ALLPOWERS SP033 200W Portable Solar Panel Foldable, 23% High Efficiency Solar Charger with MC4 Connectors for Power Station, RV, Camping, Home Use, Compact Folding Solar Panel

A highly recommended product, easy to set up and charges up to 160W at normal usage with an Anker power station

I bought a panel and loved it.. so bought another for my friend.. it arrived in Nov.. but they never used it until July.. and it proved defective. so obviously Amazon wouldn't take it back so I reached out to the seller. they had me go through various scenarios to prove the panel was defective and send them video of my efforts. they didn't ask anything ridiculous to prove... just common sense actions to show the panel was not charging. then they told me they would send me a new panel.. and 5 business days later it was here. their customer service is outstanding and thorough. and I love their solar panels. I would recommend their panels to anyone.

I have the Allpowers 140 watt solar panel that is similar in design to this 200 watt panel. the major differences other than output power, is the build quality. The 200 watt panel is more rigid when setup the panel does not sag or droop nearly as much as the 140 watt when using the kick stand legs. Those legs are also different, on this panel the legs are slimmer and they snap off completely if you don't want to use them. I don't think I've used them correctly yet but I did use them while this panel charged my power station and they held fine on my lawn. 2 things to note: first, this is purely a solar panel, it has to be attached to something to be useful, it has no built in charging ports for any USB outputs, it must be connected to a compatible power station, charge controller, or other similar device to be useful. The Second thing to note is that the cables are short, and are unlikely to be long enough to position the panel to catch the best sun and to connect to a device that is not very portable. I use 2 of these along with one 140 watt panel all connected in parallel in a mini "solar farm" I had no issues with this setup. I did use a multi meter to check the output and found that the panel was producing almost exactly the power it was rated to produce, of course, like all solar panels, when there is a load the output power drops so it is unlikely that they will produce 200 watts of power while doing actual work. This rated vs actual usable power is extremely common with solar panels and is not an indication of any mis-leading or false advertising. Solar panels are rated under very specific conditions that are unlikely to happen in real world use, but this rating method makes it easier to compare and shop among different brands and sizes. I don't use panels like these in series because there is more potential to damage the panels when used in series. Also, Allpowers recommends using no more than 3 of these when connecting in parallel. Overall, I like this portable solar panel, it's just a simple portable folding solar panel and it works, I'll likely buy one more in the future to complete my mini solar farm.

I get about 110 watts maybe a bit more out of this all powers on bright sunny day. So not great but ok. I got the 200 watt solar panel half off. So I can’t complain. I certainly would not spend 400$ on it! Folds up nice and fairly small. Holds the adapter bits in pocket. Not bad, not great but for 200$ it’s worth it. Not at all waterproof. Renogy 100 watt cost about 120$ quite water resistant, almost waterproof and it puts out about 60 watts. I have a couple Jackery panels and they were 300$ for an 80 watt, fully waterproof and puts out about 70 to 74 watts. The 100 watt Jackery solar saga cost almost 400$ and puts out about 90 watts. I would buy the 80 watt Jackery and renogy again. Bang for your buck, output watts and water resistant factors. Not as small or foldable though. For the money of my most expensive ones I sure wouldn’t want to expose them to rain very often. For products that have to be used outside, they should be waterproof or fairly water resistant, in my opinion. Sucks having to babysit your panels all day. Any increment weather or chance of rain I leave the Jackery 80 and renogy out no worries.

Just opened it and inspected it. Very nicely made. The carrying case is so nice. I already have a 200 watt flexible Allpowers panel on the roof of my trailer and it's doing good. I'll be doubling up the two for cold and hot weather camping. Currently using an electric blanket for cold and a 5000 btu AC for hot weather. So nice to be propane free. UPDATE: Getting 212 watts from this 200 watt panel! Even happier with my purchase!

200 w nominal folding power that is compact and easy to transport. My primary application is for a demonstration kit to charge e-bike batteries (36 & 48 V) with a programmable boost MPPT charge controller. The panels arrived on-time and in perfect condition. A quick unfold of the panels and legs and unzip of the cable pocket and they were good to go. The output was about what I expected and others reported from the poly panels. They performed well in bright sun on a hot day ~ 160 watts and also fared well on a overcast day. Avoid partial shading as this quickly lowers the output. I would have given 5 stars but for one simple reason. The MC4 connector cables that are wired to the panel output are really way too short :( I work with solar and could quickly add some extensions - but I do feel that for panels like these the minimum cable length should be at least 2 meters long. The materials seem adequate, the legs are not super sturdy but they did work OK - including staying put in some light-moderate wind. I purchased this set on sale so overall a great little unit that is perfect for my application and a good value. Would buy again.
