The Solar MaXX is the most efficient solar charging product on the market today. It autonomously tracks the sun all day long providing the maximum amount of electrical energy to your batteries without any physical input from you. The Solar MaXX has a data base built in for every location in the entire Northern Hemisphere to aim the solar
cell directly at the sun using its built in GPS. It also has another photometric system aiming device to ensure that the sun is always 100% aimed at the sun. The Solar MaXX is unlike fixed mount solar systems that only receive a tiny amount of the energy from the sun; it gets all of the energy available from the sun, all day long, every day!

The weather proof Solar MaXX is super easy to set up, takes about 5 minutes, and the included 200-watt solar cell produces a lot of electrical energy for a multitude of uses. Currently 97% of the solar energy produced by the solar cell reaches the battery from the included 200-watt solar cell, the inverter and the wiring. It is truly a “set and forget” system. No more manually moving your solar cell around trying to aim it at the sun. Those days are gone for good with the Solar Maxx. Sit back and relax! You didn’t buy a camper to spend time manually moving around your solar cell. Now with Solar MaXX you can enjoy your time knowing that the sun is providing energy all day to your battery—the maximum amount of energy given the weather conditions of the day. Should a storm come up while you are away, the Solar MaXX senses a strong wind and automatically shuts itself down and lays flat until you return. After a day of collecting solar energy, the Solar MaXX returns to it’s starting position waiting for the first rays of sunlight to once again rise up and track the sun all day long.

Don’t wait, get your Solar MaXX today, you will not be disappointed. I rate it a 5 out of 5 Stars and only wish there were more stars available to rate it even higher.

We have owned an off brand fifth wheel, a Winnebago View, a Winnebago Journey diesel pusher, an Alliance Paradigm 36 RL, and now an Oliver Legacy Elite II. When I saw Solar MaXX in action, I immediately sold a very capable unused 200 watt Zamp solar panel for a third of the price that I had paid and ordered my Solar MaXX! We like the idea of a true four season RV and often hear fellow campers concerned about running out of propane to stay warm but they fail to understand that they need more than propane to stay warm i.e. that heater or new refrigerators needs those batteries to work! I am 81 years old with six back surgeries and knew I could not lift or move that Zamp panel around to supply my needs while boondocking! Yes, as Steve Landrom said “a real game changer! The brief demonstration of Solar MaXX convinced me that it was easy to handle, lightweight and incredibly accurate with its built in algorithms. I can’t wait to get my hands on the one I just ordered and look forward to sharing my experience with the actual product and yes, I grade hard🤔. I am certain at this time that I made a great decision to invest in product that provides the utmost in value and innovation! Thank you Solar MaXX for letting me determine the great value without any hard sales approach. I know I have invested in an ethical company!😎🤗🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

My wife and I have owned two different Oliver Travel Trailers since early 2008. The first Oliver Elite did not have any fancy (LiFePO4) batteries nor did it have any way to charge the two existing AGM batteries other than the onboard charger that had to be connected to 120 VAC. Needless to say, we were constantly monitoring our usage and always making sure to use our battery power efficiently.

In early 2014, we upgraded to the larger Oliver Elite II. This one was equipped with rooftop solar but still had AGM’s for battery power. Having solar was nice, as we were never campground enthusiasts. Now we could camp wherever we stopped for the night and not be reliant on the grid to recharge our batteries. This scenario worked well for us, until it didn’t.

During a two week trip to Arkansas, five straight days of gray skies sent us in search of a link to the grid. We were getting some power from the solar panels but where we were parked there was too much overhead foliage to allow enough of the limited sunlight to do us much good.

In early 2021 our AGM’s began to fail and, as I had always planned, I replaced them with Lithium’s. This has proven to be a real game changer for us as we are now more relaxed in our use of the batteries. But, having more battery power has inevitably led us to use more of what we have available. If we use lots of amp hours during the night it takes longer to recharge the batteries the next day and that’s assuming there’s good sunshine.

