ALLPOWERS SF100 Flexible Solar Panel 100W 24V / 12V IP68 Monocrystalline Solar Modules Bendable Semi-Flexible Mono Solar Panel 100 Watt for RV Roof Boat Cabin Van Uneven Surfaces

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!

Fits much better than my Renogy panel for my purpose (Renogy on the left, Allpowers on the right). Allows me to have 200 watts of solar and keep my Roof rack. The reason the front panels looks raised at the trailing edge is because I used 30lb magnets to allow some space for cooling. The rear panel sits on the raised channels so it gets airflow and wasn't necessary. As soon as I get my parallel connectors I will update the output.

Great panels, truly some of the best. But this one looks like it got shorted out. Looked like bird poop, but after looking at it under the layers of plastic. The sun is not out today because of the rain. So I can't test it out. They were working great yesterday then I noticed what looks like poop so today I was going to clean it off. Has anyone seen this before.WOW, was looking through the reviews and looks like my panels aren't the only ones that have bubbles. And Allpowers support is piss poor to say the least. My panels are just hanging on the side of my camper. No tape or glue to heat the panels up. I hope that Allpower will read this and acknowledge that some of there panels are flawed. I think I be looking for different panels with better quality and customer support.

Installed about 6 mos ago. They are a bit less flexible than I thought. They seem to be durable so far with no issues. I installed 4 panels with 2 each going to separate Renogy 40 amp solar controllers. They feed a 560 ah battery bank. I don’t tax the bank very much most days and a fairly sunny day will keep the bank topped up

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.

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.

The adapter for my jackery is a little sketchy but it works. If the cables are moved, it can easily fall out. If any part of the panel is shaded, the voltage drops by at least half. But other than that it performs well. In bright sun it generates 50 watts. My laptop was only drawing about 24 watts. At the end of five hours of use, both my jackery and the laptop were still fully charged. There are much better panels, but this one is well worth the price.
