The Renogy 800W 12V Solar Basic Kit (RKIT800BC-G60D4) combines four 200W 16BB N-Type panels with the REGO 60A MPPT charge controller, Renogy's Anderson-connector controller with Bluetooth built in. Eight hundred watts is the practical ceiling for a 12V system on this controller, which makes this a buy-once array for an RV, cabin, or van that runs a fridge, electronics, and lights every day.
Who This Kit Is For
This kit fits people who already know they need real daily production, not a starter array: full-time or heavy-use RVers, small cabins, and van builds where a refrigerator, laptops, fans, and water pump run day in and day out. It is a panels-plus-controller kit; batteries and an inverter are not included, so you can match storage to your own usage instead of paying for a bundled battery you would outgrow. One honest note: the REGO 60A is a 12V-nominal controller with an 800W ceiling per Renogy, so this kit arrives already at its maximum array size; buy it because 800W is the right number for you, not as a base to expand later.

Why Renogy
Renogy has specialized in off-grid power since 2010, and the REGO line is its integrated-system family: shared connectors, app monitoring, and published manuals that keep a DIY install clean. Kit components are matched by Renogy so panel output, controller rating, and included fusing line up.

What Will It Run?
Using conservative assumptions (4 peak sun hours, 25% derate for temperature, wiring, and imperfect angle):
-
Daily harvest: 800W x 4 h x 0.75 = roughly 2,400Wh per day. Tilted panels in summer can beat this; short winter days will undercut it.
-
Example day: 12V fridge (about 1,100Wh) + vent fan (240Wh) + lights (75Wh) + laptops and phones (300Wh) + water pump and misc (150Wh) = roughly 1,865Wh, inside the estimate with cushion for a cloudy afternoon.
-
Storage to match: a battery bank of roughly 2,400 to 4,800Wh (about 200 to 400Ah at 12V) banks one to two days of production.
Estimates only, with assumptions stated; actual output depends on season, location, and shading.
Warranty & Support
Per Renogy: 10-year material and workmanship plus 25-year power output warranty on the panels (datasheet), and a 5-year material and workmanship warranty on the REGO 60A controller (Renogy limited warranty policy). OffGrid Horizon is a family-owned authorized Renogy dealer; we handle warranty claims directly with Renogy for our customers. Call (302) 496-3554.
Shipping
Ships within the United States. Four 23.4 lb panels plus components mean this kit arrives in multiple cartons, possibly on different days. Check panels for shipping damage on arrival and call us at (302) 496-3554 with any delivery questions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I add more panels later?
No, and we would rather tell you now: the REGO 60A's PV input is rated 800W at its 12V nominal system voltage per Renogy, and this kit ships with exactly 800W. If your load math says you will need more, step up to a larger controller or a higher-voltage system before you buy.
How should the four panels be wired?
Two strings of two panels in series, paralleled (2S2P), keeps the array around 75V Voc, inside the controller's 100V input limit per Renogy, while limiting current. Leave voltage headroom for cold mornings, when Voc rises.
Batteries are not included. Which should I pair?
The controller has an LFP profile, and lithium suits daily cycling. The Renogy Pro S1 12V 240Ah LiFePO4 (about 3,000Wh) matches one strong day of production; the Core 12V 300Ah self-heating LiFePO4 adds capacity and sub-freezing charge protection.
Is an inverter included?
No. For 120V AC loads, the REGO 3000W 12V pure sine wave inverter charger stays in the same REGO ecosystem and adds shore-power charging.
Roof mount or ground mount?
The included Z-brackets are for flat surface mounting (RV or shed roof). For ground arrays, source a tilt rack; ground mounting makes seasonal re-angling easy and keeps panels cooler, which helps output.
Can this also charge from my vehicle's alternator?
Not through this controller. Alternator charging requires a separate DC-DC charger installed alongside; call us and we will spec one that coexists with the REGO controller.
Will it work with a 24V battery bank?
The REGO 60A is a 12V-nominal controller per Renogy, so plan this kit around a 12V bank.
