So far after having it a month, it has charged my cameras. However, it is noted that when it is too hot (100 degrees and up outside) it will state that it won’t charge. It has left me to charge one camera with a plug in but on average it will charge the remaining without running out of battery.
Love these 50 watt panels. I turned two of them into a solar suitcase, using casement hinges from tugapower.net and standard hardware. Initially got 92watts in springtime SC sun when cold. Consistently get 82-92 watts using EPEver Tracer BN MPPT into BattleBorn lithium batteries. Even got 100 watts for short times under varying (cold, clear) conditions. Better than my flexible ETFE for desert Boondocking on public land, place heavy rocks on the stands to keep the wind from blowing them over. Newpowa has superior customer service. I received excellent warranty coverage on a 60w panel I had issues with. I know others have reported damage during shipping, but I have received 5 different panels, very well packaged and with zero damage. Very happy with these panels.
Easy to install. Quite strong motor. Built-in auto flap shutter. I used in in my storage shed to minimize the heat & bad smell & it does a good job. I installed it under my roof turbine & the size is perfect. Make sure u have make-up air like a vent grill to draw colder air. I have 2 at the bottom of the walls. I intallef the panel along the fascia so i don't drill holes into my roof. So far i still get most of the sunlight through out the day.
Is it worth the extra cost? Really subject. It can be said the features offered by the Sheathing are of VALUE. A user must determine if that value is valuable to them. I think it make the cable look great and professional. As far as I can tell, the actual 10AWG cable and connectors are on par with other I have.
This XT60 connector extension cable has nice terminations with strain relief and an external sleeve to help protect from abrasion. The connectors do not appear to be produced by AMASS (i.e., lacks AMASS markings), the original maker of XT60 connectors. However, they seem to be reasonably made. The wire portion of the extension cable is 12AWG and is quite flexible and the connectors fit well into my existing cables. This XT60 extension cable seems well constructed and should provide good service.
This little solar generator is a game changer! I’ve been living off grid for the better part of 5 years now and I’ve used several different solar set ups. This one is hands down my favorite! It’s exceptionally compact, super easy to use, charges fully every day even when it’s partly cloudy, and powers everything I need to get by quite comfortably. It’s got a bit of heft to it but it’s not overly heavy and is quite easy to carry comfortably for a good period of time. I’ve been using this one full time for about 6 months now and have had ZERO issues with it. Definitely one of the most worth while investments I’ve made. I just purchased the extra battery to add to the system because when we have several cloudy days in a row it doesn’t quite have the capacity to keep my little refrigerator going and eventually runs all the way down but that’s due to no fault of design, it’s simply the weather. The power station feels well made and the folding solar panel is durable and efficient. The design of the generator is simple and easy to use. I can reliably find the button I’m looking for to switch the various outputs on by feel alone in the dark. So far I’ve yet to really find a flaw or downside; it does what it’s supposed to do without fail. It survived hurricane Helene and gave me the ability to bring power to those whose electricity had gone out and kept several families out of the dark and able to charge things and run essential equipment. I would absolutely recommend this product to just about everyone. You never know when the lights might go out… will YOU be ready?
WHAT’S INCLUDED: 5W Solar Panel Micro USB to USB C adapter Weather Resistant Boot for Connection Solar Panel Mount Screws/Anchors Paperwork/Mounting sticker PRODUCT/THOUGHTS: This 3rd party solar panel was actually better than I expected. The panel itself is built well enough and I was originally concerned about the connector since I knew I would be using the adapter to convert from Micro USB to USB-C, but it does come with a little silicone sleeve that you can use to try and make your connection a bit more weather proof. The mount is a bit on the lightweight plastic side, but that part was expected. It works okay. It does come with a list of cameras that it is not compatible with so make sure you check that out but it should work with most Micro USB/USB C solar panel-based cameras. Everything worked out and my camera shows it’s charging at the correct wattage so I can recommend it for now.
