Very practical foldable solar panel kit with excellent build quality

I ordered this ALLWEI 60W portable solar panel kit to transport my RV and charge AC/DC power supplies, Hulkman jumpstart batteries and other devices . take with me when I go hiking (camping without hookups). Upon opening, I was immediately struck by the thoughtful design and build quality of this solar panel kit. It looks like it's going to take a very long time. The material seems very durable and everything is stitched and assembled very well. It has a high quality Velcro with three stands on the back. It is very lightweight, easy to carry/store when folded, and very easy to unfold and unfold. Most of the time I use a "welded" DC cable that is stored in a velcro bag, but it comes with an extra DC cable and a cable with M4 connectors. Also included are adapters which I believe should be adapted to almost every power supply made. I placed the panel in my garden when the sun came out for a few hours today. I plugged in my power bank which was about three quarters full and in no time it was fully charged. The solar panel appears to have a built-in controller and only draws as many watts as the device requires. The maximum output it could deliver was around 12 watts, then it went to 10 and 6, and when fully charged it was at 0. There is some conflicting statements in the description as to whether it is waterproof or not . I see that it is written that it is waterproof, then in the questions they answered that it is not waterproof and you cannot get it wet. The instructions also say the junction box is not waterproof so don't get it wet. I suppose it should be called waterproof and it's probably safe to carry around in the rain for short periods of time but not leave it out in the rain. That doesn't bother me as it's not a panel that I would leave out in the rain like I do with some metal framed solar panels that are fully waterproof. The controller/connection box is located in the large Velcro pocket. , and it has a Type-C, DC and USB jack and a welded cable with a standard DC connector. All cables and adapters can also be stored in a pocket. So I am very satisfied with this foldable solar panel kit and I think it will be a great gift. Not only great for campers on wheels, tents or hiking, but also great for at home during power outages!
