Will the Rich Solar MEGA 100 work with the Anker SOLIX S2000?
Yes. One Rich Solar MEGA 100 works with the Anker SOLIX S2000: about 25 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 60 V limit, and about 100 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in parallel on XT60i), about 200 W.
Works
1 x MEGA 100 into the S2000 (1 panel on XT60i) stays inside 11 to 60 V and under 12.5 A, even at 20F.
- The brand does not say whether its voltage limit is open-circuit or working voltage, so we check against the stricter open-circuit number.
- Use an MC4 to XT60i solar cable.

Quick answers
Will the Rich Solar MEGA 100 work with the Anker SOLIX S2000?
Yes. One Rich Solar MEGA 100 works with the Anker SOLIX S2000: about 25 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 60 V limit, and about 100 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in parallel on XT60i), about 200 W.
Can I connect two MEGA 100 panels to the S2000?
Yes, 2 panels in parallel on XT60i. That gives about 200 W.
What cable do I need to connect the MEGA 100 to the S2000?
Use an MC4 to XT60i solar cable.
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One MEGA 100 goes from 22.8 V on its label to about 25 V at 20°F and 25.7 V at 0°F. The S2000 accepts up to 60 V on the XT60i.

Other panels that work with the S2000
- Anker SOLIX S2000: solar input 11 to 60 V on the Solar in (XT60i). Anker SOLIX does not say whether this limit is open-circuit or working voltage, so we use the stricter reading: open-circuit voltage on your coldest morning.
- Cold raises panel voltage: we add 0.30% per °C below 77F (25°C), a typical figure, since this panel does not publish its own. At 20F one panel's 22.8 V becomes 25 V.
- Current over the 12.5 A cap is safe: the station takes 12.5 A and you get fewer watts. We count only the capped watts.
- Max 400 W on this input.
- Cold-morning voltage uses 0.30% per °C, typical for crystalline panels. This panel's own value is not published.
- Expected watts are the best case in full sun. Real-world midday output is usually 60 to 80% of that.