I soon realized that solar panels installed flat on the rooftop were convenient because they were always deployed and working, but they were terribly inefficient because they were NEVER properly aimed at the sun. That issue is the panel needs to have an azimuth of a perfect 90-degree angle to the sun and an elevation that is equal to your latitude and have the ability to automatically maintain that relationship to the sun constantly.

Up until now, there was no way to obtain this capability. But now there is SolarMaXX RV a new company that include camping enthusiasts and engineers have conceived, designed and built a portable ground based system that will use a 200 watt, 24 volt solar panel and automatically track the sun with a proven efficiency rate of at least 2X that of a flat panel during the exact same time period. Using a 24 volt system allows for a longer wire run from the camper to the tracker without the usual voltage drop incurred with a 12 volt system.

I became involved with the group in 2019 through one of the founders who is a fellow camper. They have graciously kept me abreast of its evolution through its several iterations of development. This past January, I was asked to take a pre-production prototype on our annual foray out to the southern Arizona desert for some testing under real camping conditions.

Upon arrival, I deployed the unit and attached it to my batteries. Since the unit is equipped with its own MPPT controller, I didn’t have to do any additional wiring. I turned the unit on and set it to tracking mode. It sat there for about 10 seconds and began to turn itself toward the sun. The unit has built in GPS so it always knows its location and the time of day. It also has an on-board almanac that knows what time the sun will rise and set. Using this data, it found the sun, set the proper elevation of the panel and began to track. About every four minutes the tracker would change its azimuth about one degree in its constant chase of the sun. As the sun rose higher in the sky the elevation of the panel changed to maintain the perfect alignment. At the end of the day when the sun had dropped behind the mountains to the west, the tracker retracted the panel and went to sleep for the night. When the first rays of the sun appeared in the eastern sky the next morning, the tracker woke up and spun around to again follow the sun’s daily sojourn across the sky.

I had the tracker set up in the desert for a total of about a week and the on-board computer and software performed exactly as designed.

They have a wheel-tire combo that has a removable tire that can be swapped out with different treads for different surfaces. The desert where we were parked generally requires a heavier tread than would be needed on turf or concrete.

For those of us that like to camp off grid for extended periods of time, this is an absolute game changer. By maximizing the amount of energy collected from the sun, it will recharge your battery bank much faster. Even if you already have a rooftop mounted system this will work in perfect sync with it without any additional modifications to your wiring system. You may simply use the enclosed alligator clips to directly connect the system to the batteries or connect via a standard solar port. Set up and initiation of the system should take only a few minutes and once done, you don’t have to touch it again until you are ready to move on to your next destination.

This solar tracker has lots of features like picking up the single solar panel and pointing it directly at the sun. It looks up at the sun and as the sun rises, the solar tracker picks up the panel and vertically points the panel at the sun. Furthermore, as the sun moves from the East in the morning to the West in the afternoon, the tracker turns on its wheels moving the whole carriage as it tracks the sun, ALL AUTOMATICALLY, both vertically and horizontally on a double axis.

One of the owners of Solar Maxx RV is a good friend of mine. He knew I camped a lot, occasionally camping off grid. He asked if I would test the solar tracker and give him my honest feedback.

I bought a fixed rooftop mounted 240-watt solar panel system approximately 3 years ago. It does produce additional energy over the earlier suitcase model, but I was tired each day of having to move and reposition the solar panels all the time !!!!! However, I was much more pleased with the Solar Maxx Tracker. I am considering buying two solar trackers. They are very easy to set up, take down and store in minimal space. Buying 2 units would be cheaper than the cost of my rooftop unit including instillation. Two big advantages would be no drag on my Solar Maxx and the biggest advantage is not having to go up a shaky ladder and clean my solar panels every day, rather dangerous at my age. I like that I can sleep in each morning knowing that Solar MaXX automatically begin tracking by itself the next morning. It also folds down automatically in the evening or when the wind blows the panel too much.

The Solar Maxx is a great value, has uniquely well engineered technology that surpasses anything on the market today for fully charging your batteries, and uses sustainable, renewable energy. It greatly enhances the ease, safety and enjoyment of off-grid camping. It delivers awesome power to my batteries so quickly !!
