2x 500W 12V Mono Shingled Fixed Solar Panel Camping RV

1000W Solar Panel Bundle – 2 × 500W 12V Fixed Shingled Mono Panels

Build a powerful off-grid charging setup with this 1000W solar panel bundle, featuring two 500W 12V fixed shingled monocrystalline solar panels. Designed for serious caravan, RV, 4WD, camping, shed, tiny home and off-grid solar systems across Australia, this bundle gives you strong panel capacity for faster battery charging and more reliable daily solar production.

With a total peak output of 1000W / 1kW, this two-panel solar bundle is ideal for customers wanting more charging power than a single panel while keeping the system simpler and easier to mount than a larger multi-panel array.

Why Choose This 1000W Fixed Solar Panel Bundle?

This bundle uses shingled monocrystalline solar cell technology, which helps maximise active cell area and reduce power loss compared with many traditional panel layouts. The fixed framed design makes it a strong choice for permanent rooftop, ground-mount, caravan, RV, shed and off-grid installations.

System Compatibility

This 1000W solar panel bundle can be wired in series, parallel or series-parallel depending on your solar charge controller, inverter and battery bank voltage. For many caravan and off-grid systems, a correctly sized MPPT solar charge controller is recommended to maximise charging efficiency and safely manage the solar input.

Before installation, always check your controller or hybrid inverter’s maximum PV input voltage, current rating and cold-weather Voc allowance. Correct solar cable sizing, fusing, isolators and safe installation are essential for reliable long-term performance.

What’s Included

• 2 × 500W 12V fixed shingled mono solar panels
• Pre-terminated solar leads
• Integrated mounting points in each panel frame

Mounting brackets, rails, solar cable, fuses, isolators, solar controller, batteries and inverter components are not included unless purchased separately.

Real-World Solar Output Note

Solar panel output varies depending on sunlight strength, temperature, panel angle, shading, wiring setup and controller efficiency. The 500W rating is measured under standard test conditions. In real Australian use, daily output will depend on installation quality, weather and system design.

FAQs

Is this a 1000W solar panel kit?

This is a two-panel solar bundle with a total capacity of 1000W. It is not a complete kit by itself. You may still need mounting hardware, solar cable, fuses, isolators, an MPPT controller and batteries.

Can this charge lithium batteries?

Yes. These panels can charge lithium LiFePO4 batteries when used with a compatible solar charge controller or hybrid inverter set to the correct lithium charging profile.

Should I wire the two panels in series or parallel?

That depends on your controller input limits and battery system voltage. Series wiring increases voltage, while parallel wiring increases current. Always check the controller’s maximum PV voltage and current limits before connecting the panels.
