- 1 x KickAss 12V 250W TOPCon+ Fixed Solar Panel
Featuring advanced N-Type TOPCon monocrystalline cells, the new and improved KickAss 250W Fixed Solar Panel delivers up to 25% conversion efficiency – performing brilliantly in heat, low light, and partial shade. Built tough with tempered glass, an aluminium frame, and rated IP68, it's ideal for mid-sized installs on caravans, 4WDs, and off-grid setups.
The KickAss 250W TOPCon+ Fixed Solar Panel is engineered for mid-sized installations where performance, durability, and efficiency all matter – sitting right in the sweet spot of our fixed panel range between the 170W and 350W models.
Next-Generation Solar Cell Technology
At the heart of this panel are N-Type TOPCon monocrystalline solar cells – a significant step up from conventional solar technology. TOPCon cells reduce electron recombination, meaning less energy is wasted and more of it ends up powering your setup. The result is stronger real-world performance, particularly in the conditions Australians actually encounter: scorching summer heat, hazy overcast skies, and those marginal morning and afternoon hours when traditional panels struggle to deliver.
Built to Handle Anything & Everything
This panel isn't just high-performing – it's built to last. A toughened tempered glass surface protects against impacts and abrasion, while the robust aluminium frame resists corrosion and withstands the kind of vibration and weather exposure that comes with years on the road or roof.
IP68 Rated & Industry-Standard MC4 Connectors
Dust and water ingress are two of the biggest threats to solar panel longevity. That's why this panel carries an IP68 rating – the highest level of protection against both. Paired with industry-standard MC4 connectors, you get a secure, weatherproof electrical connection that integrates seamlessly with compatible solar charge controllers, battery systems, and existing solar setups.
Up to 25% Conversion Efficiency
With conversion efficiency reaching up to 25%, the panel punches well above its weight in terms of power output relative to its physical size. Higher efficiency means you're extracting more usable energy from every hour of sunlight – which translates to faster battery charging, better overall system performance, and the ability to do more with the roof space you have available.
Reliable Power In All Conditions
One of the standout qualities of TOPCon technology is its performance in less-than-ideal conditions. This panel continues to generate meaningful power in partial shade, overcast weather, and low-light environments – so your batteries keep charging even on cloudy days or when the panel is partially obstructed. For off-grid travellers and campers, that consistency can make a real difference to how long you stay self-sufficient.
Flexible Wiring Configuration
The KickAss 250W Fixed Panel supports both parallel and series wiring, giving you the freedom to design a solar system that suits your specific power requirements. Whether you're running a standalone setup or expanding an existing array, this panel integrates easily into a range of configurations – making it a practical choice as your system grows.
18-Busbar Cell Design for Greater Efficiency
This panel features an advanced 18-busbar layout across its solar cells. More busbars mean improved electrical conductivity and reduced resistive losses as current travels across the cell surface. It also contributes to better durability – spreading mechanical stress more evenly across the cell and reducing the risk of microcracks developing over time in demanding outdoor conditions.
Lightweight Without Compromising Strength
At just 13.2kg, this panel strikes an excellent balance between robustness and portability. It's easy to handle during installation and won't add unnecessary load to your vehicle or roof structure. For caravan and 4WD owners where every kilogram counts, that weight saving is a genuine practical advantage.
Simple, Permanent Installation with Pre-Drilled Mounting Holes
Getting this panel installed is straightforward thanks to its pre-drilled mounting holes, which are designed to speed up fitment and reduce the need for modification. Whether you're mounting it to a caravan roof, canopy, camper trailer, or boat, the panel is ready to go – minimising installation time and making it accessible even for those tackling the job themselves.
1 x KickAss 40A 12V/24V/36V/48V MPPT Solar Charge Controller
Harvest more energy! This ultra versatile 40A MPPT charger will charge 12V, 24V, 36V & 48V battery systems. Monitor your system remotely via the Bluetooth App or an optional remote display screen.
KickAss 40A 12V/24V/36V/48V MPPT Solar Charge Controllers Features Overview
The KickAss 40A 12/24V MPPT Solar Controller uses the latest dual-peak and multi-peak tracking technology available today.
Highly Efficient MPPT
With a tracking efficiency of at least 99.5% and a peak conversion efficiency of 98%, you can be confident that your dual battery system is receiving the optimal charge.
The KickAss 12/24V MPPT Solar Controller series accurately identifies and tracks multiple power points, and includes built-in self-diagnostic technology to help prevent damage from installation and system failures.
Battery Temperature Sensor
Equipped with a temperature sensing probe, the KickAss 12/24V MPPT Solar Controller can limit the current output to your battery, preventing overheating and overcharging if a fault occurs with the connected battery.
LCD Display
The easy-to-read LCD display shows all crucial charging information dynamically (note that the LCD is not backlit).
Pair with
- KickAss Remote Control LCD Display For MPPT Controllers
- KickAss Bluetooth MPPT Module
These devices allow for convenient viewing of your controller in tight spaces and can connect to the KA Solar App on your smartphone for added convenience.
**Please Note: this unit is not a full battery management system, it is simply an MPPT with a load output**

Do not get the controller wet, as it is not waterproof and will be damaged by moisture.
This device is a charge controller, not a complete battery management system. It is designed to power small accessories like LED lights. However, the load output is dependent on the solar input (daylight and darkness) and does not provide a consistent power supply suitable for running appliances like a fridge or freezer. Therefore, we advise against connecting electronics that need stable and reliable power directly to the MPPT Solar Controller. Instead, all accessories should be connected directly to your battery bank using appropriately fused circuits.
x2 Anderson to Bootlace Ferrule Connectors Included
The unit comes with x2 Anderson to Bootlace Ferrule Connectors – the Anderson plug makes setup simple, while the bootlace ferrule ensures a clean, secure fit into the controller’s terminals.
