Will the Rich Solar MEGA 200 PRO FLEX (24V) work with the Jackery HomePower 3600 Pro Max?
Yes. One Rich Solar MEGA 200 PRO FLEX (24V) works with the Jackery HomePower 3600 Pro Max: about 44.7 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 60 V limit, and about 200 W in full sun. Two panels: works (1 panel on DC8020 + 1 panel on DC8020), about 400 W.
Works
1 x MEGA 200 PRO FLEX (24V) into the HomePower 3600 Pro Max (1 panel on DC8020) stays inside 16 to 60 V and under 12 A, even at 20F.
- A 24 V panel: 40.8 V open circuit on its own, so two in series only suit high-voltage solar inputs.
- Needs an MC4 to DC8020 adapter cable.

Quick answers
Will the Rich Solar MEGA 200 PRO FLEX (24V) work with the Jackery HomePower 3600 Pro Max?
Yes. One Rich Solar MEGA 200 PRO FLEX (24V) works with the Jackery HomePower 3600 Pro Max: about 44.7 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 60 V limit, and about 200 W in full sun. Two panels: works (1 panel on DC8020 + 1 panel on DC8020), about 400 W.
Can I connect two MEGA 200 PRO FLEX (24V) panels to the HomePower 3600 Pro Max?
Yes, 1 panel on DC8020 + 1 panel on DC8020. That gives about 400 W.
What cable do I need to connect the MEGA 200 PRO FLEX (24V) to the HomePower 3600 Pro Max?
Needs an MC4 to DC8020 adapter cable.
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One MEGA 200 PRO FLEX (24V) goes from 40.8 V on its label to about 44.7 V at 20°F and 46 V at 0°F. The HomePower 3600 Pro Max accepts up to 60 V on the DC8020.

Other panels that work with the HomePower 3600 Pro Max
- Jackery HomePower 3600 Pro Max: solar input 16 to 60 V on the Solar in 1 (DC8020). Jackery rates this input by working voltage (Vmp), so that is the number we hold to the limit. We still warn when the cold-morning open-circuit voltage goes over 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 40.8 V becomes 44.7 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 600 W on this input, 1,200 W across all inputs.
- 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.
