The SunGold Power 200 Watt Monocrystalline Solar Panel Is a Compact 24V Panel Sized for RVs, Cabins, and Small Battery Systems
The SunGold Power 200 Watt Monocrystalline Solar Panel (model SG200WM) is a compact rigid panel that measures 55.1 x 27.6 x 1.2 inches and weighs 23.32 lbs. It is a 24V panel with a 36.16V maximum power voltage and a 20.41% module efficiency.
It is a good match for small off-grid setups such as a cabin, camper, RV or boat, where space is limited and a battery bank stores the energy. We offer it in packs of 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 identical panels, so you can start small and add panels as your needs grow.
SunGold Power 200 Watt Monocrystalline Solar Panel Features
200 Watts From 64 Monocrystalline Cells
The panel uses 64 monocrystalline cells (166mm) in a 4 x 16 layout. At standard test conditions it is rated at 200W, 36.16V and 5.53A, with a ±3% production tolerance.
A 24V Panel That Pairs Easily
This is a 24V panel. Two panels wired in series make a 48V string, and SunGold notes that a 20A charge controller is enough for that pair. That keeps a starter system simple.
Small Enough for Tight Roofs
At 55.1 x 27.6 inches and 23.32 lbs, the panel fits roofs and decks where a full-size residential module won't. SunGold lists caravans, RVs, golf carts, boats and tents among its uses.
Weatherproof Build With Tempered Glass
The front is 3.2mm tempered glass and the frame is anodized aluminum alloy. SunGold describes a scratch-resistant twin wall frame that resists corrosion during extended outdoor use. An IP65-rated junction box protects the wiring, and the waterproof design lets the panel be used in all weather conditions.
Good Performance in Low Light
The high-efficiency cells are rated for strong performance in low-light conditions. That helps keep a battery topped up on cloudy days and early or late in the day.
Pre-Drilled Frame and Long Output Leads
Pre-drilled holes make mounting easier. Each output lead is 1200mm (47.24 inches) of 4mm² cable, including an MC4 connector, which leaves room to reach a neighboring panel or a combiner.
1000V System Rating
The panel is rated for a 1000V maximum system voltage, a 10A maximum series fuse and 2400Pa of wind resistance. Its operating range is -40°C to 85°C.
Real-World Applications
Camper and RV roofs. Charge a house battery from a panel sized for limited roof space.
Off-grid cabins. Supply a cabin with quiet, clean solar energy and expand from 2 to 10 panels over time.
Small device power. Pair the panel with a battery to run small devices steadily, with the battery smoothing out the ups and downs of sunlight.
Boats. SunGold lists boats and yachts among suitable uses for this compact panel.
How It Compares to Common Alternatives
Versus full-size residential panels. Larger panels produce more power per module, but they need more space and heavier mounting. The 200W panel fits small roofs and weighs 23.32 lbs.
Versus portable folding panels. A folding panel is easy to pack away, while this rigid glass and aluminum panel is built for permanent mounting and all-weather use.
Versus 12V panels. A 24V panel runs at a higher voltage, so it carries less current for the same power. Two in series reach 48V.
Is This Compact Solar Panel the Right Fit
-
Charge controller. You need a solar charge controller. For two panels in series, SunGold says a 20A controller is enough.
-
Full system. To run several panels, you also need a battery, an inverter, solar panel cable, solar panel connectors and tray cable.
-
System voltage. Rated for a 1000V maximum system voltage and a 43.39V open circuit voltage per panel.
-
Pack sizes. Sold in packs of 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 panels.
This may be a good fit if
- You have limited space on an RV, camper or cabin roof
- You want a 24V panel for a small battery system
- You plan to start with two panels and add more
- You want a rigid glass and aluminum panel
Common Questions
Is the 200W Panel 12V or 24V?
It is a 24V panel. Its maximum power voltage is 36.16V and its open circuit voltage is 43.39V.
Can I Wire Two Panels in Series for 48V?
Yes. Two panels in series make 48V. SunGold says a 20A charge controller is enough for that pair, so a 60A controller would be oversized.
How Much Energy Does It Produce per Day?
About 800 to 1200Wh per day, depending on how many peak sun hours it gets. With around 5 peak sun hours, you can expect about 1000Wh.
What Else Do I Need to Run Five Panels?
You need a solar charge controller, a battery, an inverter, solar panel cable, solar panel connectors and tray cable.
How Big Is the 200W Panel?
Each panel measures 55.1 x 27.6 x 1.2 inches (1400 x 700 x 30mm) and weighs 23.32 lbs.
