Renogy 200W Portable Solar Panel, IP65 Waterproof Foldable Solar Panel Power Backup, Solar Charger for Power Station RV Camping Off Grid

Very satisfied with the product; RENOGY is a good and reliable brand. Delivery was impeccable and on time, the product was pristine, and the seller took the time to follow up on product quality and delivery, which is very much appreciated. Highly recommend !!!

This is a brilliant 200watt portable Solar Panel with amazing power output. I have tested it in my balcony on West window at 3pm in Mumbai and got a max 160watts reading on my Ecoflow Delta 2. I am sure it can churn some more digits of watts. Renogy+Ecoflow is an excellent combination. Good for camping and home power backup. Attached screenshot.

It works a treat! Plugged in to an Atom ESS 2200kw power station (via a 3.5m extension) it managed around 194W in full, bright sunshine. It still produces something even when it's a bit cloudy. I used it for the first time to top up the Atom and it worked. We charged phones, lights etc and boiled the kettle several times and still took it home with more juice in the Atom than when we started. The cable is a bit short which wasn't an issue as I needed to plug into an XC60 socket. Also, no other adapters supplied. Overall, I'd recommend it.

I paired this Renogy 200W Portable Solar Panel with my Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2, and it has proven to be a solid combination for camping and emergency power. Setup & Connections: Connecting the panel to the power station is simple with a Solar-to-XT60 adapter. I used a Bateria Power 10ft 12AWG extension cable. While the extra length is convenient for reaching from my truck bed to the station, the added resistance of the 10-foot run likely reduces the overall wattage slightly, but it is well within an acceptable range for my needs. Real-World Performance: Solar: With the panels laid flat on my truck’s tonneau cover under clear Utah skies, I am seeing about 154W of charging input into my Anker Battery. Hitting ~77% efficiency while laid completely flat (not angled) and running through an extension cable was impressive. Simultaneous Load: I also tested this while running my Dell Latitude 3550 (Core Ultra 7 155U CPU / Intel ARC Integrated GPU) at full performance. Even with an AI coding workload pulling approximately 60W of power from the battery, the panels provided plenty of overhead to run the laptop and charge the power station's battery simultaneously, and in the hour I used it, the battery never dropped below 99% and would hit 100% and automatically cut off the charging. AC Wall Power: For comparison, on a 110V outlet, it charges from 83% (my typical remaining charge after one night of CPAP use) to 100% in about 15 minutes. CPAP Reliability: My primary goal was to ensure I could run my CPAP machine indefinitely while off-grid. A typical night uses about 17% of the SOLIX’s total capacity, leaving the unit at 83% charge by morning. This solar setup recovers that 17% in less than 2 hours of decent sunlight. It also takes just under 2 hours to top off that same amount from a standard 12V vehicle accessory outlet. Future Plans: I am satisfied with the performance of this panel that I am considering adding a second set of identical panels to further reduce charge times or to account for less-than-ideal weather days. Pros: Solid real-world wattage (150W+ even when flat). Enough overhead to run a high-performance laptop and charge at the same time. Rugged and dependable for vehicle-based camping. Cons: Needs to come with a better case to protect the panels. Bottom Line: If you need a reliable way to maintain a power station for medical devices, high-end laptops, or off-grid work, this Renogy panel delivers. It’s efficient enough to handle daily CPAP usage with plenty of daylight to spare.

I paired this with a Blutetti Elite 30v2 which has a max of 10amp so I was bumping up against that 10 amp limit pretty consistently. After completely heat soaked at 4pm through a pigeon net. I was getting 155w into the Bluetti. This is a limitation of Bluetti as it was consistently hitting that 10 amp limit. To be fair this is probably overkill for the small 288w unit I own, I'll have to do proper tests charging my ebike with my boost converter which can take 15amps max. However since these panels all run in parallel you can literally shade an entrire panel and still get a 150w panel. So what I did is fold one side and the other to create a 100w panel which is great if you want a smaller footprint or you're in the woods and have a small sliver of sun and I got 87w on one set of 2 panels and 86w on the other on the stands which needed to be leaned down more to be fully aligned to the sun. That's 173w output. This is in alignment with people reporting between 170 to 190 out of this panel. If you could lean it on a fence or or a picnic table to properly align it I'm sure I'd get more. The legs are fine, however they only angle down to maybe 35-40 degrees or so, so in mid summer you are probably losing some watts during peak 10am to 2pm peak hours, in spring or fall you're good. I'm sure it was just a compromise for different latitudes. Fortunately it's small enough you can get creative if necessary angling it with a log, or the side of an RV, fence, whatever to properly angle it during peak summer months. However all that being said you could just set it to as low as it will go on the stands, with some minor adjustments to face towards the sun and you're still probably going to get at least 170ish with it, even completely heat soaked(I only test when heat soaked, not cold peak). You could probably be even totally lazy just face it due south and get some decent power out of it. Like I said even without any bypass diodes it's extremely shade tolerant. With me just putting my hand over the top of it the watts only drop maybe 10-15w which would kill a lot of panels that are in series. All in all for the amazing price of $215 Canadian you're getting a panel with over %80 efficiency(150w+) which is considered excellent for a panel for about $1 Canadian a watt, you can't go wrong. Because of the shading tolerance this can be a sort of "set and forget" if you wish if you're camping and going fishing, etc and still get decent power out it just by pointing it south and walking away for a few hours. No wonder they sold out so quickly.

Produit de bonne qualité, fonctionne parfaitement je recommande sans hésiter
