  "summary": "Four portable, set-outside RV solar charging kits compared on panel wattage, controller, contents, and warranty. All four are battery-charging kits with no inverter — usable AC power always depends on separate battery and inverter hardware.",
  "verdict": "These are portable charging kits, not power sources: none includes an inverter, so each simply replenishes a 12 V battery. On raw output the Go Power PSK-200 (200 W, 30 A PWM) and the Renogy 200 W Voyager suitcase (200 W, 20 A PWM) lead; the Renogy also publishes an assumptions-backed ~1 kWh/day figure and a 5-year warranty. The Go Power DuraLite 100 is the lightest grab-and-go option (~10 lb) with the most complete connection kit, but only a 2-year panel warranty. The RICH SOLAR MEGA 100 is the simplest foldable briefcase with an included waterproof controller, but RICH SOLAR does not state whether that controller is PWM or MPPT and publishes no itemized in-the-box list, so it carries the most unknowns here. All four use PWM (or an unspecified) controller rather than MPPT.",
