This motorhome solar set with AGM battery - SMALL, with 180W module power and 70Ah battery capacity, is the perfect small solar set with battery for a self-sufficient power supply in your motorhome, caravan or camper. Installation takes less than four hours - experienced hands are much quicker. A complete installation diagram is included and enables even complete beginners to master the installation quickly and successfully.

The expected daily output of the solar module (April to October) is on average 600Wh/day (max. 1200 Wh on very sunny days in Switzerland), so the 840 Wh battery can be fully charged on a single sunny day.
With 70Ah, the VDC70 delivers a total of approx. 840 Wh. This is enough battery capacity to bridge two cloudy days and, for example, charge an I Phone 40 times, charge a laptop 4-6 times or keep 8 LED spotlights lit for 80 hours

Motorhome solar set with AGM battery - SMALL: simple, proven, high quality

The set contains all the components you need to enjoy a self-sufficient and mobile power supply. The special thing about our solar systems for motorhomes: We use an extra-solid mounting system that can simply be stuck on. The module can be unscrewed from the spoiler at any time if you need to access the area under the solar module. This set is designed so that it can be extended by another module in the same power class without having to change the charge controller. This means you can easily upgrade if necessary.

We have also paid particular attention to quality at the critical point, the cable feed-through into the interior of the motorhome. The supplied cable gland is made from the same sturdy material as the roof spoiler for the solar modules and is simply glued on. The connection is absolutely watertight and particularly durable.

All components of the set are listed and linked above.

You can click on the yellow text to open the products individually and call up more detailed information about them.
If you want to change individual components of the set (for example, because the solar modules we have suggested do not fit on your roof and you would prefer different ones), you can simply open all the products listed individually, add them to your shopping cart and then make the adjustments in your shopping cart.

You can also do this if you want to replace individual products that are currently out of stock with items that are in stock. (As soon as only one product of the set is out of stock, the whole set will be displayed as "back soon", although most of the products are probably in stock)

The components of the set:

VOLTIC VDC70 Deep Cycle AGM 70Ah battery

AGM batteries:
- are particularly inexpensive to purchase
- can easily withstand high continuous discharge currents
- can also be charged at sub-zero temperatures

With 70Ah, the VDC70 delivers a total of approx. 840 Wh. However, in order to be able to enjoy a particularly large number of battery cycles, it should ideally only be discharged to approx. 50%, which means 420 Wh "usable capacity".
This is enough battery capacity to bridge two cloudy days and, for example, charge an iPhone 40 times, charge a laptop 4-6 times or keep 8 LED spotlights lit for 80 hours.

If 35Ah or 420 Wh usable battery capacity is not enough for you, you can either choose one of our larger sets with battery, or put the set together manually in your shopping cart with a VDC120, or connect two VDC70 in parallel.

If you want to play it safe, you can also install a BatteryProtect to protect your battery from deep discharge.

A charge level indicator can also be useful to adjust your consumption to the charge level of the battery.

If you also want to charge your battery with shore power, you could simply buy an additional charger.

VOLTIMA SCD25 MPPT solar charge controller Dual 12V 350Wp 50V 25A

With MPPT technology, the controller automatically determines the maximum power output (MPP) of the solar modules several times per second. It then transforms the excess voltage of the solar module into a higher charging current for the battery (realized by high-frequency switching controller technology with high efficiency). This additional charging current ensures shorter charging times and the best possible power utilization of the solar system. A Bluetooth dongle for monitoring the charging data via smartphone app or a permanently installable monitor can be purchased separately if required.

• Two battery charging outputs: For the main supply on-board battery as well as backup charging and charge retention of the starter battery
• Switchable charging characteristics for optimum charging of lead gel/dryfit, AGM/fleece or acid/wet batteries as well as LiFePO4 batteries
• Standard protection against overload, overcharging, overheating, reverse polarity and reverse battery discharge
• and much more

VOLTIMA Genio BSM180-36 solar module 180 watt monocrystalline

Genio modules are particularly suitable for installation on the roofs of motorhomes or camper vans. The angle of incidence of the sun is often lateral in camper reality and so the light from the roof can be ideally reflected onto the lower side of the panel. In this way, a good deal of extra power can be extracted from a small space.
Alternatively, you can also mount a normal module such as the GSM180-36 or simply attach a flex panel such as the GSM180F-36 with mounting tape.

• The expected daily output (April to October) is 700Wh/day on average (max. 1200 Wh on sunny days in Switzerland)
• Dimensions of the module: 1230 x 705 x 30 mm

VOLTIMA 5-piece short complete mounting set for solar installation (white)

We use an extra solid mounting system that can simply be glued on. The module can be unscrewed from the spoiler at any time if you need to access the area under the solar module. Spoiler profiles are the first choice, especially for caravans and motorhomes, when it comes to a clean and long-term attachment of the solar modules. If the modules are mounted in the direction of travel, wind noise is no longer an issue (this also applies to alcove vehicles). The complete mounting set also includes a cable bushing. When fitted correctly, this is absolutely leak-proof and extremely durable.

Sikaflex 554 (Sika 252i replacement) 300 ml construction adhesive (white)

Correctly applied bonding is superior to any screw connection in tough motorhome or boat applications. A strength of over 4 N/mm2 can be achieved on painted or GRP surfaces, a value that would never be achievable with a screw connection in the thin aluminum or GRP carrier layer - and without any holes in the roof. This adhesive set enables even a layman to create an absolutely firm connection between spoilers and the respective substrate.

In the "Accessories" section, we have listed many other useful products that you can use to optimize, supplement or adapt your solar system to your specific needs.

Before ordering:

Climb onto the roof of your camper / caravan / motorhome and measure exactly whether you have enough space on the roof. Remember that you need space for the solar panel AND the spoilers.

Also take into account any objects that may already be on the roof (skylights, fans, antennas, satellite dish, etc.).

Also plan exactly where your cable feed-through is to be placed, where your charge controller is to be installed in the vehicle and where the supply battery will be and how long the extension cable from the solar cells to the charge controller or from the charge controller to the supply battery needs to be. If the 5 meters of solar cable and 1 meter of charge controller cable provided in the set are not long enough, you will have to adjust the set manually.

Installation:

Use the installation instructions supplied with the solar charge controller.
