Will the Rich Solar MEGA 200 PRO (24V) work with the EcoFlow RIVER?
No. Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 25V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it. Two panels: don't connect (2 panels in parallel on Solar input), about 0 W.
Don't connect
Do not plug this in. Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 25V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it.
- Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 25V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it.
- A 24 V panel: 43.5 V open circuit on its own, so two in series (87 V) only suit high-voltage solar inputs.

Quick answers
Will the Rich Solar MEGA 200 PRO (24V) work with the EcoFlow RIVER?
No. Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 25V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it. Two panels: don't connect (2 panels in parallel on Solar input), about 0 W.
Can I connect two MEGA 200 PRO (24V) panels to the RIVER?
No: Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 25V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it.
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One MEGA 200 PRO (24V) goes from 43.5 V on its label to about 47.6 V at 20°F and 49.1 V at 0°F. The RIVER accepts up to 25 V on the Solar input.

Other panels that work with the RIVER
- EcoFlow RIVER: solar input 10 to 25 V on the Solar in (Solar input). EcoFlow sets this limit on open-circuit voltage (Voc), so we hold the panels' Voc on your coldest morning to it.
- 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 43.5 V becomes 47.6 V.
- Current over the 12 A cap is safe: the station takes 12 A and you get fewer watts. We count only the capped watts.
- Max 200 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.
