200W Portable Solar Panel for Power Station, Foldable Solar Charger w/ 4 Kickstands, IP65 Waterproof Solar Panel Kit w/DC XT60 Anderson Aviation Output for Outdoor RV Camper Blackout

I bought this 240W foldable solar panel mainly for camping and as a backup at home. It’s simple to set up, just unfold and face it toward the sun. The foldable design makes it easy to carry, and it doesn’t take up much space when stored. So far, it has worked reliably with my power station, giving steady charging during sunny days. The build feels sturdy but not too heavy, and the waterproof feature is a nice extra for outdoor use. I like that it comes with multiple connectors, so it’s compatible with different devices. Overall, this solar panel does what it promises. It’s not meant to replace your main power, but it’s very practical for camping, RV trips, or emergencies. I’m happy with it and think it’s a useful and reliable choice.

Great solar panel. We haven’t had it long but we have hooked it up in multiple weather conditions and it does work well. It draws different amounts of watts based on weather conditions and placement so it’s not always 100 which we knew when we bought it. You have to be reasonable when buying solar panels. It is tough and did well during an ice storm when outside. The design works well and has legs in the back to prop it up. The cables are pretty long but you have to keep the generator pretty near it, so we got some extenders. When storing this it’s pretty slim and fits into our small closet, but it’s still a pretty good size panel. We’d love a bigger wattage one to try out one day.

great quality solar panel! little longer than I anticipated but not a big deal! comes with EVERYTHING you'll need to connect to other panel brands, solar generators etc. a lot sturdier that pictures show. little "kickstands" on the back hold this big panel surprisingly well at all angles, wind will obviously have an effect on that but for general conditions they work perfect! fold up to a manageable size for storage/transport. I've been watching the grecell products for 2yrs now and recently purchased the grecell H2400 portable solar generator kit, that came with 2, 100w panels. so I then decided to just buy the 200w pro panel, giving me a total of 400w! this alone charged my H2400 from 45% to 60% in 2hrs! thats pretty dang good, and efficient for just 1, 200w panel!! price is good for a great quality 200w panel too! sturdy, well made, easily folds up, all the connectors you need, definitely cant beat it! i will definitely be getting another one, possibly 2 sooner than later!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND grecell products! I have yet to see or read ANY negative reviews about grecell products! IMO, they're under rated in the portable solar generator world! definitely worth the money if your looking for a fantastic solar generator and panels!! thanks grecell, im definitely a extremely happy customer and will be purchasing more items!!!!!

At first glance, this Grecell 100W looks like a copycat of the Jackery SolarSaga 100 with its color scheme, folding design, and handles that close magnetically. IN A NUTSHELL The Grecell 100W, like the Jackery Solarsaga 100, just folds in half and is held together by strong magnets, accented by a rigid, bright-orange carry handle across the top. Within the built-in carry pouch is a built-in MC4 connector cable ready to be plugged into a battery power station with an appropriate extension cable. On an overcast morning, it had achieved as much as 59W of output whereas the Jackery SolarSaga 100 got 53W. The differential was small, and so I tested it again on a clear, sunny day. The Grecell achieved 84W and the Jackery got 72W. That's pretty good efficiency as most monocrystalline solar panels lose at least 25% due to power conversion. A built-in kickstand helps orient the panel at an optimal, 45 degree angle for maximum sun exposure, and a built-in pocket allows for cables to be stored. Note that this solar panel is NOT waterproof. It should be kept out of the rain, but then again, if it is raining, the sun probably won't be out. Multiple adapters are included and I tested connectivity with Jackery, Goal Zero, and an off-brand Rockpals battery power station. All three worked with this panel as expected. As long as the power station is able to accept the panel's 20V of output, you are golden. I also connected it in parallel with the 18V Jackery SolarSaga 100, and that took the panels from 53W/58W to a combined output of 102W. You should almost NEVER connect multiple solar panels in sequence/a series -- you should almost ALWAYS hook them up in Parallel with a Y-split or combiner cable. (Goal Zero has a 4x combiner cable to hook up to 4 solar panels). Overall, the Grecell 100W solar panels are beautiful, sturdy, efficient, and portable and worked well with a variety of battery power station vendors and solar panels. Having the MC4 connector out of the box makes the Grecell compatible with an industry-standard connection, but some power stations may only accept APP (Anderson) connections -- in that case, use the included MC4-to-APP adapter cable. TIPS/NOTES - Panel lifespan: Panels generally die/become inefficient between 25-30 years -- They may last longer, but would produce less energy - Solar panels work best outdoor under full sun exposure -- Although the panels will work under the shade or behind windows, charging efficiency is greatly diminished -- Panels will STILL charge under cloudy conditions. So, keep the panels out even if you do not see the sun -- Operating temperature range: 14F to 149F (-10C to 65C) -- ONLY the solar panels can (and should) be directly under the sun while charging a battery power station --- Keep the power station in the shade to prevent overheating - ALL panels must be uncovered to generate a charge -- Do not completely cover one or more panels or the charging will stop - To maintain solar efficiency, the panels should be kept clean -- Remove dust with a soft brush and wipe with a damp (NOT wet) cloth -- Any residue, such as tree sap, should be removed as soon as possible -- Keep panel away from water that spray at greater than 60 degree angles -- Keep panel away from low-pressure (or stronger) water jet spray -- Do not submerge the panel under water -- Panels will work longer if they are kept away from water altogether - Do NOT bend the panels more than 30 degrees or risk breaking them! - Keep the panels away from fires and heaters CHARGING TIMES When using solar panels to charge battery power stations, the amount of energy the battery may accept could be throttled to prevent overcharging. Example: Jackery Explorer 1000 slowed incoming wattage from 70-80W to about 50W once it reached 70% battery charge. HOW MANY WATTS DOES A DEVICE USE? - Calc: Watts used by device = Voltage x Amperage - If a vacuum is 120V and 9.5A, it uses 1,140W HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SOLAR CHARGE A BATTERY POWER STATION? - Calc: Hours to charge battery = Battery capacity (Wh) / (Panel Wattage x [0.5 or 0.75]) -- In a perfect lab environment, solar panels charge at the indicated wattage (ie. 100W) -- Expect to only receive 50-75% on a good, sunny day (ie. 50W – 75W), depending on environmental conditions, panel's age, and component quality -- Tip: Even if it is overcast, the panels will STILL collect solar energy. Keep charging! - Charging with a 100W solar panel -- Jackery Explorer 500: As fast as 6.7 hours [500 Wh / (100W x 0.75)] -- Jackery Explorer 1000: As fast as 13.3 hours [1000 Wh / (100W x 0.75)]
