I'm Not Exactly Sure About This One
#1
I'm not sure about this....is it a good deal?

I'm on Weatherbug checking on the forecast for the weekend. A ad popped up so I hit the magic button.

Part of the description  "female for extended outdoor use".  Well it's always nice to know what you're paying for.

I don''t reckon $113 is too much?   I mean it's "compact' and "highly efficient"?

TJB I used a Renogy 200w starter kit when I built my van. I had no previous experience with solar. Between the kit and what I read online it was relatively easy for me to install. The only thing I would have done differently was bought a pair of golf cart batteries instead of the agm battery.

I don't remember what I paid but the Wanderer was optional at that time.

Like TX said check around for better pricing individually.
Home Despots sells Renogy too.

Don't worry about installation , plenty of hand holders here.
stay tuned 
  Cool

Call Renogy, I imagine they can beat this price. Don't tell them the price to match, just ask the salesman what the price would be for same product.

800-330-8678

Also keep in mind that just because alot of people love Renogy, doesn't mean they're the best. My mc4 connectors on my panels(Renogy) have cracked. Still works and I'm not shit talking them, just FYI.

what happens is,renogy will sell you a panel for $130 or so,home depot buys a pallet or two of panels from renogy at bulk prices and then can sell them for $100

so around $100 per panel

30amp controller https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BCTLIHC?aaxitk=1zgia8mOjjV9iRaDzJn5zQ&pd_rd_i=B00BCTLIHC&pf_rd_p=3ff6092e-8451-438b-8278-7e94064b4d42&hsa_cr_id=8131670570701&sb-ci-n=productDescription&sb-ci-v=Renogy%20Wanderer%20--%2030A%20Advanced%20PWM%20Negative-Ground%20Solar%20Charge%20Controller $30

and a starter kit will have $50 in wiring

 200w kit should be around $280-300 so thats in the ballpark
