Rich Solar MEGA 200 Watt 12 Volt Monocrystalline Solar Panel

The Rich Solar MEGA 200 Watt 12 Volt Monocrystalline Solar Panel Puts 200W of N-Type TOPCon Power on RVs, Boats and Cabins

The Rich Solar MEGA 200 Watt 12 Volt Monocrystalline Solar Panel is a rigid 12V off-grid panel that delivers 200W from 30 N-Type TOPCon cells with 18 busbars. It measures 58.7 x 26.8 x 1.2 inches, weighs 24 pounds and is certified to UL 61730, IEC 61215 and CSA C22.2.

This listing offers two versions with the same specifications: the MEGA 200 in Silver (RS-M200) and the MEGA 200 ONYX in Black (RS-M200B). Both come with pre-attached 12 AWG leads, 3 ft each, with MC4 connectors and an IP67 junction box, and both carry a 25-year limited power output warranty.

Rich Solar MEGA 200 Watt 12 Volt Monocrystalline Solar Panel Features

18-Busbar N-Type TOPCon Cells

Grade A+ N-Type TOPCon cells in a 30-cell layout deliver a reliable 200W. The 0 to +5W power tolerance means each panel delivers at least its rated output at standard test conditions.

Strong Low-Light and Partial-Shade Performance

The cells and 3.2 mm AR-coated tempered glass capture more sunlight on cloudy days and at dawn and dusk. Built-in bypass diodes keep power steady when part of the panel is shaded.

Built for Extreme Weather

The panel is rated for 2,400 Pa wind loads and 5,400 Pa snow loads, hail impact up to 35 mm at 97 km/h, and temperatures from -40°F to 185°F. The plug-and-play IP67 junction box and IP67 connectors guard against rain and dust.

Tested for Long-Term Performance

Rich Solar runs more than 30 mechanical and electrical tests, including PID resistance and EL diagnostics, plus UV, thermal cycling and humidity freeze testing. The cells are double EL inspected to prevent microcracks.

Easy Setup

Fourteen pre-drilled holes in the lightweight anodized aluminum frame fit Z brackets, tilt mounts, pole mounts and ground mounts.

Works With Most Controllers and Inverters

The panel supports both PWM and MPPT charge controllers and works with on-grid and off-grid inverters, for mobile or fixed installations.

25-Year Output Warranty

Rich Solar backs both versions with a 25-year limited power output warranty and a 10-year workmanship warranty. For MEGA Series panels, output is rated at more than 95% after 5 years, 90% after 10 years and 80% after 25 years.

Real-World Applications

RVs and travel trailers. Put 200W on the roof to keep house batteries charged while you boondock.

Boats. Mount the panel on a hardtop or cabin roof to maintain house batteries.

Cabins and sheds. Charge a 12V battery bank for lights, fans, pumps and electronics.

Vans and truck campers. One panel covers a large share of a van's daily charging.

DIY off-grid systems. Build a 12V array and add panels as loads grow.

How It Compares to Common Alternatives

Versus two 100W panels. Two 100W panels need two sets of brackets and more wiring. One MEGA 200 gives the same power from a single frame and one pair of leads.

Versus the MEGA 200 PRO. The PRO is a 24V panel for systems above 12V. The MEGA 200 is the 12V version, with an 18.4V maximum power voltage that suits PWM or MPPT controllers on 12V batteries.

Silver versus ONYX. The two versions share a Rich Solar spec sheet and the same electrical and physical specs. Choose the finish that suits your roof.

Is This Panel the Right Fit

• Charge controller. Use a PWM or MPPT charge controller sized for the panel's 21.8V open circuit voltage and 11.6A short circuit current.
• Wiring. MC4 connectors support series or parallel wiring. Stay within your controller's voltage and current limits.
• Fusing. The maximum series fuse rating is 15A.
• Roof space. Plan for a 58.7 x 26.8 inch footprint and 24 pounds per panel.

This may be a good fit if

• You want 200W of 12V solar from one rigid panel
• You charge a 12V battery in an RV, boat, van or cabin
• You want UL certification and a 25-year output warranty
• You plan to add more panels over time

Common Questions

Do I Need an Inverter to Charge My Battery?

No. You only need a charge controller to charge a battery. An inverter is needed only if you want to run AC appliances, like a TV or refrigerator, from the battery.

Can the Panel Drain My Battery at Night?

Not when a solar charge controller is installed. The controller prevents reverse current from draining the battery.

Will It Work in Winter?

Yes. Cooler conditions can improve solar panel performance. Keep the panel clear of snow, dirt and shade, since buildup will stop it from generating power.

Does It Require Roof Penetration?

Not always. Panels can often be mounted on the roof using a sealant, or installed on the ground instead.
