It Works, but Your Mileage (Wattage) Will Vary
The media could not be loaded. I purchased this solar panel to charge a power station made by the same company. I mounted the panel on top of my van using a combination of adhesives that can be purchased here on Amazon. So far I have driven 3,000 miles and everything is working great.To actually get 200 watts out of a 200 watt solar panel, I think you have to have the panel at the perfect angle and be on a spaceship near the sun. Most of us on earth do not have such luxuries. At the perfect angle at the perfect time of day, I think you can get about 90% of the panel's capacity. On the roof of a vehicle (which is not the ideal angle), the max I was able to get was a little over 130w, and that was parked in my driveway on a cloudless day and 100F weather. You might be able to get more performance out of it, but bonded to the roof of a vehicle, I was not.That being said, the chest-style refrigerator I put in my van draws around 35w of power which means this panel was able to keep my battery at 100% all day long, with 130w coming in. Over night the battery would drop down with no sun coming in, but the following day the incoming wattage was enough to recharge the battery to 100%. Nothing like free electricity!I had to buy extension cables as the ones that come with this were nowhere near long enough to reach inside my vehicle, but other than that everything was pretty straight forward. The connected cables have MC4 connectors and my battery came with a MC4-to-XT60 cable and has an XT60 port on the side, so the panel plugged right in and started charging. Could not have been simpler to use and there's nothing like driving down the highway while charging your stuff!

86w out of the 100w panel
86w out of the 100w panelupdate 4.24.2024:installed three of these on top of our ex-uhaul box truck and I'm happy with their operation. It looks like they will fully charge our completely discharged anker f1200(1.2kwh) power bank on a sunny day.I did not want to drill into or pierce the roof so I used this tape, available here on Amazon, to mount the three solar panels: EternaBond RoofSeal White 4" x50'original review:brand new panel clean no dust about noon on a spring day in a Southern state the anker f1200 power station is telling(lower right 86w in the picture attached) me it's getting 86 Watts from the xt60 port that the solar panel is connected to.the reason I chose this manufacturer is that the panel produces close to 25 volts unloaded and my xt60 port can take a Max of 30v so the higher voltage is desired from this panel. since the anker can only take 10 amps the higher voltage gives a higher wattage and faster charging.I plan to use three of these in parallel to account for dust accumulation and not perfectly sunny days.according to documentation, if I present more than 10 amps the anker f1200 will limit to the 10 amps.got this panel with a Amazon / manufacturer coupon discount and for the price of close to $100 and it producing 86 Watts I'm very pleased and will be buying two more.the panel is well made thicker than others I have gotten with better grommets so I can easily recommend this to others.

Not going to hold up to being splashed
I took them on top of my boat out at sea and half of them died within 5 days and the rest after 3 months. As soon as the salt water got to the part where the wires come out they were fried. I opened one up and it was full of corrosion. Not waterproof or splash proof. False advertising. If you are going to get these wet I would highly recommend you seal them with fiberglass beforehand

Nice panel needs better grommets
Just got my panels today. Very excited on the weight and flexibility. Check the wattage output around 3:30 pm with clouds and was getting 100-120 watts. Not bad for a 200w panel that time of day.My only beef are the grommet's. Both panels had one that had fallen off. I was able to find the pieces and fix it myself. did not want to pack it back up and send back to amazon, big hassle. Since the packages were not damaged, this is a quality control issue. They need to verify all these grommets are tight before packaging

True 200w panels
Other reviews seem to be incorrect about incorrect output.I'm using 2 in series and hit 393w the first day I have them connected. It is cloudy and hot, so may see better production other days. They are producing 57-61v in series. Enough to charge my 48v lifepo4 bank.The crimp on 1 of the metal eyes was messed up which I have seen as an issue on other reviews, but I could easily reinstall it with some pliers.I expected to see 330w max based on other ridgid panels I have. Seeing 393w of rated 400w is great. Would recommend.As long as review is still up, panels are producing as expected. I will edit this review if they have issues.

Works out of the box with jackery and Ctechi
I am very happy with this solar panel. It charges my Jackery 160 and Ctechi 300. Both adapters were included. I have the 60 watt panel.I read a review that said the adapters were flimsy. I think they work just fine and are not flimsy at all. They plug in firm as they should. The cord is about 2'.I put the battery under the panel which also blocks the sun being on the battery. Also happy to see it can pass through to another panel so I may just get another one.My Jackery only charges 39 watts on AC charge and this panel will charge faster than that. The Ctechi has no screen so I can't tell how it does other than it does charge it.Mine also came with alligator clips so I could charge a dead car battery.
