Solar Power & Electrical for Caravans & Motorhomes

Build a complete off-grid power system for your caravan, motorhome or campervan with Mestic solar and electrical products. This collection brings together everything you need: solar panels in rigid, flexible and foldable formats, MPPT and PWM charge controllers, DC-to-DC chargers, and all the cables and connectors to tie the system together.

Whether you are adding a single solar panel to keep your leisure battery topped up between trips or building a full multi-panel array with MPPT control for serious off-grid independence, every component in this range is designed to work together. MPPT charge controllers maximise energy harvest from your panels in variable UK weather, delivering 20 to 30 percent more power than basic PWM controllers in real conditions.

Start with a panel and controller for basic solar charging, or go all-in with a complete solar power system that keeps you independent from campsite hook-ups. All products are UK-stocked with free delivery and full manufacturer support.

Solar Power & Electrical Systems for Campervans and Motorhomes

A well-planned 12V electrical system is the foundation of comfortable off-grid touring. Whether you are building a campervan conversion from scratch or upgrading an existing motorhome setup, Mestic offers everything you need — from solar panels and charge controllers to lithium leisure batteries and wiring accessories.

Start with the right battery: the Mestic MLB-100 provides 100Ah of usable capacity in a compact, lightweight package with a built-in battery management system. For longer off-grid stays or higher power demands, the MLB-300 gives you three times the capacity. Add solar panels and an MPPT controller for silent, free charging wherever the sun shines.

Browse our battery guides and solar panel articles for detailed advice on sizing, wiring and getting the most from your off-grid power system.

Solar & Electrical FAQs

What size leisure battery do I need for my campervan?

For basic needs (LED lights, phone charging, water pump), a 100Ah lithium battery is sufficient for 2–3 days off-grid. If you run a compressor fridge, laptop and other devices, 200–300Ah gives comfortable headroom. Lithium batteries provide 80–100% usable capacity compared to just 50% for lead-acid, so a 100Ah lithium replaces a 200Ah lead-acid battery in practical terms.

Why choose lithium over lead-acid leisure batteries?

Lithium (LiFePO4) batteries last 3,000–5,000 charge cycles versus 300–500 for lead-acid. They weigh roughly half as much, charge 5x faster, provide stable voltage throughout discharge, and deliver their full rated capacity. Although the upfront cost is higher, the total cost per cycle is significantly lower over the battery's lifetime.

Can I charge a leisure battery with solar panels while driving?

Yes. Roof-mounted solar panels charge your leisure battery whenever there is daylight, whether you are driving, parked up, or away from the vehicle. For charging while driving from the alternator, you will also want a DC-DC charger which works alongside solar input to keep your battery topped up through the vehicle's charging system.
