Maximize Efficiency and Space with the NewPowa 180W Solar Panel
This is the top solar panel on the market for a flush mount inside our Sprinter Stealth+ Roof Rack, replacing the discontinued Renogy 175W panel, to maximize space and wattage output. For our Promaster Rack and Ford Transit Rack, we recommend the Rich 250W solar panel to optimize output for the available width.
The Newpowa 180W Monocrystalline 12V Solar Panel is a popular choice for van, RV, marine, camping, and various off-grid applications. For the best fit and aerodynamics on our Transit or Sprinter rack, use our Flush Solar Panel Brackets.
9 BUSBARS
The 9 busbar PV module outperforms older 5 and 6 busbar technology under ideal conditions. The reduced void space between the 9BB solar cells enhances overall efficiency by lowering current lengths and minimizing power loss.

Customer Reviews
Installed these on the 1010 cross rails on my Sprinter Orion Rack. They work like a charm: very easy to adjust, allow easy panel removal, and are strong and nicely finished. Good stuff!
Thank you for your review! We appreciate your business and thank you for choosing our product. Have a fantastic day!
Replaced my current panels on my Revel and was able to free up nearly a foot of space. This allowed me to mount my starlink much easier.
After Hurricane Milton, I was without power for five days. No amount of cleaning would get my two gas generators working again. These panels provide great power to my Jackery 1000 v2. Currently set up to deliver power through the Jacker to my desktop Ham radio station. Pulling terrific wattage, loom great, outstanding product.
Ted, We are so glad to hear that it help you after Hurricane Milton! Thank you for choosing Orion for your solar needs. Stay safe and stay powered!
Installed on a 118 WB promaster cargo, paired with the Orion stealth roof rack, and the flush mount brackets, for a near seamless finished look. 2x of these is the perfect fit for 500w of solar, powering my goal zero 1500x is more then enough to keep a charge on all my tools, run my portable goal zero atla 50 fridge/freezer, and still have plenty of power to spare.
We're thrilled to hear that the setup with our Orion Stealth Roof Rack and flush mount brackets is working perfectly for you. It sounds like you've created an incredibly efficient and seamless solar solution for your Promaster. If you ever need anything else, we're here to help. Happy adventuring!
These are perfect for a flush mount for my solar panels with the Aluminess DIY roof rack system! I’m able to fit an AC, (2) solar panels, and a Maxair Fan on a 144 roof.
I’m very pleased with the performance of this set up. My van was in deep shade until after 9 AM this morning and I still captured almost 100 AH. Boondocking game changer!
What a well engineered kit to add an extra 350 watts to my Solis Pocket roof plus a few more from part of my old solar panels exposure. They couldn’t have made adding solar any easier. Well done!
We're thrilled to hear that our Solis Pocket 350 Watt Solar Upgrade Kit was able to double your solar power output. We pride ourselves on providing well-engineered and user-friendly products, so we're glad to know that the installation process was easy for you. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy the benefits of renewable energy. Happy solar-ing!
While the stock 170W panel is enough to keep your house batteries topped up in good conditions w/ the just the fridge on while the van is parked in the driveway, it will not keep up with active use while boondocking for multiple days. With this set up I have been able to park and live/work in my Pocket 36A for 5 days (running fridge, Truma heater, lights, audio equipment, laptop, phone, WeBoost) in mixed wether without my house batteries becoming a concern. In light of other options that would allow me this flexibility, this package got me there very easily and relatively inexpensively in that I had already added the rack to mount my ladder, Fiamma 45s awning, and WeBoost Drive Reach overland antenna. The folks at Orion have been great to work with all along the way… quality products backed by top shelf customer service. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We are thrilled to hear that our Solis Pocket 350 Watt Solar Upgrade Kit has been a game changer for you. It's great to know that you have been able to comfortably live and work in your van for multiple days without worrying about your house batteries. We take pride in providing quality products and excellent customer service, and we're happy to have been able to help you with your set up. Thank you for choosing Orion and happy travels!
Well designed and crafted, made adding solar panels to our Orion Stealth rack a breeze.
Love these! Well made, and super plug and play with our Orion Stealth Rack. The added capture capacity is a game changer for extended boondocking. Wish I had room for two more!
Greg, Thanks for the stellar review! We're thrilled they've been a perfect match for your Orion Stealth Rack and have elevated your Solis Pocket boondocking experiences. Happy adventures!
