This was our first van-specific walkable panel, now discontinued. See our new and improved walkable panel options here.

Discover the outstanding performance of our semi-rigid 160-watt walkable marine solar panel, designed specifically for Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Ford Transit and Ram Promaster vans. These are NOT your typical flexible solar panels! With premium HJT solar cells, these panels offer good efficiency, featuring a durable backing and ETFE laminate non-skid surface that is designed to be walked on. For the best solar cells and efficiency look at our 160w sunpower panel. Ideal for van roofs, they redefine versatility in solar energy solutions.

The panel's advanced HJT technology delivers up to 6-14% more energy than standard monocrystalline cells. There is no glass and no aluminum frame so these panels are considerably lighter than rigid panels but heavier and stiffer than typical flexible panels. They can be bent slightly to match up with the underlying surface, about 5%. The white backing is better at dissipating heat. For maximum space utilization and functionality on your van roof, combine these walkable solar panels with our modular deck panels for the ultimate solution.

The Comvolt 4200 (with AC/DC PDU and 7-inch screen) is a game-changer for any setup.
Super easy install—mostly plug-and-play with minimal wiring. No fuss, no extra components to hunt down.
It’s compact, portable, and incredibly versatile: works flawlessly off-grid in a van, car, shop, home, or anywhere else. Everything’s built right in, so you get clean power without the headache of piecing together a bunch of parts.
Expandable too if you need more juice later. Hands down one of the most convenient, reliable portable power stations out there.
Nice work, Comvolt team—I love it! Highly recommend.
Thank you Orion Van Gear

Thanks so much for the great review. We’re stoked you loved the Comvolt 4200 and really appreciate the shout out. Also loved your YouTube video on it, great walkthrough. For anyone reading this, be sure to check out Reds Custom OffRoad’s YouTube video to see the system in action.

Nice addition to our awning’s lifespan.

Great side ladder for Ford Transit! We've got a 2023 Ford Transit 350 High Roof XL AWD with the Orion Van Gear Stealth rack and just installed the side ladder to go with it. It fits nicely with the side profile of the van and has been rock solid on two road trips so far. If you've got a roof rack and need an easy way to climb up to it, this is a great fit.

Thanks, Travis. Happy to hear the side ladder has been a solid fit on your Transit and is holding up well on the road. Appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

Great roof rack for Transit! We've been rocking the Stealth Roof Rack on our 2023 Ford Transit 350 High Roof XL AWD for a year now and it's been excellent. No noise, vibration, wind drag and it's designed nicely to snug up against the roofline. We ordered ours with the 2X scene (rear flood) lights and I highly recommend that. It's a nice easy way to shine some light on your loadouts and load-ins at night or while the sun is coming or going!

Stoked to hear the Stealth rack has been treating you well and staying quiet even after a year of use. The rear scene lights are a great call, super handy for night load-ins and early mornings. Appreciate you sharing the feedback.

Great rack for my 2023 Ford Transit 350 High Roof XL AWD! Have had it on for a year now and have no noise, vibration or wind drag issues. It's solid and nicely designed to lay flat against the roofline.

I am adding an extra battery to my system. The Ecofliw has been a great system. This will double the capacity. It was very easy to adopt and it is working flawlessly. Shipping was quick and I didn’t have any issues.

Thanks for the feedback. Glad to hear the EcoFlow system has been solid for you and that adding the extra battery was easy. Doubling the capacity makes a big difference. Appreciate you sharing your experience.

I had no issues with the installation of this fan. I was removing a Maxxair fixed vent unit in my car trailer and the opening was 14¼" x 14¼". An opening any larger and **** down the new unit would have been difficult. The only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is that the IR beam on the remote control is very narrow and has to be pointing directly at the unit in order to operate - I was hoping to use the remote while it was seated in the wall holder near the door, but no big deal.

Thanks for the detailed feedback. Glad to hear the install went smoothly and the fit worked well. The remote can be a bit finicky, but as you noted, it works when pointed directly at the unit. Appreciate you sharing the honest notes.

I questioned ordering from Orion Van Gear but they had good reviews so I gave it a try. I ordered a Maxxair 00-07500K vent fan, they had it at a very good price. I received it in a week, the part was what I ordered and in good shape. I would recommend Orion Van Gear, if they have something I need, I would use them again. I won't Install the fan until spring (it's December now) so I can't give a review on how the fan works.

Thanks Larry. Glad the order arrived quickly and everything showed up exactly as expected. Appreciate you giving us a shot and the recommendation. Hope the install goes smoothly this spring.

As advertised, straight forward install. Seems expensive, but it is way more stout than a strip of LED lights that goes on with adhesive. Slides into existing groove so there's no way its coming loose.
