Efficient and works well

This panel produces a lot of power for its size. I have older 40w panels and this panel is 1/4 the size and works great. Very impressed so far. I had it on my boat with an inexpensive charge controller and it kept my battery fully charged during lifts. I'll probably end up buying a few more of these and a few larger ones as I have many uses for them.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Nothing

Charge, charge, charge!

I'm tired of running generators and trucks that didn't have regular battery idolaters. I will install one for each as they will be stored long term and will keep the tension. The magnets I installed have a pull force of 88# on each corner so they don't get blown off when driving on the freeway or in strong winds. I'll give this one 5 stars but the rest of the time will be a real challenge.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Exceeds published specifications

A well built panel that exceeded my expectations. It is very well built, with a rigid aluminum frame and is well sealed (except for the terminal box). The connection box is located on the underside of the panel and is therefore well protected from the weather. In direct sunlight I have measured an output current of >1.5A. An external regulator is required to control the charge rate of a 12V battery.

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Replaced 5w panel on gate opener

The 5w panel I purchased with the gate opener kit was not enough to keep the battery fully charged. Bought this product based on the price and positive reviews. Mounts to the mounting arm that comes with the smaller plate, just needs to drill an extra hole. This item includes a handy plastic quick connector for the output cable. Measured power in Florida Full Sun = 19V, 0.6A (current below specs but still sufficient)

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Reliability

Works great - generators and portable power supplies

I'm just getting started on my solar energy adventure, but this panel seems to be helping. I installed it off axis at a fairly high latitude and was impressed with its performance. I haven't measured the output power directly, but the output power of the voltage drop across the diode indicates that it is suitable for rated power. It's been running outside my barn for months now. No problems to report, just constant, reliable power (when clouds interact).

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Works well. solar and wind powered

Used to maintain battery charge on a UTV. Really helps with cold weather starting. The frame and glass fit well together, but I added silicone sealant to ensure it's waterproof. The only drawback of this element is the location of the mounting holes - they are located on the bottom of the frame, which makes installation inconvenient. I used zip ties through these holes for temporary attachment to test the work. A few weeks later I drilled holes in the sides of the frame to facilitate permanent…

Pros
  • Multiple competitors
Cons
  • unreliable

Significantly cheaper repair for our electric entrance gate

the driveway just wasn't good enough. t produces enough juice to refill them. And that's despite the fact that we don't open and close it that often. Unfortunately, the regular replacement solar panels offered by gate manufacturers are insanely expensive, so I decided to try this option: 4x the rated power and a bit more. It seems to work well, although I deducted a star because the panel has no mounting brackets and nothing but a couple of unevenly drilled holes in the aluminum frame. We ended

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • I don't remember, but there was something
