Do you have an adapter to allow these Solar Panels to be used with Goal Zero Battery/Inverter Packs either 4.7 mm or 8 mm input ?

You will need a separate adapter, they come with alligator clips and cigarette lighter plug style

I don't know if you would want to put that kind of power through that small a cord. If Goal Zero says it can accept that much power through there I would say you can wire up your own but mine did not come with such an adapter. The charge controller on this panel puts out 10 amps at 12volts that alot of power. The wires that came with mine seem to be much thicker that what i see on the goal zero page for connectors.

It doesn't come with one, but you might want to send the specs and link to the Goal Zero folks, who are very quick to get back to you. There should be something out there in the adapter universe. If not, the Goal Zero panels are good but considerably more expensive. Goal zero does have a little cigarette lighter type adapter that comes with the Nomad 7 panel, that has a jack on the other end which may work. This panel is pretty heavy duty though, not sure if it might be too much juice. Or you could use this panel with an automotive jump starter like a Stanley Power Station with built in inverter or something.

I use a 20watt panel and a voltage regulator. If you have a battery,you will need a solar regulator.

I've hooked up several on a battery that I keep charged with a solar panel. If you are using a power supply just be sure to over size it.

MC4 connectors are used most often, they are weather tight, one each (male-female) from the panel . You will need to splice into or use a terminal adapter at the batteries. Make sure to use a blocking diode if you are thinking about connecting directly from the PV panel to the battery. Not needed if you have a modern charge controller. Good luck -Bill

Hello, I apologize but we do not carry and adapter of that sort, if it even exists. I wish we could be of more assistance. Thanks, and please let us know if we can help you with anything else. Have a fantastic day! Lance

Sadly you cannot. I wrote a review about how amazon has incorrect information, and even told customer service, but nothing changed. This is the one you want: Goal Zero 12003 Black Nomad 13 Solar PanelThe nomad 13 has a connector that will power the guide 10 plus, NOT THE NOMAD 13.5.

I can't even get mine to produce. The original inverter drained the batteries. What kind of inverter are you using?

The easy way is to get an inverter like this: http://amzn.com/B004MDXS0U and plug a 110V power supply into it. A cheaper way would be to use a voltage regulator to provide the 7.4V, but that requires some skill with electronics.

Not without an adapter, and I do not know if one even exists. You would have to check with Norelco.

Yes, you can plug the leads from the panel directly into the control board Power Inputs in place of the transformer. Cold temps will actually make a solar panel produce more power. I would monitor the battery voltage the first few weeks after installation to make sure that it is being charged. I have an FM500 opener with dual batteries and this solar panel has been working great for close to a year now with an average of two gate cycles a day.

Hey James - you can use any size solar panel as long as you use a regulator between it and your battery or battery bank. I have a 30 watt panel with a little regulator going to a set of 5 of these 35AH batteries. The panel is 20V, the regulator allows that to charge the batteries until they get up to something like 14.2 volts, then cuts off. Keeps the batteries nice and topped off and active for when we need them. I will eventually add more panels in parallel with the current one for faster charging. Here is a link to the regulator I am using: http://www.amazon.com/Sunforce-7-Amp-Charge-Controller/dp/B0006JO0XI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1384291827&sr=8-2&keywords=solar+regulator This is the panel I am using: http://www.amazon.com/Instapark%C2%AE-Black-Mono-crystalline-Solar-Panel/dp/B004FWW44Y/ref=pd_sim_auto_2

Eduardo,Yes, i have 4 microinverters in stock. Please go through Amazon to place your ordet.Thanks

Sorry I have not purchased the solar panel but there is a hole in the side of the camera to attach DC power.

hook the inverter to the battery bank. there is no way to run those kind of amps through the battery controller.

I have two of them wired into the charge controller via "RENOGY® 20ft. Adaptor kit Solar Cable PV with MC4 Female and Male connectors Connecting Solar Panel to Charge controller". Works great. Make sure the controller can handle the amps.

I could not find cable for sale that would connect the two. i purchased an extension cable for the solar panel, cut one end off and attached it to the controller.

I currently have a Morningstar TSMPPT60 to charge my battery bank. I previously had another charge controller that was also MPPT but it was not very efficient. I am using x2 gauge wiring on both the - and + input to the inverter.
