closures keep the cells covered in transit, and the kit packs into its canvas bag. Folded, it measures 21.1 x 23.8 x 1.8 inches, and the panel itself weighs 8.4 lb.
The GP-PWM-30-DL controller uses temperature-compensated, 4-stage PWM charging. Its battery settings are Sealed (use it for AGM), Gel, Flooded and Lithium, and the Lithium setting is for 12V LiFePO4 batteries with a battery management system. The controller attaches to the panel's leg with a hook-and-loop fastener.
The LCD cycles through PV voltage, PV current, PV power, battery voltage and battery temperature. You can clear the energy count whenever you want to start a new tally.
USB ports built into the handles charge your phone straight from the panel, with no battery needed. An LED on the panel shows solid red when it isn't getting enough sunlight and flashes red if there is a short circuit or a bad connection.
Unfold the two halves, extend the two support legs and face the panel toward the sun. Each leg has a grommet hole at its base, so you can push a tent peg through to steady the panel.
The controller accepts up to three DuraLite 100W panels. Connect up to two expansion panels through the 3-way branch connector. The leads connect red to red and black to black and click when they're seated.
The kit includes battery clamps, quick connectors, ring terminals, an SAE solar plug adapter and an XLR-style solar plug adapter. It plugs into Zamp Solar Ready and Go Power! Solar On The Side sidewall ports or connects straight to your battery.
Weekend trips. Go Power puts LED lights, a vent fan, a water pump and phone and laptop charging at about 25Ah a day, and says this kit covers that daily in summer.
RV storage between trips. Go Power estimates the parasitic draws of a parked RV at about 4Ah a day, covered daily in summer.
Small campers and vans. Go Power designed this kit for tent trailers, camper vans and RVs with minimal storage. It folds to 21.1 x 23.8 inches and packs into its bag.
The DuraLite is lighter, has a 30A controller with a lithium setting and can grow to 300W, with Go Power estimating about 30Ah a day in summer and 12Ah in winter. The GP-PSK-90 is a 90W glass-and-aluminum rigid folder with a 10A controller, rated IP52 and weather resistant, at about 27Ah and 11Ah a day. Its panel warranty is 25 years, against 2 years for the DuraLite panel.
The DuraLite 200W kit starts at 200W, about 60Ah a day in summer and 24Ah in winter, which Go Power says runs a 12V fridge on an average day. Both kits expand to 300W. The 100W kit lets you start small and add panels as your needs grow.
DuraLite panels are not weatherproof. They are made for portable, temporary use. Never leave the kit unattended, plugged in overnight or out in bad weather, fold it away when rain comes, and keep water off the controller.
Use the Sealed setting for AGM and the Lithium setting only for 12V LiFePO4 batteries with a BMS. No other lithium chemistries work with this controller. It doesn't limit current to a lithium battery's maximum charge rate, which often drops in the cold, so check your battery's limits as you add panels. The kit is meant for pre-wired RVs and other unregulated charging, so connect at the battery if your sidewall port runs through a factory controller.
Yes. Select the Lithium setting for a 12V LiFePO4 battery with a BMS. It also charges AGM, gel and flooded batteries.
Only with the controller disconnected. Go Power says a power station charges through its own solar input, bypassing the kit's controller. The DuraLite 100W expansion panel is made to work with power stations.
No. DuraLite panels are not weatherproof. Deploy the kit in the sun and fold it away when rain comes.
No. Unfold the panel, point it at the sun and connect to your battery with the clamps, or to a Zamp Solar Ready or Go Power! Solar On The Side port with the included adapter.
The Go Power! DuraLite 100 Watt Portable Solar Kit gives you 100W of folding solar, a 30A controller with a lithium setting and room to expand to 300W, all in about 10 lb. If you'd like help matching it to your battery or your RV's solar port, the Outbound Power team is happy to help.
