Solar ready

We have a Jayco Jay flight 195 RB. Trying assess whether it is solar ready, also at the front right behind the battery there is a block with 2 red and another beside it with a red and a black connection. Just to mention that we are new to trailers

Mine ways not solar ready. If yours is there will be a small plastic "port" on the roof where the wires go down inside to somewhere. If there is nothing on the roof like that yours is probably not solar ready. They don't include anything but the wiring from roof to somewhere.

I suggest you look up some youtubes on installing and running solar. Renogy has some on it's website under support, news and information. I bought a kit from Renogy and battery and found it easier than piecemeal. Plus they and a couple of others have a US presence so there warranty and equipment should be good.

If you go Renogy get a referral from an owner and get an extra 7% off whatever discounts they offer.
Lots of info available on the search bar but it is a bit clunky. Also many youtubes out there to watch before you start your project.
