Cannot be used in parallel or in series.

I suspect this panel is exactly the same as the panels from other manufacturers. They just seem to be the best panels in the bunch. Then they call it a 120 watt panel. The panels are exactly the same size and look as my other brand's 100w panel. The picture shows almost the best result I've seen when testing this panel. It was only 6W better than my 100W panel at the same voltage. I've been testing it all day, recording the power output and comparing it to my previous tests on my 100 watt panel and they were so close I think they're the same. That being said, the panels feel well constructed and the legs are more durable than others I've seen. I like the connection on this panel as all connections of my solar generator are on the same cable. This panel works well and there is nothing wrong with it unless you are expecting a 120w solar panel. This is incorrect. I sent mine back after testing as my box was very damaged and the output of this panel is about 20 watts less than I expected. I couldn't be sure it wasn't damage and that's why it worked so poorly. Also, the inability to use in parallel with another panel or series was a deal breaker. If you connect it to another panel, the performance of both panels will drop to zero. This must be registered in advance. It is not normal for one panel not to work with another panel.

Pros
  • Generators and Portable Power Supplies
Cons
  • Hard to say
