Questions? Call 1-800-680-4080.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis complete solar inverter kit gives you the main parts of a small off-grid solar system in one box: a solar panel, a 100A solar charge controller, a power inverter that turns 12V battery power into 120V AC, and the cables to connect them. Choose the 500W or 1,000W kit to match what you need to run. It is a practical starting point for a cabin, RV, camper, shed or home backup setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe solar panel charges a 12V battery through the charge controller, and the inverter converts the stored 12V power into standard 120V household power. There is no fuel, no exhaust and no engine noise. The kit photos do not show a battery, so plan on supplying your own 12V battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChoose your kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e500W Solar Inverter Full Kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e for small electronics, lights and low-wattage devices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1000W Solar Inverter Complete Kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e for a larger load, such as several devices at once or small appliances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth kits are the same price, so pick the size that fits the load you want to run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolar panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100A solar charge controller with digital display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower inverter with AC outlets and USB ports (12V DC input, 120V AC output)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery clip cables and cigarette lighter cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtension cable for the solar panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem voltage: 12V DC input to 120V AC output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100A solar charge controller with LCD display and USB port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInverter size options: 500W or 1,000W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes solar panel, charge controller, inverter and connection cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for off-grid use with a 12V battery (battery not shown in the kit photos)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCabins and sheds without grid power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRVs, campers and vans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHome backup for small loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCamping and outdoor energy use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmergency and off-grid preparedness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChoosing the right size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdd up the wattage of everything you plan to run at the same time and keep the total below the inverter's rating.
