mBasic - the compact all-in-one solar kit for beginners & campers

mBasic is Offgridtec’s entry-level series for mobile solar power systems in RVs, trailers, or campers: compact 12V kits ranging from 100W to 300W, in which the solar panel, MPPT charge controller, and connection cables are already pre-configured to work together. This makes it easy to quickly find the right size for your power needs, without having to sort through individual components yourself.

Which power class is right for you?

The mBasic series ranges from 100W for occasional weekend getaways, through 150W and 200W for regular use, up to 300W for frequent travelers with higher power needs. Some kits are also available with an EBL option, which allows you to monitor your onboard battery’s charge more precisely.

MPP Dual Charge Controller for Efficient Charging

At the heart of every mBasic set is the MPP dual charge controller, which efficiently feeds the energy from your solar panel into your onboard battery. Thanks to the dual charging technology, you can make the most of the available solar power even under changing light conditions.

mBasic with Water Heater Option

For those who don’t want to go without hot water while on the road, select mBasic kits include a 10-liter RV water heater. This way, a single kit covers both your power and hot water needs in your RV.

Installation and Package Contents

Each mBasic set includes a solar panel, charge controller, wiring, and an adhesive kit or mounting hardware for installation on the RV roof. The components are designed to work together so that you can install your set yourself, even without prior knowledge of solar technology.
