Anyone have any knowledge and used Rich Solar panels? Seem a good deal as includes regulator and all the bits and peices it seems:

Looked at the specs on the manufacturers website and looks same as Ebay specs seems OK quality and Anderson plugs.

I am purchasing an Ark Pack 1 battery box from Bunnings special order $216 but I can use their gift vouchers to purchase, 12v sockets, USB, Anderson plugs etc

http://www.arkcorp.com.au/p/2769/ark-powerpack. Just need to source a 130AH deep cycle battery

This will be running a Companion 60L fridge/Freezer plus the odd phone re charge and LED lighting at night

Any feedback would be grateful
 
Be careful with the wiring in some of the cheaper ones it can be insufficient to carry the current properly, that one looks ok with the fitted Anderson plugs. Also the regulators can be a bit dodgy and some are not waterproof.

You should have enough grunt to power the fridge and lights, the only exception would be if you had a few cloudy days having charge from the alternator as backup for the Ark Pack would be a good idea.
 
Thanks Happy John, seems a few good reviews on most of the panels on Ebay just a question of which one to choose.
