A good fit for a 24 V cabin, tiny-home or camper system with an MPPT controller. Owners of 12 V PWM setups should take the regular MEGA 250 instead.
Amazon $269.99
For a van roof where a 175 W panel fits better than a 200 W one, on a 12 V system with a simple controller. Where space allows, a 200 W N-type panel gives more for the money.
