Review on 🌞 GOFORT 60W 18V Portable Solar Panel: Foldable Charger with USB, 18V DC & QC 3.0 Output - Ideal for Outdoor RV Van Camping, Solar Generators, Phones, Laptops & Tablets by Steve Brethorst

As we are talking about portable solar panels, I thought I would stumble upon something I find important about portable solar panels. Some of these are efficiency, durability, portability, and the ability to charge multiple items. The efficiency is even very good at up to 23%. Other 60W portables that I own are 20-23% efficient. Apparently, 23% convert the sun's rays into electricity better and more efficiently. It seems to be quite durable. Wearable panels have a semi-rigid frame bonded to an outer fabric. Some portable devices have a flexible frame around the panels and some have a rigid frame around the panel. I'm not sure about the gofort panel fabric. Most of them feel like black canvas. Gofort has more gray denim. I think they chose it to stand out from the rest. I personally don't like it very much. In terms of portability, I have to give 2 stars. The size of this panel when folded is large, but how you wear it is important. This panel does NOT have a handle. I think you could carry it in your hand or under your arm. Thankfully, this panel weighs just over 4 pounds. It's considerably lighter than other 60W panels I've owned, but according to consumers, a portable panel really should have a handle. Finally, it's the ability to charge multiple items. I have a few batteries from different manufacturers and they charge them very well. I usually use 60w panels to charge batteries under 300wh. On the back of the panel you can charge two more cells while the battery is being charged. On the back is a USB-A and QC 3.0. Just in case you didn't know, USB-A is a standard connector that takes longer to charge a device. QC 3.0 allows more voltage so your devices like phones will be charged faster. Most 60w panels I own have 2 QC 3.0 ports AND a USB-C port. So if you're looking for a lightweight portable panel and aren't planning on heavy use, this is a great panel. If you're planning on using a portable pad for more powerful charging, you should look for something with more ports. Whether 60W, 100W or 120W.
