zamp

So, after tons of searching and reading I realize that the FR Wildwood FSX external Zamp plug isn’t feeding to the GoPower controller. But rather it is just a tap line to the battery. (As a side note, it shouldn’t be that hard to find out how the Zamp solar actually works.) What I’m now curious...

I believe that the Zamp port on my 2020 21NE is wired into the charge controller, presumably in parallel with my two 190 W roof mounted panels. Therefore, if I wanted to acquire a portable panel, I assume I would be looking to get a panel that is >=190 W, else a smaller wattage might constrain...

I recently fried a Zamp Solar Controller (ZS-30A) and battery fuse (30 AMP) on my 2017 FWC Raven. Being overcome with stupidity at the moment (regularly), I plugged a Renergy 175W flexible solar panel straight into my factory installed rear solar port without a reverse polarity adapter, not...

I am a newbie poster to the site. I’ve tried to scan old discussions to see what seems to be a pretty simple problem. I have a new 2020 4 Wheel Camper Hawk shell on our not new 2006 Toyota tundra. We have 2, 6V AGM batteries inside the shell - installed by FWC. The shell has a zamp labeled...

Scored A 2018/19 Fleet Shell and now looking to electrical. I'd love to be able to power everything off my Goal Zero 1500x [Link]. I also have no plans to connect the system to my truck...looking for all off grid solutions. Purchase Item #1: Overland Solar Bugout 130™ Solar Charger [link] As I...

We just got a new to us awesome 2010 19’ and it has a solar port on the front driver side. I am unsure if this model year came with a solar controller when the Zamp port was installed and need to figure out where to look and what it looks like. There is a victron bmv700 installed for Bluetooth...

In your opinion what is the best portable solar panel for the zamp port. I DONT HAVE SOLAR ON THE ROOF ONLY THE ZAMP PORT

I am a relatively new Rockwood Mini Lite owner (previously owner of a 2017 Rockwood ESP 2280bh Tent Trailer). I prefer dry camping although the rest of my family prefers full hookups at KOA. I have been researching solar panels for several years now to sustain my batteries off the grid and...

Hi Everyone, I'm new to the forum and need some help with my FWC Hawk. I bought a 2017 Hawk about 6 months ago, it has 160W solar and two AGM 79amp/hr batteries with the 30amp Zamp charge controller. When I'm camping off the grid, the solar can't keep the batteries fully charged, and...

Hi all. I'm just about to finalize my build sheet and need to talk about solar options. I chose to have the dual batteries. I understand that a solar panel will only charge my batteries unless I get an inverter. That said, I need to know how much solar power to get for boon-docking. I...

We're working on our build sheet for our 19 and I'm trying to think through the solar components. We're getting the 170W solar panel, which comes with a PWM GoPower charge controller. Because we often try to camp in shade, I've been thinking about adding a Zamp port so that we could have a...

We've ordered a 21' for June 2019 delivery. I'm trying to decide about the roof-mount solar panel: 1) I'm concerned about the additional penetrations in the fiberglass on the roof. Anyone have any issues (leaks, loosened mountings) with the roof-mount units? 2) Seems the collector panel would...

ETI just sent an email asking me how I want my customer provided Zamp port installed: A. You have purchased a solar panel without a charge controller and the solar port will be connected to the regulator which comes with the 160W solar panel. B. You have purchased a solar panel with a charge...

Can the factory wiring handle 100w at the rear plug and 100+W at the roof? Is there any limit to the capacity at the rear, 200w? I have a 100w panel (portable) that I plug into the rear, but was thinking about adding another 100w. I don't know if I want to mount it on the roof or run it with...

Had some spare wiring parts lying around so, at the suggestion of others on the forum, I made up a 12V connector for my Zamp receptacle. Now I have an exterior 12V connector when needed. When not in use I'll store it in the chassis passenger door bin.
