Solar On The Side
IS Your RV is PRE-WIRED for a Portable Solar Kit?
Easily Add Solar
Your RV features a Solar on the Side Port. Keep your batteries charged, your lights powered, and your DC appliances running with this green, renewable power source.
The pre-installed port you see on the side of your RV allows you to connect any portable solar kit. Once you connect your solar kit to that port, place your panel in the sun to start charging your battery. It's that easy!
You can also park in the shade for those warm days when having your RV in the sun all day doesn't sound like a great idea. Park in the shade and charge with the sun!
My RV is Pre-Wired, Now What?
What does this port do?
This port is wired directly to your battery. When you plug in a portable solar kit to this port, you charge your RV’s batteries. Your batteries run onboard DC electronics like pumps, fans, and lights.
Does this plug mean my outlets will work?
If your RV is equipped with a power inverter, then yes! However most RV’s these days do not come with a stock power inverter. You may also need a transfer switch to complete the kit.
How does solar help my batteries?
When you’re not plugged in, your batteries are constantly being drained. Whether it’s having the lights on or flushing the toilet, completely draining the batteries repeatedly takes a toll on battery life and can shorten them to just a couple of years. When battery power is topped up frequently by solar, the batteries stay healthy and life is extended twice as long or even longer, saving you money in the long run.
Why Add Solar?
Well with solar you can pretty much go anywhere, without the need to run your generator or lookk for an outlet to plug into.
Renewable Charging
With solar you'll be able to harness the power of the sun to keep your batteries charged.
Save Money
With solar you don't have to pay to plug in at camp sites.
No Generator Needed
There is no generator needed. You and your neighbors at camp sites will appreciate the peace and quiet of solar power, instead of the noisy generator.
