Is this 100 watt solar panel suitable for extended backpacking or hiking?

To ensure excellent charging performance and outstanding conversion efficiency, we use high-quality, full-capacity A+ grade monocrystalline silicon cells, which bring the weight of this solar panel to 9.48 lbs. As a result, it might not be suitable for extended backpacking or hiking trips, but it is ideal for camping, RV travel, and emergency power backup.

What should I do if I receive this solar panel and find that it is not compatible with my portable power station?

First, please carefully confirm before placing an order whether your portable power station's solar input port is compatible with any of the adapters we provide (XT-60, Anderson, DC7909, DC5521, DC8020). If you're unsure, feel free to consult with us beforehand. Additionally, if you receive the solar panel and find it incompatible with your portable power station, please let us know—we’ll help resolve the issue for you.

Why is the actual power output of my 100 watt solar panel portable is lower than 100W in practical use?

The actual output power of a 100W solar panel is typically lower than its rated power due to several factors: Solar Irradiance: Rated power is measured under Standard Test Conditions (STC), which assume optimal conditions: 1000W/m² of sunlight, a panel temperature of 25°C, and direct sunlight. In real conditions, sunlight intensity is often lower due to cloud cover, time of day, or geographical factors, leading to reduced output. Temperature: Solar panels lose efficiency as their temperature rises. High temperatures cause a decrease in output power, as most panels have a negative temperature coefficient, meaning their output decreases as the temperature increases. Angle and Orientation: If the solar panel is not positioned to directly face the sun or at the optimal angle, it will receive less sunlight, resulting in lower output. Panel Aging: Over time, solar panels degrade, and their efficiency decreases. Shading: Even partial shading (from trees, buildings, etc.) can significantly reduce a panel's output, as it affects the entire panel's performance.

Please Note:Some portable power stations have a maximum input power limit. For instance, for Jackery Explorer 160 it has a maximum input of 42W. Even when using our 100W solar panel in optimal sunlight conditions, the power it receives won't exceed its 42W limit. This does not indicate that our solar panel has insufficient power output. Please verify your power station model and check if it has a maximum input power limit before placing your order.

If you want to charge a 12V battery (LiFePO4, lithium, AGM, lead-acid, GEL, etc.) using this 100w solar panel, please be sure to add a MPPT/PWM charge controller(not included ,you need to buy it separately), otherwise there is a risk of damaging the battery.

FAQS About 100W Portable Solar Panel

Worst the price and produces what it says

I have a predator from Harbor freight and a daiquiri it charges both of them with the attachments. Highly recommend was out of power for six hours the other day with the storms that come through on the 14th was able to keep my Internet up to stay in touch with family and friends and keep up with the weather while the power was out due to both the solar generators and I had enough sun on the 15th to charge them back up worth the price highly recommend direct sunlight if you mess with any solar panels, you don鈥檛 get what they say. I was running at 98 W not bad for 100 W panel and when it got hot, I was still running low 90s. I will be buying a second one.

Worth the money!

The solar panel is exceeding my expectations. One day it was bringing in 98 watts. I'm using it to power my Jackery 1000v. Today it is kind of hazy and is reading 71 watts. I'm planning on using this when we are camping to run some lights and to keep phones charged. Can't wait for summer to try it out.

Excellent product!

I am amazed getting as high as 96 watts on a Jackery 300.

Out performs Jackery. (At least my Jackery panel)

Just received today. Plugged it to my Jackey 300 and instantly sent 72 watts for charge. My 2 year old Jackery 100 watt panel could only average 12-24 watts, and for double the price. I'm hoping my panel was bad, and not the norm for Jackery. I'm gonna buy the 200 watt panel to charge my on board 100ah battery. Totally satisfied.

Great Solar Panel

Works well.
