Compared to 60w and 100w jackety panels both are sentinels.

A customer here after a PGE power outage in California. At first I would have only bought 60W but it was out of stock so I bought 100W; then a day later 60 watts were available again. Thanks to Prime's free shipping, I thought we'd compare them and stick with what I felt best suited my needs. Kolya's nearest store. To send it to UPS for a return, shipping costs $12. That surprised me - I've never experienced anything like it before.] 100W is robust, reliable and can charge 2 built-in USB ports…

Pros
  • HIGH CONVERSION EFFICIENCY: Monocrystalline silicon solar cells provide 23% conversion efficiency, which is higher than other conventional panels, allowing you to charge Explorer 160/240 power station (sold separately) in 4.5 hours / 6.5 hours. Perfect for camping on wheels, off-grid trips and unexpected power outages.
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine.

Stay within the Jackery ecosystem and it works

- Update - After my initial check, Jackery support contacted me for further action and upon hearing my general feedback they offered to send me an updated panel to replace my original 60w panel to provide. This is a testament to the company's commitment to customer satisfaction. I think it's great. +1 star for a great customer experience. Also a note on compatibility with other solar products; I researched Zamp further and found that they intentionally use non-standard reverse polarity…

Pros
  • EASY TO CARRY AND PUT INCLUDED: Weighing only 6.6 pounds, this solar panel folds up and is comfortable with a TPE rubber grip. The footrest is inclined at such an angle that the solar panel easily absorbs the energy of the sunlight.
Cons
  • Some small things

Be mindful of the heat! in Solar and Wind Energy

Solar Sega is the latest component added to our emergency preparedness plan (does not require running a generator). The 160 and 240 were primarily designed to address the design flaws of our personal weather station and fixed wireless internet. I bought a Solar Sega to use on long outages due to hurricanes, ice storms, etc. After hurricanes and severe summer thunderstorms break through and cut power, the weather is always clear and sunny. So Solar Sega's job will be to keep the power plants…

Pros
  • COMPATIBLE WITH JACKERY EXPLORERS:Jackery Explorer 160 and Explorer 240 take 4.5 and 6.5 hours to charge respectively with Solar Saga 60. This portable solar panel is also equipped with 1*USB-C and 1*USB- A equipped. Port that allows you to charge up to 2 devices at the same time.
Cons
  • Available in white only
