Foldable 60W Solar Power Charger

Nice portable panel setup. Works perfectly with a jackery 300. Got about 60 watts right out of the box, about a year later getting about 54 watts. Glad it came with a good handful of adapters to suit whatever you plug into it

I have family that lives in Ukraine and I ordered it for them since they have constant power problems.

Much nicer than I thought it would be…

I want to start by saying, I travel and work on the road. I wanted this as a backup for my 240W Jackery. The first couple times I used it, I was pulling 16 to 22 watts and thought that wasn't that bad. This is my 4th time using it and it's pulling 3 watts in direct sun. I'm very disappointed and I canned return it because I am on a 3 month long trip out in the middle of nowhere. No backup for me I guess. Disappointed.

Used this to charge my iPhone and it worked well in the morning sun.

Excellent

Initially upon opening the package I was ready to deduct a star due to a lack of any self propping feature. The only mounting provision is 4 corner grommets and 2 carabiner clips which are ok for hanging from a back pack or fixed object but unsuitable for optimal free standing positioning and placement. However upon testing I find it hard to penalize such good performance from such a compact folding panel. What you get is a 40w panels that does fold to 13" x 9" and 5/8" thick which is smaller than the laptop on which I am writing this. Included besides the 2 carabiner clips is a DC cable and an assortment of DC adapters. The panel has a USB and a DC port. For testing purposes I used this panel to charge a LiFePO4 battery comparing performance with a good conventional 40w panel and then another day to maintain a power station that was running a 12v refrigerator. Day 1 was a sunny late afternoon winter day. Charging the battery produced 1.7A to 1.9A through the charge controller and 20w into a 300w power station. Under the same conditions the conventional 40w panel was producing 1.6A to 1.7A and 22w into the power station. I was surprised and impressed with this little panel. Day 2 was a sunny early winter afternoon. Simulating a camping trip the panel was plugged into a fully charged 300w power station that was running a 12v Bodega K25 12v refrigerator freezer. The K25 has a 35w ECO mode or full power at 45w. For the test I ran it at the full 45w and set the desired temperature to 35 degrees. Outside temperature was 63 degrees and It takes about 30 minutes to get down to 35 degrees with the compressor running 30w to 45w usually in the 40s. The panel was feeding 29w to 32w to the power station at the same time. After the desired temperature is reached the compressor cycles on as needed but just like your home reefer a good deal of the time it is not running. With the panel constantly feeding 30w the station battery never dropped below 99%. Now in a real situation I would definitely want more panel; and more battery but with this optimal sun 2 days and a night would be possible. At any rate I had to give 5 stars.

I ordered this solar panel though the Vine program. I have only received it recently and this review is based strictly on my initial observations. The solar panel was delivered promptly and the first thing I noticed was that it was nicely packaged - for a moment, it crossed my mind that the sealed white bag contains an expensive electronic device and not a solar panel. The solar panel looks and feels like it's made out of quality materials. I had the chance to test it in full sun, 58 degrees, at Noon, by connecting it to a Bluetti power station - it is very helpful that a set of connectors is included with the panel. My power station (which has a built-in MPPT solar charge controller) only displays the charging wattage and for this panel the best I got was 29W so this panel's performance is certainly adequate. To me, what sets this panel apart from other flexible/foldable panels is the built-in USB ports, which allow the user to charge a smartphone without needing a solar charge controller. The panel has CE, FCC, and RoHS markings - it would be nice to also obtain a third-party certification like UL or ETL. Overall, I feel like this is a quality product and I am happy with it. While I cannot assess its durability, I hope it will last a long time.
