The Rich Solar 400 Watt 12V Solar Kit With Battery (model RS-K400B) is a complete charging and storage package for a 12V off-grid system. Two 200W MEGA 200 monocrystalline panels feed a BRAVO 30 30A MPPT charge controller, which charges a 12.8V 100Ah ALPHA 1 LiFePO4 battery. Rich Solar estimates the 400W array produces about 1.4kWh of energy per day under 4 peak sun hours.
The kit also includes two Z bracket sets, a cable entry housing, a 15A inline fuse holder and the solar and battery cables, so the main installation parts come in one kit. Rich Solar builds it for RVs, campers, trailers, boats, cabins and other off-grid applications. An inverter isn't included.
Each MEGA 200 (RS-M200) is rated at 200W, with 18.4V and 10.9A at maximum power, a 21.8V open-circuit voltage and 20.2% module efficiency. The panels use N-Type TOPCon cells under 3.2 mm anti-reflective coated tempered glass, with anodized aluminum frames and IP67 junction boxes. Each one measures 58.7 x 26.8 x 1.2 inches and weighs 24.0 pounds.
The BRAVO 30 (RS-MPPT30PB) is rated for up to 500W of solar on a 12V battery, so it covers the 400W array. It tracks the maximum power point with up to 99.5% efficiency and converts power at up to 98%. The controller auto-detects 12V or 24V and offers eight battery profiles plus a custom setting, including LiFePO4.
Both the BRAVO 30 and the ALPHA 1 have built-in Bluetooth for the RICH SOLAR app. The controller's LCD shows solar input and battery status on the unit, and the battery reports state of charge, voltage, current, temperature and cycle count. An optional remote meter and battery temperature sensor are available for the controller.
The ALPHA 1 (RS-B121S) stores 1,280Wh and is rated for more than 5,000 cycles at 80% depth of discharge. It accepts up to 100A of charge current and delivers up to 100A continuously. A 100W internal heater turns on at 41°F or below while charging current is present and turns off at 50°F, so the battery can take a charge in cold weather.
The ALPHA 1 is rated IP65 and uses a UL94 V-0 flame-retardant housing in a Group 24 size case (10.2 x 6.6 x 8.3 inches, 24.0 pounds). Its BMS protects against over-charge, over-discharge, over-current, short circuit and high or low temperature. The BRAVO 30 adds over-voltage, reverse polarity, short-circuit and over-temperature protection on the charging side.
RVs and travel trailers. Mount two panels on the roof, bring the cables inside through the cable entry housing and keep a 12V house battery charged between campsites.
Vans and campers. Pair 400W of solar with a compact Group 24 size lithium battery and watch both from your phone.
Boats and cabins. Charge a 12V battery away from shore power or the grid, then add an inverter when you need AC outlets.
A PWM controller can't turn surplus panel voltage into extra charging current. The BRAVO 30 uses MPPT tracking rated at up to 99.5%, so more of the series-wired panels' output reaches the battery.
Rich Solar's ALPHA 1 LITE is a 12.8V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery without internal heating or Bluetooth, rated for 4,000+ cycles at 80% depth of discharge. The ALPHA 1 in this kit adds the 100W heater and Bluetooth monitoring and is rated for 5,000+ cycles, which matters if you camp in cold weather or want to check the battery from your phone.
Rich Solar wires the two MEGA 200 panels in series, positive to negative, and places the 15A inline fuse holder on the positive lead of the combined panels. The solar cable set runs from the panels to the BRAVO 30, and the 10 AWG battery cables connect the controller to the ALPHA 1. Rich Solar also shows an optional 30A ANL fuse between the controller and battery. Mount the controller indoors on a vertical surface, protected from the weather and close to the battery.
This is a 12V DC kit with no inverter. Rich Solar shows its NOVA PURE 2K 12V inverter, sold separately, connected to the ALPHA 1 for AC loads. For more storage, the ALPHA 1 supports up to four batteries of the same model in parallel.
Rich Solar estimates about 1.4kWh per day under 4 peak sun hours. Your results depend on location, season, panel tilt and shade. The ALPHA 1 holds 1.28kWh.
No. The kit charges and stores 12V DC power. Add a 12V inverter, such as the NOVA PURE 2K that Rich Solar pairs with this kit, to run household AC devices.
Yes, with a charging source connected. The ALPHA 1 charges between 32°F and 131°F, and its heater warms the cells from 41°F or below up to 50°F. The heater can't run on the battery's own power.
Rich Solar warrants the MEGA 200 panels for 25 years on power output and 10 years on workmanship. The ALPHA 1 battery has a 5-year warranty.
The Rich Solar 400 Watt 12V Solar Kit With Battery brings together two MEGA 200 panels, a BRAVO 30 MPPT controller, a self-heating ALPHA 1 battery and the mounting and wiring parts to connect them. If you have questions about wiring, inverter sizing or adding batteries, the Outbound Power team is happy to help.
