Pros

Renogy's tech support staff seems to work while we are sleeping in the united states. Construction is top-notch. Bought for a camper trailer build…maiden voyage last week on a 10 day trip.

Renogy has a good quality set of panels that although light weight, still feel well constructed. Ordered 2 of these 30 w panels for 2 different electric fences. Another big consideration in panels is the amount of landscape they require for their inst...  Read More

Generally, it's around the high 300w range.
