The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it doesn't come with the Z brackets. Those need to be purchased separately.

Easy up and instructions were great. I added 2 deep cell batteries and a 1000 watt inverter and it powers my chicken coop quite well. Also adds power enough for about anything I would need to a remote corner of my property.

I think this is a great solor system. But there a couple things i wish came with the kit.1) the mounting brackets for the panel's 2) 2 15ft cable instead of one 15ft you have to cut in half. Ive had them for a month and so far so good

The kit was perfect to add power to my shed. I added a deep cycle battery and now I have clean power in my shed. Cost much less than having an electrician bury a line from the main house and it’s clean electricity

When I bought this kit it came with an inverter which I did not use, but set the kit up to run a stand-alone well out in the pasture with a DC irrigation pump to keep three water stations for my sheep filled with float switches. Just had to add a deep cycle RV/Marine battery and it has been working great for over a year now! No issues so far so would definitely recommend, but now I see the kit is sold for $220 cheaper without the Inverter, which is fine since I didn't use it anyways. Will probably buy a few more of these kits to power things around the house/yard and to provide us with some of the luxuries when hurricanes knock out our power for weeks on end! A+ in my book!

Love it!! I've had this kit for three years. I live off-grid in New Mexico. Never a single problem. I did expand to a third panel and I do plan to swap out my inverter with a larger one. But all in all, it's been awesome!!

    System works great made a little shop out of a 40ft container in the middle of no where for my trucks. I’m running a fuel pump for a 2000 gal tank, def pump, time clock, led lights inside and out and running a nest camera on the inside. I would totally recommend this product. Easy to set up

    I have not installed the panels yet. I am waiting for additional wiring to connect the panels to the charge controller. The kit does not contain enough wiring to locate the charge controller a reasonable distance from the panels.

    good product
    excellent support from grape, easy to install, really charges and maintains batteries fast. much better product than i expected.may expand for more power. inverter operates on demand which is a very important feature for my use due to variable power requirements.

    200 watt system works great
    Everything you need except the wire to extend from your roof to your controller is provided in the kit , you have to make the connections by soldering or crimping the extend wires from your panels to your controller, even on cloudy winter days here in Pittsburgh my batteries stay charged and I can run my computer and light all evening.

    Nice Units
    I didnt know much about solar an the use as far as appts , but when i was thinking about traveling in my travel trailer for several months this is what i decided on compared to a Honda Generator for 2 reasons, one the same cost and no gas to use or haul around and i love it, i made mine removable so there would be no damage during travel and it works great, When u think that u have a converter and now an inverter and u use 12 power and very little 110 power , this app is ideal, i did however upgrade to the 2000watt inverter after more review research. Oh an please note that the online purchase thru Home Depot was a breeze Thanks Grape Solar and Home Depot
