ECO-WORTHY100W Portable Solar Panel with PWM Solar Charge Controller 30A, Foldable Solar Panel Kit Adjustable Kickstand IP65 Waterproof for Power Station Camping RV Travel Trailer

I picked this up on sale, so it was a good value for money. I bought it to replace my 100w Goal Zero Boulder suitcase panel, which I use for overlanding and camping, to charge my Yeti 400 Lithium that runs my fridge.My GZ panel is very heavy and cumbersome to use; it was also difficult to pack, since it was so large. This panel is a fraction of the weight of the GZ panel, but is still rated for 100w. Unfortunately, my Yet has a PWM controller, so the most power I have seen out of this panel is 70w. I also have a smaller Anker power station with an MPPT controller, but it caps out at 65w. While my equipment is incapable if fully utilizing this panel's capability, I have no doubt that it's output is excellent, as it is identical to the output of my GZ panel.This folding panel is only one I have seen with rigid supporting legs. They have limited adjustability with only two positions, but they are strong and sturdy, if somewhat inconvenient to use due to how they work.To set up the panel, you insert two rods into the support brackets on each panel and and the aim it towards the sun. The legs will not fold up on themselves like the fabric ones do. The legs are independent of the panel and so could be easily lost, but there is a storage place in the support brackets.This panel is light but sturdy and it has rigid construction with fabric hinges. Other panels seem to fail over time due to the sun fading and damaging the fabric material. This one should not suffer that same fate. They will be inherently less robust when compared to an aluminum and glass suitcase style kit, but they are sturdy enough for my needs and much easier to store and setup.I would definitely buy this panel again.

I have had this ecoworthy 100w foldable panel for about a year. It performs well for the money, especially if you buy it with a coupon. I use it to charge a vitoman 600x power station and on sunny days it will read over the 60w limit by the power station. I’m also happy it plugs directly into my power station without one of the included adapters.Based on reviews I’ve read on competing panels, pricier panels will probably be more efficient with getting 85w instead of 75-80w in full sun, but for my uses this functions well and is far more portable than an RV panel. One thing I would like to see changed are the legs. This comes with 4 individual polls that come off the back and are inserted into holes in the back to function as legs. Hinged legs would be way more convenient. Overall, I would rate this panel a 4 (if money is no object), but taking into account the value and this moves to a 5.

I got this 100watt advertised panel to work with my Golab 299Whr power station.After i received the panel (a 2 section fold-able panel system. I compared it to my 50 watt panel I had purchased a long time ago. The results were interesting. My 50 watt panel delivered about 38 to 39 watts (a little less than 80%) to the Golab; switching to the new 100 watt panel I got about 54 to 55 watts (a little more than 50%), same bright clear day same angle, etc. I expected perhaps 75 to 80 watts from the new panel. Clearly not a 100 watt panel, perhaps a 70-75 watt total.Folded the panels fitted nicely in the shipping box, it contained all the bits need to connect to the Golab. The legs are settable for several angles but are not permanently attached and could be easily lost.A bit disappointing. A few days later the price changed from $89.00 to $99.00, so i got a deal!? Other offered 100 watt panels cost quite a bit more, and were noticeably larger.Rudio

Gave it 5 stars even though it is not perfect. But it is available for a very reasonable price, and for the cost it does what it is supposed to do So 5 stars.Pros:- Nice catches & handle when folded up.- Mono-crystalline solar cells- Heavy duty wiring & solar controller included.Some Issues:- Included tiltable legs are very short and do not tilt this unit up very high. However - there are ways to improve on this by blocking the tilt legs up higher. I will be modifying the legs so that they can be adjusted longer as there is plenty of room inside the.folded case to accommodate longer legs.- Included solar controller provides no user control and no information other than a green light which illuminates when then panels are activated by light. However - there are numerous very inexpensive solar controllers available on Amazon which can be easily installed instead, and these not only have a display panel but allow some user control of output voltages, etc. This is what I added.- As others have noted - when this is folded up both sides have the solar panels facing out, so you want to be very careful not to scrape or damage the panels. So far I have kept, and use, the included box for storage, but eventually the cardboard will not withstand that constant loading so I will have to design some sort of protective cover (1/8" plywood maybe?) Having said this - it seems that all other portable suitcase style solar panels are designed the same way. Some include a large carrying bag that can be zippered around their folded panels, but even those offer little hard protection of the delicate outer panel surfaces.But this unit offered the best value, works well, and I am happy.

I was leaving out of my car for a while and need something to charge my battery. This stored perfectly in my sunroof area and also fit perfectly in my front windshield so I didn’t have to even leave it outside.