I was honestly surprised by this portable charger. It can charge and power a lot of thing such as a coffee maker, fan, recharge my phone multiple times from 0-100% it can even recharge my Steam deck 2 1/2 times from 0-100%. Definitely worth it. I wills this it won’t power an A/C or a heater but it will do pretty much everything else. Also come with a light which is a nice bonus feature. Very happy with product. Would easily recommend for yourself or as a gift.
Right out of the box, I noticed how heavy-duty and durable this generator cord is. Additionally, the power inlet box the cord came with is also heavy-duty and large enough to easily connect the appropriately sized wires inside the box. The generator extension cord features an NEMA 14-50P plug on one end and a NEMA SS 2-50R receptacle on the other end. The end with the receptacle also features a threaded ring that keeps the receptacle properly seated in the power inlet box. The extension cord also comes with a large storage bag and a handy easy-to-use plastic cord wrap handle, which makes it simple and easy to keep the cord properly stored. The generator power inlet box seems to be a high-quality and robust receptacle box with a large and easy-to-use receptacle cover. This receptacle box comes with a preinstalled ground cable, mounting hardware, and instructions and features plastic hole plugs on the left and right sides of the box as well as the bottom and back sides of the box. This receptacle box also features a green LED indicator lamp that indicates when the receptacle is energized. The terminal screws are easy to get a screwdriver on since they are angled such that the screw holes are accessible on either side of the top corners of the front plate. After test-fitting the generator extension cord with this receptacle box, I found that the generator extension cord fits perfectly in the receptacle and easily twist-locked into place properly. I especially appreciate the amount of room inside the receptacle box that allows easy installation of the necessary wires and wire nuts. Overall, this generator extension cord and power inlet box both seem to be high-quality, durable, and heavy-duty. As heavy-duty as the cord is, it is still flexible enough to easily work with. The green LED indicator lamp on the power inlet box is a nice addition to the receptacle box and the large cover makes it easy to open and close with gloves on.
This solar panel is the real deal. I bought this to keep on hand for emergencies. I live in Florida and coincidentally hurricane Helene hit soon after. We lost power and this panel charged my ecoflow delta 2 like a champ. Consistently provided anywhere between 340 to 360 watts. The panel is built incredibly well with premium materials. Fully waterproof too, which is nice because when it rained, I just left the panel outside, and the solar panel literally weathered the storm and works just fine. Definitely recommend the solar panel for larger power stations. Pros: very high output and very efficient, durable, waterproof construction, includes an adapter cable that worked with my power station and is also 12awg gauge so it can safely handle high current, the detached kickstand brackets I prefer because they’re very strong and sturdy which helps the panel stay upright if there’s any wind, and the carry bag is a nice addition. Cons: it’s big and heavy but that’s expected with a 400 watt panel, the detached kickstands are a little difficult to use at first due to the sheer size of the solar panel but are manageable once you get the hang of it (and you don’t need to constantly take it down since it’s waterproof so not really much of an issue).
plugged it in my camera and for two days i had no camera does.not power it on at all
It was a challenge to get the brackets on. This didn’t come with instructions but it didn’t take long to figure it out. Once I jacked up the generator I lined up the holes on the wheel brackets with the bolts on the underside. It fit nicely and functions as intended. A great value for the money. And recommend for anyone who prefers a smoother transport.
I got this item specifically for camping. haven't tried it during camping yet but have tested it out and it works great! charged for a few hours and had let it running and it was perfect! Charging speed was fine, didn’t need it to go fast. Great for different types of charging options
Light weight, nice quality, comes with all the essentials necessary to make the install quickly. I installed this trickle charger on a standby generator in order to maintain the battery for start ups. I now have had this installed for approximately a year and appears to be working great.
Bought this item to cut costs. This is for the sturdy solar panel. I secured it with wood so that It would fit my EcoFlow 400w folding solar panel. Angle iron prices are through the roof and it’s far too expensive to build one myself. I don’t know how strong it is with the sturdy solar panel but it definitely worked out for me.
