Description
- *High Efficiency: solar panels use new Perc solar monocrystalline cells, up to 23% conversion rate, 100w solar panels are smaller, lighter and more portable
- *Semi-Flexible: The plastic back sheet can be curved to a maximum 30 degree arc and mounted on RV, boat, cabin, tent, car, trucks, trailers or any other irregular surface.
- *Thin & Lightweight:100W solar panel weighs approximately 4lb,Thickness is 0.1in, weighs 70% less than conventional solar panels, making transportation and installation a breeze.
- *Practicality: Light energy converts electricity, Practical and suitable for use in areas where electricity is not available and where the city cannot reach, such as mountains, marine, deserts, and remote areas
- *Nice Details: The component contains a bypass diode, and the circuit uses input over current protection and reverse protection design.The solar panel has 6 grommet mounting holes are available to attach fasteners,and can also be installed with silicone and adhesive tape.

Bought with 12 volt DC 1″ submersible pump for remote watering of our raised flower/vegetable gardens and remote livestock watering from an existing well near the back of our 7 acre property. We had an old deep cycle marine battery to store the energy, and some 1 ” abs pipe in the barn. Took about two hours to build a frame to mount the panels and get it all set up then just set the timer on the charge controller and watch daily from our kitchen window as everyone’s thirst is quenched! What a time saver. This investment still less expensive than buying a new gas powered water pump and our little part to start reducing our carbon footprint. This system has now been running for a few weeks and we are very happy with this kit we bought.

Exactly what I needed

These came well packed and I had no issues with damaged solar panels. I was not using the charge controller as I have my own MPPT controller and was pairing these panels up with another set of the same panel.
They work well, under full sun I was charging at nearly 20 amps with the 4 panels I had. Even in low light they keep my battery bank topped off.

Received 100w solar kit with open box with no charge controller, so reponses was fast and sending controller to me all good but not. Was bored so decided to check the out put of solar panels, in full summer sun florida end of July when you can cook bacon and eggs on the hood of your car if you want to, I Iam getting a continuous 0.19 volts from panel. looks like I will have to wait until Christmas to get my 100a battery charged, wish Christmas was here all ready. Was looking forward to trying my new 1000w inverter on my new mini fridge but have no 110 charger to charge battery, Free Solar Kit just pay Shipping. Probably could charge a kids Fisher Price toy but may have to wait a month to recharge but could limit your kids to one minute a day that could work. On a good note, order a 110v smart charger and will be here tomorrow, so much for the off grid living should have known better my grandfather and dad both taught me better but still like throwing the dice what was I thinking, back to the drawing board which means opening the pocket book try and buy USA.
Editing my review because of my stupidity, Here is the scope, my voltage tester was working fine on my 36v e bike but when testing the output volts on solar panel is was 0.19v not good. after charging my new 100a lifepo4 battery and testing the voltage, tester said 12v not good something is wrong, so ordered new volt tester and new volt tester said lifepo4 battery is at 13.59 spot on right. Tested solar panel output with new tester and getting 20v great, 100w divided by 20v equal 5.0 amps good with that. The story here is you can’t allways trust electrictronics, why my tester is working right at a higher voltage but not at lower voltage is some what baffling to me, just another day in wonder land, hope this will help someone else.

I have other solar panels from the same supplier and they all work fine. As this is part of an experiment for a few hours of sunlight on a 4 panel setup I get 50A/hours of energy collection a day. Think this kind of data needs to be supplied so people can build systems knowing the energy output not the 100W energy per panels which is not realistic energy harvesting.

Rates at 110w with a 23% efficiency. Now the best I got was 65w for a few seconds then falls to 59-61w. And yes I did have them at the correct angle, the shadow was dead on the dot.

I bought these panels to put on a teardrop camper I built. I tested the panels at 6,000 feet above sea level and they are around 18 watts short of the rating, which is fine with me. The issue I had is the solar charge controller. During the panel testing phase it only lasted 2 hours before it burnt out and never worked again. Thankfully I already had a Renogy 40amp MPPT on the way. Lightweight flex panels though, decently cheap and they work just fine.

The media could not be loaded.
Did not receive charge controller.
I found that panels do produce power when connected in series to get the right voltage for my battery. However, they produce the same amount of power as my single 100 Watt foldable panel. On the same November day the two “100 watt” X panels produced 36 watts while my foldable 100 panel was producing 36-43 watts. I think as many other reviewers have noted these are probably actually 50-60 watt panels.
I waited to try these and kissed the return window. There is no contact information anywhere for customer service. Do not make my mistake.

I bought a C15 fridge big enough to hold a 12-pak+. One solar panel kept my Bluetti EB3A charged on my June trip to Utah. Each night, the battery fell to 27-43%. The fridge was set to 34F (1C). The solar panel charged the battery bank faster than it could discharge.
Daytime temps outside my car were high 80’s and low 90’s. I had almost no shade the whole trip.
The most I saw was 60W actual production on the clearest day, so nowhere near 100W. I’ve never seen a panel yet that gives what it’s rated for. For the size, weight, cost, I was surprised that it kept up with demand. I never had to plug my Bluetti into my car while driving.
These were moderate conditions. If it was colder, the fridge wouldn’t have as much work. If it was hotter, the drain would be substantial. The sky was perfectly clear, though. On cloudy days, I might not be satisfied with one panel. Not sure if the answer is a 2nd panel or a bigger battery bank.
