Good portable solar panels

Bought these along with a portable power station for when we go camping or just around the house when the power is out. My first solar panels so wasn't quite sure what to expect. Went shopping and saw many at very different prices, this seems like a good mid-range product at a reasonable price. So far they're impressed. They're a little heavier than I expected but also seem pretty durable. While others say they're waterproof, the documentation for mine states they're waterproof and can withstand splashes, but they shouldn't be left out in the rain, and they still won't charge anything in the rain. Even on a cloudy day. I got 10-20 watts from it, not bad at my northern summer latitude. Built-in USB A and C ports make it easy to connect your phone or other portable device directly for direct charging. A few hours and it can fully charge my iPhone. Just remember to keep your phone out of direct sunlight to keep it from overheating! It can also charge my power station from 0 to 100% for a full sunny day, making it well suited for what I bought it for. There are a number of other connectors and cables that can also be connected to other devices. Everything is stored in a handy zipped pocket on the back of the first panel. The only thing that bothers me is the built in footrests. They're quite fragile, and while they support the weight of the slabs, they hardly do so. They're also on the first and third panels, which makes the end panel just hang and sag back so it doesn't get in full sun unless you prop it up with something else. Too bad they just don't include one per panel which would have supported the whole block much better maybe in a second version. Overall I am happy with my purchase. They may not be among the most expensive known brands but they seem to do their job well and are perfect for my needs. I would be happy to recommend you.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
